Sanjay Leela Bhansali leaves no stone unturned in making his film to perfection. He is now getting his 'Bajirao' -- Ranveer Singh -- trained in one of India's oldest forms of martial arts, the Kalaripayattu.
The training is done near the set, where Ranveer comes and practices every day after the shooting of the film.
The film narrates the story of the Maratha Peshwa Baji Rao and his second wife Mastani. Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Priyanka Chopra star in lead roles, with Tanvi Azmi portraying a supporting role. "Bajirao Mastani", originally casting Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai when announced in 2003, was shelved for 10 years as Bhansali went on to make "Black" (2005), "Saawariya" (2007), "Guzaarish" (2010) and "Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela" (2013). Speculation remained about the resurfacing of the project, with Shahrukh Khan, Ajay Devgan, Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif linked to it at various times.
In July 2014, it was confirmed that Bhansali had revived the project with Ranveer and Deepika playing the titular roles and Priyanka Chopra playing Bajirao's first wife Kashibai.
"Bajirao Mastani" scheduled for release on 25 December 2015.
