Neeraj Kabi, who essays the role of Akhtar Baig, said on the series, “Taj Mahal 1989 is a relatable series of love, power and relationships. The slow and uncomplicated lives of the characters, and the premise of the series takes you back in time to an era when love and its manifestations were seemingly simpler, but a deeper look reveals otherwise. It’s the simple complexity of the narrative that drew me to this story and I am excited that Netflix is taking this small-town love story to a global audience, because no matter where you are from, you will relate to the pain of love and heartbreak.”
Geetanjali Kulkarni, who plays the pivotal role of Sarita Baig in the series, said about her role, “I’ve been working in films and television for decades, and being able to now work on a Netflix series is an opportunity for me to further explore my craft as an artist. My character in the series is honest, layered and finding love from her husband after marriage. Taj Mahal 1989, is not an ordinary love story; it’s a complex web of emotions, and yet there is a sense of simplicity and relatability which makes this series the perfect love story to watch on Valentine’s Day.”
Come fall in love, the old-school way, this Valentine’s Day with Taj Mahal 1989.
