I had no idea that I have fans here,” exclaims a surprised Richard Madden, when we tell him that his character Robb Stark enjoys wide popularity in India. The actor shot to global fame in 2011 for his portrayal of the righteous ‘King of the North’ in Game of Thrones. “We shot Game of Thrones mostly in Ireland, knee-deep in mud. To think that lots of people in India loved it is mind-blowing,” he beams.
Now, the path-breaking fantasy drama is behind him, and Madden is on to what might well be the next path-breaking spy thriller — Amazon Prime Video’s marquee series, Citadel. On his maiden trip to India, the actor is equally surprised by the excitement that the Russo Brothers’ production has generated among desi audiences. “Now that I am here, I am blown away by how big this show is. I have lived with it for five years,” he says.
