Mumbai, India June 16: Amazon MX Player, India’s leading free, premium, ad-supported video streaming service, recently launched its six-part period drama Made in India - A Titan Story. As the series continues to win praise from critics and audiences alike, Naseeruddin Shah's portrayal of J.R.D. Tata emerged as one of the most celebrated performances from the series. Bringing remarkable restraint, depth, and quiet authority to the role, Shah's interpretation of the visionary industrialist has struck a chord with viewers, adding emotional weight and authenticity to the story. Reflecting on the experience, the veteran actor opens up about stepping into the shoes of one of India's most revered business leaders and the creative collaboration that made the journey memorable.
Speaking about essaying the character of J.R.D. Tata, Naseer Sa’ab shared, "J.R.D. Tata was singular in a way that is difficult to articulate. What fascinated me most was not his stature but his restraint; he carried his greatness quietly, almost as a matter of habit. I have played many characters over the years, but portraying J.R.D. came with a huge sense of responsibility because of the legacy he represents. I am delighted that Made in India - A Titan Story gave me the opportunity to explore him."
Reflecting on working with Jim Sarbh, he added, "Jim has something that cannot be manufactured, he listens. Genuinely, completely. On camera, that is rarer than it sounds. His theatre foundation has given him a rigour and intellectual seriousness that translates beautifully on screen, and in a series as layered as Made in India: A Titan Story, that depth matters enormously. Working with him is, without hesitation, always a genuine pleasure."
Made in India - A Titan Story is now streaming for free exclusively on Amazon MX Player, available across mobile devices, Connected TVs, Amazon’s shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, Jio TV, and Airtel Xstream.
