Meanwhile, "Secrets Of Sinauli: Discovery Of The Century" uncovers the mysteries behind the excavations of Sinauli (a village in UP). The show will cover the timeline of the finds, the artifacts, and the people involved across each stage of the discovery.

"Being a part of 'Secrets Of Sinauli: Discovery Of The Century' was enriching in many ways because I got to learn so much more about ancient India. I have been able to see ancient Indian history from a new perspective and to know that this excavation is just the tip of the iceberg, and there is lots more to be discovered in the timeline of Indian history with regards to the Sinauli excavation is certainly exciting", Manoj Bajpayee said.
