Actor Jaaved Jaaferi is set to feature in Karan Johar's much-anticipated period drama "Takht".
"Takht", which marks Johar's first attempt at directing a period drama, traces the relationship between Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and his brother Dara Shukoh.
Jaaved will play the head priest in Mughal emperor Shah Jahan's court, he said.
"I'm playing the head priest of Shah Jahan's court. I'm the qaazi who is in-charge of all the religious affairs. It's a very strong part," the 56-year-old actor told PTI.
"Takht" features a star-studded cast of Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Anil Kapoor,
