Deepika Padukone Padmavati
Earlier, we had reported that Sanjay Leela Bhansali will be treading once again into the path of a period drama with the epic saga of a beautiful queen named Rani Padmini or rather Padmavati. From what we hear, Bhansali’s blue eyed girl Deepika Padukone will be seen in the titular role of Padmavati in this drama.
Rumours claim that the date issues are proving to be a hindrance. Deepika Padukone is yet to sort out her dates to wrap up the film on time. On the other hand, the makers are finding it difficult to work it out since the release date of the film has been locked, which is mid December 2017.

The film will start shooting during September and will be shot over a few months across India. However, it seems that Ranveer and Deepika might not share screen space in the film as the man never meets his love in the original tale.
