In a world-class global event last evening in Mumbai, Netflix announced The Royals, a Pritish Nandy Communications show, as part of India Slate 2025. A one-minute teaser of The Royals was also released.

Created by Rangita and Ishita Pritish Nandy, The Royals features actors Bhumi Pednekar and Ishaan Khatter, supported by a powerhouse ensemble cast including Zeenat Aman, Sakshi Tanwar, Nora Fatehi, Milind Soman, Dino Morea, Chunky Pandey, Sumukhi Suresh, Lisa Mishra and others.

Monika Shergill Vice President Content, Netflix India said "In 2025, we are redefining storytelling by pushing creative boundaries like never before, delivering an unparalleled variety of world-class entertainment. From dreamy romcoms and high-stakes dramas to action-packed thrillers, beloved fan-favorite franchises, and laugh-out-loud comedies, there’s something for everyone. Collaborating with India’s most celebrated storytellers and fresh voices, we’re bringing this dynamic slate to life. With over 700 million viewers, we refuse to be just one thing — we strive to be the best at everything. And no matter what you're expecting, you’ll never be fully prepared for what’s next on Netflix."

Rangita and Ishita Pritish Nandy, known for their contemporary pop culture and spirited storytelling, shared: “The Royals being our very first with Netflix had to be just the right blend of coming-of-age-India, Gen Z storytelling and feisty fun! There is the inevitable romance of old royalty; monarchs without crowns, and the incredible drive of today’s startup warriors for whom crowns hold zero shine. Sparks and insults will fly when these 2 worlds clash, and that has been great fun for us to create and produce! We’re thrilled to be a part of the Netflix family and partner with them to take our tale of a girl-meets-boy, the classic maharaja (king) and aamkumari (commoner) tale, to a global audience.”
