Junaid expressed his gratitude for the positive reviews, stating he is thrilled that audiences worldwide are watching his debut. "I cannot explain in words what I'm feeling right now. Maharaj has been a long and wild journey for me, but all's well that ends well I guess," he said.

He added, "Maharaj was made with a lot of love, respect, and passion. I'm glad that the film and my performance are resonating with the audience at large."

Junaid further commented, "I know I have miles to go and lots to improve upon. I just hope I get a cast and crew as supportive in all my future work."

'Maharaj' is based on one of the most significant legal battles in Indian history: the 1862 Maharaj Libel Case. Directed by Sidharth P Malhotra and produced by YRF Entertainment, the film stars Junaid Khan alongside Jaideep Ahlawat and Shalini Pandey in pivotal roles. Sharvari makes a special appearance.

The film is set in pre-independence India and follows the journey of Karsandas Mulji, one of India's prominent social reformers. This David vs. Goliath story highlights one man's courage to stand against the injustices of his time.

Critics and fans have praised 'Maharaj' for its powerful performances. Junaid Khan's debut has been described as refreshing, while Jaideep Ahlawat's portrayal has been noted for its strong presence.
