"The Royals" - Netflix - May 9, 2025


 ABOUT THE SERIES

"THE ROYALS"


When Aviraaj Singh, the polo-playing, pleasure-seeking, party prince, heir to the royal throne of Morpur, meets high-functioning, tightly wound, ace CEO Sophia Kanmani Shekhar, sparks and insults fly as they reluctantly come together to save his royally dysfunctional family from financial ruin and to save her own leading startup of luxury homestays in India from shark investment bankers. Two worlds, one of dwindling aristocracy and the other of racing capitalism, converge and throw up a whirlwind of clashing ambitions, steamy romance, and fashion-forward Instagrammable moments. The Royals is a breezy romcom with a side of dreamy palace life, under the blazing royal sun.


Creators Rangita Pritish Nandy and Ishita Pritish Nandy shared, “With The Royals, we’ve mounted a romance that whips together the old-world charm of palaces and Indian royalty with glass-walled boardrooms and modern reality—where love is anything but easy. The series is about two people from completely different worlds, each fighting their own battles, constantly at odds, yet irresistibly drawn to each other in ways they never expected—remember how you never want the good one but always chase after the one you know is trouble?—that’s the Royals for you. As they clash, challenge, storm, and rage against each other to prove their worth, they must also discover whether their love can survive the chaos within them. Expect drama, humour, and a whole lot of fire! This is our first baby with Netflix, and we’re thrilled to partner with them and take The Royals beyond borders—to a global audience.”
