National
Award
winning
actress
Priyanka
Chopra,
who
earlier
called
Mary
Kom
her
toughest
film
ever,
says
her
new
film
Bajirao
Mastani,
a
period
drama,
is
testing
her
acting
skills
too.
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
Bajirao
Mastani
marks
actress
Priyanka's
first
period
film.
"It's
my
first
period
film
and
it
is
very
difficult
to
do
a
period
film
which
narrates
a
story
about
an
incident
that
happened
about
500
years
ago,
with
no
reference.
The
role
is
tremendously
hard," the
actress
told.
The
film
is
based
on
the
love
story
between
Maratha
Peshwa
Baji
Rao
I
(Ranveer
Singh)
and
his
second
wife
Mastani
(Deepika
Padukone).
Priyanka
plays
Kashibai,
the
first
wife
of
Baji
Rao.
"The
role
is
probably
one
of
the
most
difficult
that
I
have
done
till
now.
It's
because
it
is
based
in
the
era
where
I
need
to
be
correct
in
the
period
and
the
culture.
The
role
is
heart-breaking
as
well.
It's
testing
me
as
an
actor," Priyanka
said.
Priyanka,
who
was
in
the
capital
to
unveil
the
Girl
Rising
campaign
in
India
recently,
expressed
her
desire
to
revisit
a
negative
role
a
la
the
sex-deprived
boss
she
essayed
in
Aitraaz.
"I
so
want
to
do
a
negative
role
as
they
are
very
different
from
real
you.
You
can
be
whatever
you
want
and
evil,"
the
actress
said.
"As
of
now
I'm
not
doing
anything
negative.
But
I'm
looking
at
few
things...let
us
see,"
the
actress
added.
