And now, in a recent interview, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was seen sharing interesting anecdotes about the web-series. He said, "Because I have always wanted to be lost. This is the biggest set I have made in my life. Because it's really that walls have been pushed way beyond what I thought. I would ever be able to push as a child which I thought it was. So I feel I have started enjoying and understanding more and more as my filmmaking has progressed.” He continued, “I have started enjoying creating walls at a distance and further and further. But I never want to dictate. I feel I have set it. The audience will find what they want to see. A lot of time people have criticised that we have so much to see that for the first time we miss the essence of the scene."

Helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the show also features Shekhar Suman and his son Adhyayan Suman, Fardeen Khan, Taha Shah Badussah, among others. Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar is an eight-part series that is scheduled to launch across 190 countries on Netflix on May 1.
