Debuting Pukhrambam Shyam with Tushar Amrish Goel as the director, and featuring renowned film and theatre actor Paresh Rawal, the film will deliver a thoughtful, and engaging story framed around history in India and spark a conversation.

What Makes The Taj Story An Unmissable Event?

The Taj Story investigates the “Tejo Mahalaya” hypothesis that the Taj Mahal was built upon a Hindu temple. The story follows Vishnu Das (Paresh Rawal), a local guide who initiates a legal case to investigate the childbirth of the Taj Mahal. What is spectacular about this film in the Entertainment space is its frankness about taboo subjects, packaged through a courtroom narrative with debates and testimony.

The movie asks the question: "Even with decades of independence, do we still live in intellectual boundaries?" This punchy theme is meant to excite the brain and appeal to the viewers' attention by unfolding fact-finding and dramatic tension simultaneously.

Cast, Crew, And Production Highlights Of The Taj Story

The movie features a commendable cast which includes Paresh Rawal, Zakir Hussain, Amruta Khanvilkar and Namit Das, in addition to a remarkable cast and crew behind the camera. CA Suresh Jha produced the film via Swarnim Global Services Pvt. Ltd., the film was shot at real locations like Agra and Dehradun to produce a more authentic setting and experience. Shooting at the Taj Mahal required special permissions to shoot on site, and the crew followed all preservation protocols professionally. 

The official announcement was in late 2023 when the film began shooting through 2024 and wrapped in November 2024. The official trailer is already all over social media and caused a lot of banter, making The Taj Story one of the biggest stories in India right now. 

Why The Taj Story Is Making Headlines In Entertainment Circles

The Taj Story has provoked conversations on social media and in news as a film, but more than that. Its interpretation of history associated with the Taj Mahal challenges established beliefs and promotes some level of critical thinking about public narratives about this famous building. The symmetry between the film's promotional image of Lord Shiva's statue emerging from the dome of the Taj and the hope that the film offers something new, but returning to historical fact in a dramatic presentation challenges audiences to think, but also provoked controversy and curiosity as evidenced by some of the reviews. 

Paresh Rawal himself addressed the concerns and criticisms, and clarified his desire that the movie was just about presenting history narrated facts dramatically. He also noted that an open discussion is needed, rather than period reports on what propaganda. This marriage of entertainment and bold history is what distinguishes the film from most 2025 developments, including other films.
