Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati has been making news from last few months due to its casting. Well, the official announcement of the cast is now made by the Bhansali productions.
The announcement was made on Twitter today. As per the tweets, it is confirmed that Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Shahid Kapoor are playing the lead roles in Padmavati. A few days ago, there were rumours that Ranveer isn’t happy with SLB for casting Shahid in the film. Reportedly, he also told Sanjay to chop off Shahid’s role and narrow it down to a mere cameo. Well, today’s revelation has put an end to all the rumours.
In the film, Shahid will be essaying the role of Raja Rawal Ratan Singh, Deepika will play Rani Padmavati, and Ranveer will portray the role of Alauddin Khilji.
