Takht is Anil Kapoor's first-period film and the actor says he is slowly getting into the headspace of his character in the Karan Johar-directed feature. Kapoor, who will reportedly play the role of Shahjahan in the film set in the Mughal era, said he is equal parts scared and confident about working on the historical drama.

"I am slowly getting into it. I'll be able to tell you what my headspace would be close to the filming. But at the moment it’s a mixed emotion. Excited, worried, apprehensive, and confident. It takes time to get... Your character builds slowly. So I'm processing that now," Kapoor told PTI. Takht chronicles the story of two warring brothers and also features Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor.
