Bhansali's
much
talked
about
film
Padmavati.

has
kick-started

luck
guys.
Shahid
plays
the
role
of
Raja
Rawal
Ratan
Singh
whereas
Deepika
Padukone
essays
his
wife
Rani
Padmavati.
Ranveer
Singh
has
been
roped
in
to
play
Sultan
Alauddin
Khilji.
Bhansali's
film
revolves
around
Alauddin
Khilji
and
his
obsessive
love
for
Queen
Padmavati
of
Mewar.
Said
to
be
his
most
ambitious
project,
the
movie
will
be
about
the
queen's
courage
to
fight
her
undefeated
nemesis.
Shahid
is
quite
excited
to
work
with
Deepika
for
the
first
time.
In
an
earlier
interview
he
had
said,
"In
Padmavati,
we
have
a
lot
of
work
together
and
I
am
really
looking
forward
to
working
with
her.
I
have
been
seeing
her
do
some
great
work,
especially
in
the
last
few
years.
She
has
really
upped
her
game
and
she's
at
her
best
right
now.
She's
probably
doing
better
work
than
many
today.
So
that's
awesome.
It's
great
that
we
are
working
together
in
a
film
like
Padmavati
because
it's
a
great
opportunity
for
anybody
who's
a
part
of
this
film.
I
really
feel
that
Padmavati
is
going
to
be
a
special
film."
Padmavati
is
slated
to
release
on
17th
November,
2017.
