"Plan tha ke Babur ki, Humayun ki kahani, Humayun ke baad Aurangzeb, Aurangzeb ke baad Shahjahan fir Akbar– aisa plan tha but abhi filhaal vo plan cancel ho gaya hai. (We had initial plans to proceed with the story with Babur, Humayun, Aurangzeb, Shahjahan, and then Akbar, but that plan has now been canceled)."
"Haalanki ye show bahut acha chala. (Although this show went really well) but they decided to not make season 2...mujhe pata nai kyun exactly but abhi to filhaal plan cancel hai (I don’t know exactly why, but the plan is canceled currently)," he further added.
Dino admitted on a concluding note, "uss kirdar ke liye kaafi taarif mili bahut taarif mili ...uske baad log chah rahe the ke aise sirf Khanzada aur Shaibani Khan ke upar kahani bane inki prem kahani ke bare mein vo but nai unfortunately no (I got a lot of appreciation for the character and fans were wanting to see a separate story on Khanzada Begum and Shaibani Khan, but unfortunately it’s not happening)."
