Netflix’s Heeramandi isn’t just about the courtesans; it also throws light into the lives of royal nawabs, zamindars, British officers, and the revolutionaries who raised a rebellion against the British empire. Among these characters is Tajdar Baloch, Nawab Asfaq Baloch’s son, who hails from a royal business man family that owns a lavish hotel in the heart of Lahore city. Tajdar crosses paths with Alamzeb, a courtesan (or tawaif) from Heeramandi. As the story moves further, Tajdar finds himself in a really difficult situation. He is forced to make a choice between his love for Alamzeb and his loyalty to his nation. Through Tajdar’s character transformation, we can’t help but empathize with the young Nawab as he struggles with love, and duty. Let’s dive into Tajdar’s character, portrayed by Taha Shah Badussha, and explore his journey in more depth together.
