This period drama is about the ruler Alauddin Khilji, who falls in love with the queen of Chittor Rani, Padmavati.

Director SLB has already begun the shooting of the film with Deepika on November 1. “Yes, technically speaking, it was Deepika who faced the camera first for the film, since she is playing the title role. Sanjay sir also felt that she has been his lucky charm. So she shot for over two hours on the lavish set created in Mehboob Studios,” a source said.
