Outlander is one of the most popular TV series which is set in medieval times. It is a historical drama based on a novel of the same name by Diana Gabaldon. The show is based on a World War II nurse who finds herself transported back to 1743 Scotland. She comes across a Highland warrior and marries him, in the process getting tangled in the Jacobite risings.
The series started in 2014 and is still coming up with new seasons. If Outlander was remade in Bollywood, here’s a cast that seems perfect for the roles.
