Filmmaker Sanjay leela Bhansali's ‘magnum opus' project, a tumultuous love story, is finally set to go on floors with rumoured couple Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone are playing the lead roles. While Ranveer will play the role of the 18th century Maratha general and statesman Bajirao Peshwa, the project will also have Priyanka Chopra in a key role.
“Preparation for Bajirao Mastani is very intense. I will have to learn Marathi, horse riding, pick up the accent and do a lot of work for the character. I will have to shave off my hair, work on my look and the physical aspect,” Ranveer said.
