Nora Fatehi is such a vibe! 😍 Love how she always brings energy to everything she does. That contact name is hilarious - typical Nora style! Can't wait to watch The Royals this weekend.

Ishaan is such a talented actor, but I wish he'd choose more substantial roles. After Pippa, I expected him to do more meaningful cinema rather than just commercial projects. Still, excited for this series!

The cast looks amazing! Nora as a dangerous princess? Count me in! Though I hope the writing does justice to all these talented actors. Indian web series are getting better each day. 🤞

That BTS pic is so cute! Their chemistry looks great. I'm more excited for this than most Bollywood movies releasing these days. OTT content is where the real talent shines these days.

Honestly, I'm more excited about Bhumi Pednekar's role as a CEO. We need more strong female characters in Indian shows. Though Nora's princess does look intriguing! Weekend plans sorted. 🍿
