Manoj on 'Secrets of the Kohinoor': Revelations in the documentary took me by surprise

Acclaimed actor Manoj Bajpayee, who has collaborated with Neeraj Pandey for the series 'Secrets of the Kohinoor', has said that the revelations made in the documentary about the precious diamond 'Kohinoor' took him by surprise.

Manoj said: "Despite being talked about for years, there are many facts about the Kohinoor that were unknown to me, and I am certain, they would be unknown to a majority of the world as well. The revelations made in the documentary took me by surprise and I cannot wait for viewers to explore this untold story and be just as surprised."

The docuseries uncovers aspects like how over the years since its discovery, the weight of the diamond has been slashed down to less than six times its original weight; or that the Kohinoor, which we want to call our own, might not be the same diamond Emperor Babur mentioned in his memoir.
