Films and shows such as Game of Thrones, Gladiator and Troy may belong to a previous era, but they owe their look and feel to prop shops in Meerut and Dehradun. Lord of Battles is a Dehradun-based manufacturer and exporter of period props who has supplied to films and shows like Game of Thrones and Assassin’s Creed. Rangarsons is the prop shop owned by Manjot Rana. Lord of Battles has more than 3000 items such as chainmails, plate armours, leather armours, medieval  costumes, helmets, shields, axes, camping kits, horns and bone products. Their research throws up intricate details of ancient weaponry. These companies supply products abroad, and do not retail in India. India tops the list of companies supplying period props and China is a distant second.
