The series features a majestic star cast with the likes of Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sharmin Segal and Sanjeeda Sheikh playing the lead characters. Netflix released its slate of major series and films for 2024 and Heeramandi shined the brightest among all.

Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar story
While the release date of the series is not out yet, the posters suggest that Bhansali is going to paint the OTT platform as a grand canvas – the way he has done on the big screen with his visual spectacles like Devdas, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Bajirao Mastani, Gangubai Kathiawadi and Padmaavat among others. As per the makers’ statement, ‘Heeramandi delves into the intricacies of a power struggle between arch nemeses Mallikajaan and Fareedan for the succession of Heeramandi, a realm where courtesans reign as queens (sic).’
Alam is the youngest daughter of Mallikajaan and her last hope for the future of Heeramandi. The choice lies with Alam to choose between the power or the love of one man over the admiration of many. Heeramandi is set in the pre-independence era and shows an ultimate saga of love, power, struggle, vision, dreams, relationship and betrayal.
This is Bhansali’s next after the massive success of Gangubai Kathiawadi with Alia Bhatt. The filmmaker is currently busy shaping up his next titled ‘Love and War’ with Vicky Kaushal, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Watch this space for all the latest updates on Heeramandi.
