It's Work In Progress
A Pinkvilla report stated a source working on Takht, as saying, "The team is currently working rigorously to get the research material and everything in place.

How the houses were, how the warfare looked like - all of it is being properly looked upon."

A huge set will be built in Mumbai and work on that will also begin soon. As of now, Takht will roll out by the end of 2019 or early next year around January 2020," the source further added.
Takht Will Be Like The K3G Of Mughal Era
Karan Johar was earlier quoted as saying, "Takht is the most passionate piece of material that I think I will ever direct. I'm hugely passionate about it.
I'm obsessed about the Mughal era ever since I can remember. That's the one part of history that I was obsessed about in terms of its visual texture, its controversial content, the political betrayal, the love, the lust, the decadence, the debauchery, the madness, the violence, everything. That era is exotic and it's gorgeous. It's absolutely beautiful."

He had further added, "It's something that I've always chased and wanted to kind of put up there and finally when Sumit Roy, the writer, came to me with the story of Dara and Aurangzeb, which is pretty much the first time I'm saying that what Takht is about.
I think it is that part of history that I'm so passionate about. I can't wait to get into the prep mode which I've already started off."
