charging
an

Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
upcoming
historical
film,
Padmavati,
will
feature
two
heroes.
Since
the
film
is
to
be
a
big
budget
period
drama,
the
53-year
old
director
is
leaving
no
stone
unturned
to
have
a
strong
casting.
We
all
know
that
Deepika
Padukone
has
been
signed
as
the
actress.
And
rumour
has
it
that
the
famous
director
has
zeroed
down
on
Ranveer
Singh
as
one,
he
is
on
a
hunt
for
the
second
hero
of
equal
stature.
Earlier,
it
was
said
that
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
wanted
TV
actor
Vicky
Kushal
to
play
the
role
of
Deepika
Padukone's
husband
in
the
movie
but
Deepika
wanted
an
A
list
actor
to
romance
on-screen.
Reportedly,
Deepika
will
have
many
intimate
scenes
with
her
husband
in
Padmavati.
But
Vicky
Kaushal's
loss
could
now
be
Shahrukh
khan
or
Hrithik
Roshan's
gain.
A
source
told
TOI
about
the
movie's
casting,
"Bhansali
wants
to
explore
the
Hrithik-Deepika
pairing
at
this
stage
since
it
will
be
a
new
pair.
But,
Shahrukh
Khan
has
also
shown
interest
in
the
project.
Since
the
project
is
scheduled
to
roll
in
September,
the
director
will
take
a
decision
shortly.''
