Ever since Karan Johar has announced his magnum opus, Takht, there has been tremendous excitement amongst fans and critics to see how will he conceive and project a period drama, a trajectory so far reserved for filmmakers like Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Ashutosh Gowariker. And given Johar's penchant for working with big stars, he assembles the largest cast in his career for this period drama.

Talking about the film, Anil Kapoor even said in one of his interviews that he has never done a film on such an epic scale before. Well, going by the fact that the team will have a 170-day schedule, Johar is surely making sure India witnesses the biggest period drama of the Millennium!
