In a groundbreaking announcement that bridges cinema, literature, and gaming, legendary Indian actor Amitabh Bachchan has officially stepped into the world of video games as the Co-Founder of Tara Gaming Limited. Joining him in this ambitious new venture are bestselling author Amish Tripathi and veteran game producer Nouredine Abboud. The newly formed studio today unveiled the first trailer of its flagship AAA action-adventure game, The Age of Bhaarat, promising to put India on the global gaming map.
Set in an epic reimagining of ancient India, The Age of Bhaarat blends cinematic storytelling, mythical lore, and next-gen gameplay to deliver a uniquely Indian gaming experience for PC and console players worldwide. The game’s first look offers glimpses of sweeping landscapes, mythical creatures, formidable warriors, and powerful story arcs deeply rooted in Indian heritage—brought to life with technical brilliance and cinematic flair.
Bringing India’s Epics to the Gaming World
Tara Gaming’s vision is crystal clear: to combine India’s immense storytelling traditions with world-class game development. Despite India’s rich trove of mythology, epics, and folklore, these stories have rarely been represented in global AAA games. The Age of Bhaarat is a direct response to that gap, aspiring to deliver a high-fidelity experience that pays homage to India’s past while embracing modern storytelling and gameplay mechanics.
“Gaming is where stories come alive for the next generation,” said Amitabh Bachchan. “India has always been a land of powerful stories, and through this game, we have an opportunity to share our epics, creativity, and imagination with the world.”
Bachchan’s involvement marks a major endorsement for the gaming industry in India, and his commitment to storytelling is expected to add unmatched depth to the game’s narrative.
A Powerhouse Founding Team
Amish Tripathi, known for his bestselling Shiva Trilogy and deep knowledge of Indian culture and history, brings literary gravitas and historical authenticity to the project. “We’re beyond honoured to welcome Amitabh Bachchan ji,” said Tripathi. “The trailer perfectly captures the bold vision we have to present Indian itihaas in a modern, cool context.”
Nouredine Abboud, a globally respected game producer who previously worked on Ubisoft’s Ghost Recon Wildlands and Driver, provides decades of AAA game development experience. He emphasized the global relevance of Indian narratives, saying, “The Age of Bhaarat has always been a passion project. With Mr. Bachchan onboard, our conviction has only grown stronger.”
