Padmavati: Are these Ranveer Singh, Shahid Kapoor’s looks from the film? See pics

Days after news came that the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film will be delayed, Ranveer Singh has now revealed what appears to be his look for the film. Kohl-eyed and bearded, the actor sure looks in his Khilji get-up. As fans posted and re-posted his brave new look, this seems to put the lid on how Padmavati is very much on. The actor looks kind of a badass — we would say in tune with his character Khilji who was a ruthless king — as he posed for the cameras.

Meanwhile, days ago, Shahid Kapoor was seen sporting a handlebar moustache. He put the image on Instagram and was also seen outside Bhansali’s office where he kept a hat on. Shahid is playing Deepika’s husband, Raja Ratansen in the film.

Kohled and bearded, is this Ranveer Singh’s new look for Padmavati?

Now for those who came in late, here is a recap of every controversy which Padmavati has been besieged. It all started with rumours that Deepika had said no to Masaan actor Vicky Kaushal playing her husband in the film. It appeared that Deepika wanted a prominent star to play the role and Fawad Khan’s name was also mentioned in this regard. However, after a few days, buzz began that Bhansali had roped in Shahid to play the role. With the actor being on a paternity break at that time, the shooting could only began in October.

After Shahid entered the scene, Ranveer reportedly started demanding a meatier role for himself. He was often seen outside Bhansali’s office late at night and it was finally all smoothed over.

Deepika was allegedly being paid a record amount for the film, which made her India’s highest-paid actress. Bhansali’s rep later refuted the rumours.

The Bajirao Mastani team of Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Deepika Padukone is back with Padmavati.

On top of all this, Hardik Patel-led Patidar Navnirman Sena (PNS) has threatened to launch a protest against Padmavati. PNS wants assurance from Sanjay Leela Bhansali that the director will portray Rani Padmvati according to historical facts. Till then, they would not allow Bhansali to shoot the film in Gujarat.

“Every person is proud of Maharani Padmavati, who sacrificed her life for the self-esteem of Chittorgarh. Along with 1,600 other queens, she died of jauhar, (self-immolation) when Alauddin Khilji had attacked Chittorgarh,“ he was quoted as saying. “However Rajasthan-based Rajput Sena’s members met me and informed that SLB has not studied the history, and could damage the image of Rani Padmavati. So, we’ve informed him to stop the production of the film and hold discussions with Rajput leaders before he begins shooting. Bhansali should give assurance of not damaging Rani Padmavati’s image, or else Patidar Navnirman Sena will hold protests against the movie across the country, and will not give permission for the film to release in Rajasthan. No director has the right to damage history for entertainment.”
