Deepika Padukone goes in for minimal makeup look in Padmavati

Sep 212017

padmavati-first-look-a (1) After battling incidents of vandalism and workers’ union strike, the ‘Padmavati’ team has overcome all adversities to make it in time for the release by the year-end. Sanjay Leela Bhansali kickstarts the promotional spree of his labour of love today, by launching the first look of Deepika Padukone from the film. The filmmaker thought it apt to bring forth his vision of the legendary Rani Padmini as the country prepares for devi sthapana (first day of Navratri).

A unit hand says, “Since ‘Padmavati’ celebrates Indian culture, today served as an apt occasion to launch the first look.” Bhansali has a knack for doing justice to Padukone’s ethereal beauty in his films. Considering Rani Padmini was famed for her beauty, the curiosity around Deepika Padukone’s look in the film has peaked. A source close to the production reveals that she will be seen sporting a minimal makeup look in the film that also stars Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor.

The source says, “We did thorough research on Rani Padmini — from the kind of outfits she wore to her makeup. Women back then used natural ingredients to enhance their beauty. Bhansali was certain that he wanted to retain the authenticity. So, Deepika used very little makeup for her role. It would take her 30 minutes to get ready.”

Despite being the queen of Mewar, Padmini’s outfits have been influenced by Sinhalese style. “Since Padmini originally belonged to Sri Lanka, her outfits have a strong Sinhalese touch, although they are regal Rajputani attire.”

Given their success rate at the box-office and their shared affection, it is not surprising that Padukone was the first choice for Bhansali. “He believes that she is his lucky charm. It was an unsaid thing that Deepika and Ranveer will come on board for this film.”
Bhansali says, “I’m happy to bring the story of ‘Padmavati’ to the screen. It was a fitting date for us to launch the first look of the film and celebrate this auspicious occasion.”

'Padmavati' made with good intention, says Shahid Kapoor

Celebrities

Jul 302017

Shahid Kapoor

His upcoming period-drama “Padmavati” may have been mired in controversies, but actor Shahid Kapoor said the film did not have anything objectionable and was made with “good” intention.

The Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed period drama faced the ire of certain groups, who attacked the filmmaker and also damaged the film’s set, alleging distortion of history over the depiction of queen Padmavati.

When asked if certain scenes have been changed post that, Shahid told reporters, “According to me, I have not shot any scene which has been changed. I think there were a lot of presumptions about the film, and people were presuming there were (certain) things in the film. “The clarification has been given that those things are not in the film. I hope when people see the film, they realise that the heart of the film and intent of the film is very good.”

“Padmavati”, which stars Deepika Padukone in the titular role, Shahid as Rawal Ratan Singh and Ranveer Singh as Alauddin Khilji, is scheduled to release this year on November 17.

“This country and the people who live in it, and specially the area we are talking about in the film, will be glorified and shown beautifully. I play a Rajput king and my character, I feel, will be admired by people,” Shahid said on the sidelines of Big Zee Entertainment Awards, last evening.

“Padmavati” marks the first collaboration between the “Haider” star and Bhansali, and Shahid said he was thrilled to work with the director. “It’s an intense, romantic and a very looked-forward-to film for various reasons. I think it’s a labour of love of Bhansali. I had gone mad on Twitter after watching his last film (‘Bajirao Mastani’), appreciating everyone, and didn’t know I’d be part of his next film.

“It’s awesome to be working with someone whose work I have admired and loved, especially in the recent past. It is a great cast and going to be a huge film. I am really excited, but I want to underplay it, so I am trying to do that right now.”

This year has been one of the most controversial leg of IIFA Awards, with a huge number of people on social media started calling out IIFA awards and several celebrities for being biased and partisan. A lot of controversies surfaced after the award function was screened couple of days ago. one prominent one was over Sushant Singh Rajput’s incoherant tweet, in which he tagged IIFA’s official award. Shahid Kapoor won the ‘Best Actor’award for ‘Udta Punjab’. And it seemed as if Sushant Singh Rajput wasn’t too pleased with it. He put out a tweet saying., “

.@IIFA hahahaha

The timing of the tweet looked suspicious and soon people began to think that Sushant Singh Rajput had taken a jibe at Shahid Kapoor as he won the award, and not him. But now sources close to the M.S. Dhoni actor said that it wasn’t so and the tweet about SSR’s own performance at the IIFA Awards. They claim that Sushant, tweeted it immediately after his performance and not when Shahid received the award.

Deepika Padukone getting a whopping Rs 12 crore as remuneration for Padmavati

Celebrities

Jul 082017

Deepika-Padukone- If sources are to be believed then Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone is getting a whopping Rs 12 crore as remuneration for her upcoming film ‘Padmavati’. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali the film also stars Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor in pivotal roles.

Deepika Padukone has apparently devoted an entire year for the period drama ‘Padmavati’, in which she is essaying the titular Rajput queen. Sources say this could possibly justify her astrnomical salary demand.

Deepika Padukone has ranked 10 in world’s 10 highest paid actresses’ list alongside Hollywood heavyweights Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts and ‘Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston. Deepika became the only Indian actress and the sole newcomer in Forbes’ 2016 list of the ‘World’s Highest-Paid Actresses.’

According to India Today, when Deepika was recently approached for a film featuring one of the Khans, she quoted the same sum as ‘Padmavati’ as her asking price. The producers were taken aback at this, since it’s a two-heroine film and the other actress, would also have a list of her own demands. But, sources say Deepika remaind adamant.

Deepika Padukone has been a part of recent box-offices successes like ‘Bajirao Mastani’ and ‘Piku’.

Deepika Padukone is also set to feature in the fourth outing of the ‘xXx’ franchise. Deepika made her Hollywood debut opposite Vin Diesel in ‘xXx: Return Of Xander Cage’ that released in January this year.

‘Padmavati’ starring Ranveer Singh, Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone is set to release on November 17.

Shahid Kapoor forced to shun Juhu home, moves into Goregaon five-star hotel

Celebrities

Jun 232017

A hectic shooting schedule for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s period drama-Padmavati, coupled with Mumbai’s testing traffic, has compelled Juhu boy Shahid Kapoor to shift base to a popular Goregaon five-star in a bid to minimise the time spent on commute.

Shahid has taken a cue from his co-actors, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, and moved closer to the Film City set to successfully negotiate his acting commitments and fitness routine.

A source tells mid-day, “Shahid would spend four hours travelling. He moved into a Goregaon hotel for the previous schedule, given that it is closer to Film City. He would start shooting early in the morning and continue working till the wee hours of the next day. Since he needed to sport two distinct looks for the film, working out was crucial. Shahid will stay there for a few weeks.”

The father misses spending time with his daughter Misha. A unit hand informs, “One day, after an early pack up, Shahid’s wife Mira, and Misha, came to visit him. Along with Ranveer, Deepika, and other key cast members, the trio had a small gathering at the hotel.”

Given that Shahid Kapoor continues to interact with ‘Padmavati’ co-star Ranveer Singh, can rumours about an apparent rift be put to rest? “They are competing, but it’s a constructive and healthy competition. They both have well chalked out roles and scenes. The rumours are bogus. Off set, they are quite warm with each other,” the source says.

In order to reside closer to the Film City set while filming Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani (2015), Ranveer had first moved into a five-star, and then purchased an apartment in the vicinity. His rumoured flame Deepika Padukone is also put up nearby. She spends her time in a five-star, or at Ranveer’s residence.
