Ranveer Singh on his role in ‘Padmavati’: It’s very difficult

Ranveer Singh, who was last seen in Aditya Chopra’s ‘Befikre’, will next be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Padmavati’. The actor will be seen as Sultan Alauddin Khilji in the film, and recently, while talking about his character, Ranveer said it’s very difficult.

He said, “It’s very difficult. It’s physically, emotionally, mentally very draining. It’s my biggest challenge yet as an actor. I prepared very hard for it, almost a month. We have started shooting and Bhansali is pretty happy with the way things have shaped up.”

“I am excited to get back into it after the Christmas break. It’s something I am still grappling with, still exploring, still discovering the character,” Ranveer added.

For his role in ‘Bajirao Mastani’, Ranveer had locked himself in a hotel room. The actor said, “This time (for ‘Padmavati’) I didn’t have a hotel room but had the whole apartment to myself. I actually had more time for this character than I had for Bajirao. For Bajirao, I had around 18 days, this time I had around 21.”

‘Padmavati’ which also stars Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor is slated to release in November 2017.
