Good over evil, this intense ‘Padmavati’ look of Shahid is in perfect sync with Dussehra spirit

The posters of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s magnum opus ‘Padmavati’ have generated a lot of buzz. Now, on the occasion of Dussehra, Shahid Kapoor, who plays the role of Maharawal Ratan Singh in the movie has shared a glimpse of his eyes and sharing the intense picture, he has given it a perfect caption which reads, “Happy दशहरा। Here’s to celebrating the triumph of good over evil.”

We’ve seen his look in the posters before, but with every picture, the curiosity increases manifold. Ranveer Singh’s look is yet to be unveiled and we are sure it’s going to be as interesting as Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor’s looks. Recently in a Twitter chat, Shahid was asked by a fan as to what’s the one thing he liked the most about his character. Shahid replied, “Courageous fearless. Respectful to women.” True gentleman!

Of late, there have been reports of how Shahid co-star in the movie, and also his nemesis, as far as their respective characters are concerned, Ranveer Singh, the actor locked himself up in an apartment to get into the skin of his character. A source revealed to us, “Ranveer actually has his friends worried. To play Alauddin Khilji, he has been researching and exploring extreme negativity. He is a friendly, warm young man, like all of us. To become Khilji, he took the same route as he did to play Peshwa Bajirao. He locked himself up in his apartment, prepped and stayed in the head space for weeks. Getting out of this dark, intimidating mindset wasn’t easy for him. The film has also been shot for almost a year now, so sustaining the Khilji persona was very challenging. It affected his reactions and behavior towards people. Which is why, his friends advised him to get help in emerging beyond Khilji. He is going to a psychiatrist to get rid of the Khilji influences.” We hope that the ever happy and exuberant actor is back to his usual self pretty soon.

Lastly, the movie which has been creating lots of noise will hit the big screens on December 1 this year.
