Sony Entertainment Television’s epic historical drama Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan is gearing up for a pivotal leap in the storyline. Viewers will soon witness an elder Prithviraj Chauhan with actor Samarthya Gupta stepping into the role of the brave king. His entry marks a new era for the show promising to bring deeper emotional gravitas and showcase one of history’s unforgettable love stories – Prithviraj and Sanyogita.

Samarthya shared, “When I was offered the role of one of the bravest kings, Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan, I was filled with pride. He was a true warrior who dedicated his life to protect his motherland. The role isn’t easy, as I need to prepare myself both physically and emotionally. I’m really looking forward to this new journey I’m about to embark on.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
