Introducing a regal king by blood, and fearless warrior by instinct; Disney plus Hotstar unveiled the first look of actor Kunal Kapoor from the upcoming series 'The Empire', a magnum opus mounted on an unprecedented scale.

The 'Rang De Basanti' actor makes his digital debut with this monumental period adventure drama as he essays the role of an emperor with a fierce and edgy appearance that is both powerful and intense.

Created in conjunction with National Award-winning filmmaker Nikkhil Advani of Emmay Entertainment, the series tracing the origins of a dynasty promises a magnificent visual spectacle mounted on a scale not seen on the digital realm before.
