Jubilee has echoes of Bollywood’s early past, especially with its history with Bombay Talkies and Devika Rani. Set in 1947 Bombay, the newly independent nation is captivated by the stars of the silver screen. The impressive period drama is grand in scale, which can be seen in its production design and costumes. There seem to be some original songs created for the series as well by the ace music composer Amit Trivedi.

Talking about the series, director Vikramaditya shared, “Jubilee has been a love story in the making for me ever since I was an assistant director enamored with the world of the movies, even when there wasn’t a story to tell. While the series is set in that celebrated era of cinema, at its core, Jubilee is a very human story, with narrative themes that will resonate with everyone – which is what drew me to the story in the first place. We’ve painstakingly researched each aspect of the series to remain true to its era. It’s been the most incredible journey made with the support of a terrific studio, with some of the most amazing actors, and with the best possible crew ever. Every day on this series has been a delight and I cannot wait for the world to see the work that we’ve all done.”’
