About

A heritage walk at Redfort , curated by Darwesh Heritage walks in collaboration with Sabhyata Foundation

Step into the high-stakes world of the Mughal court with a heritage walk through the Red Fort (Lal Qila), a UNESCO World Heritage site and silent witness to India’s most dramatic power struggles.

Commissioned by Shah Jahan, this citadel tells a story that goes beyond architecture—it is a saga of imperial opulence, political intrigue, and a brutal war of succession.

Unique in history, this battle for the throne unfolded while the Emperor was still alive. We explore the fierce rivalry between Shah Jahan’s sons—Dara Shikoh and Aurangzeb—and the strategic alliances of their sisters, Jahanara and Roshanara Begum.

The experience features immersive (Dramatic Reading) in Hindustani, bringing to life the voices of the royals who changed the course of Indian history. From the shimmering halls of power to the shadows of betrayal, join us to uncover the human stories etched into these red sandstone walls.
