About 'Glory'

Set against the backdrop of Haryana, Glory opens with the enigmatic death of Nihal Singh, who was seen as India's hope for an Olympic boxing medal. As ambition intertwines with vengeance, the series explores a complex web of relationships, power struggles, and betrayal, where the quest for glory becomes intensely personal. The narrative follows Dev and Ravi, two deeply layered characters facing transformative challenges. Their journey is fraught with difficulties, as "glory demands tyaag, balidaan aur kasht" (sacrifice, loss, and suffering). Divyenndu portrays Dev, while Pulkit takes on the role of Ravi, both of whom are boxers, with Suvinder Vicky as their coach. The cast also includes Jannat Zubair, Ashutosh Rana, Sikandar Kher, Kunal Thakur, Sayani Gupta, and Yashpal Sharma. Created by Karan Anshuman and Karmanya Ahuja, and produced by Mohit Shah and Anshuman under the Atomic Films banner, Glory is penned by Anshuman, Ahuja, and Vaibhav Vishal, with direction by Karan Anshuman and Kanishk Varma.
