We are almost like the beauty and the beast in Padmavati, reveals Deepika on Ranveer!

Bollywood stars Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are all set to come together on the silver-screen for the third time after Ram Leela and Bajirao Mastani in Padmavati. The alleged couple has not been paired opposite each other in the movie.

About working with Ranveer in Padmavati, Deepika revealed in an interview with a tabloid, “It is very weird! Sanjay sir brought the two of us together for two love stories and then he decided to put us in some kind of hate story. We are almost like the beauty and the beast in Padmavati.”

The movie has been willingly delayed by the makers and will not release on 1st December, 2017. About the disputes surrounding the movie, Deepika revealed, “We are extremely proud and confident of the film we have made. When the heart is in the right place, no one can stop a film. While working on the film, as artistes, we were in a different zone. I only spoke up last month after I finished the film and came out of that zone (she reacted to a group of protester in Surat damaging a rangoli inspired by Padmavati). That’s when I wondered for how long are we going to remain silent? For how long would the entertainment industry be made a scapegoat for everything that happens in this country? I believe we are constantly answerable to everyone for some reason or the other. Why attack cinema which is full of love and which brings people together? Why curb people’s freedom of expression? How long can we allow some people to get away with what they have been doing?"


"When you know someone in a certain way, to turn that dynamic on its head is quite challenging. We didn’t meet during the shoot. We didn’t have any idea about what the other person was doing,” she further added.
