Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA passion project for director Sanjay Leela Bhansali since the 1990s, even before he made his directorial debut, Khamoshi the Musical (1996). The film was first announced in 2003. Bhansali initially wanted to cast Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, his lead pair from Straight from the Heart (1999), as the lead actors, with Bhoomika Chawla playing Kashibai, but his plans fell through when the real-life couple had a messy, highly-publicized breakup. Bhansali kept Khan on and approached Kareena Kapoor to play Mastani and Rani Mukerji to play Kashibai but shelved his plans and moved on to other projects after Khan and Kapoor both signed on to star in Kyon Ki... (2005), as he had wanted to be the first director to unite the pair, as he stated on the talk show Sanjay Leela Bhansali & Aishwarya (2004). Over the following decade, Bhansali kept expecting the project to be his next film, with several major actors being approached or rumored to be linked to the project, including Shahrukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif, while some in the industry believed it would never be made, calling it jinxed. The project was finally properly revived in 2014 when Bhansali finally decided on his lead actress from Mary Kom (2014), Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and his lead pair from Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela (2013), Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone.

Featured review
Nice costumes, great cinematography and good music, lyrics and direction of the movie. Performance-wise: Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra followed by Deepika Padukone. Here are the ratings. Ranveer Singh: A; Priyanka Chopra: A; Deepika Padukone: B+; Overall, a great movie to watch. Ranveer Singh did his career-best performance. That was amazing to watch him prepare for and act as Bajirao. Priyanka Chopra completely eclipsed Deepika Padukone. Bhansali should have switched roles for PC and DP. PC is at her splendid best that showcased her acting brilliance. This was quite evident when the duo danced together. Overall, PC is a much better actor than DP in this movie. Deepika Padukone did whatever she could. Overall, a great movie to watch!!!
