Jalal al-Din Khwarazmshah is the ruler of the Khwarazmian Empire, which launched a united struggle against Mongol invasion in vain. After multiple unsuccessful attempts by the previous Khwarazm rulers, Jalal al-Din developed a united front to stop the Mongols by putting aside the dynastic fight between Seljuks and Khwarazmians.
Recently, Mehmet Bozdag announced that he is working on a series based on the life of Turkish ruler Jalal-al-Din Khwarazmshah. Bozdag said that he began working on the project two years ago after the Uzbekistan government approved their request for the show.
Also, 13 episodes of the series have already been shot. Bozdag said that the series sees them try and “offer a new perspective in terms of cinema language,” but did clarify that the work was an “original concept”.
“We tried to present Uzbek culture, geography and history of Transoxianan region in this series,” he said.
It currently sounds interesting and we cannot wait to see what Bozdag has in store for us. Stay posted for more updates.
