Bajirao was just a year younger than mastani.

^^ No. HR is too tall and imposing for a brahmin Peshwa. Horrible choice. Ajay is too dark. Ranveer, physically, fits the bill. Not too tall or imposing, not too dark or too fair. Just that his voice is not deep enough and delivery is weak.

Deepika, funnily enough, is a Konkoni Brahmin herself.


But Ranveer is dark, he doesn't look the Brahmin many are describing here, light eyes and skin. Going by the teaser, he looks very underwhelming as a warrior especially out on the battle ground. And in some parts, looks very boyish than the man I would have preferred seeing as Bajirao plus his dialogue killed the mood SLB went out to set in the theme.

Going by the suggestions, Varun has the looks and intensity...

Shahid. Not cause I'm a fan, because I have recently seen Haider. Two differ characters ... but he has the ability.


Ooo yes, I think Shahid would have been perfect. And it would have been a treat to see him in a period film.

I am always of the view that any good actor can pull any other good actor's role off. It's just that the movie would be different... HR, Ajay, Akki may be... not so many from new bie.. may be RK..

pehle film aane do...those who wished their actor to be bajirao... sorry fellas, bad luck...😆

understand that bajirao is prime minister and warrior.. he is not a king... hrithik wouldn't be perfect... ajay would have been equally good as ranveer... but he demanded high fees and bhansali is not some1 who will bow down to aire gaire stars like ajay.

pehle film dekho aur if ranveer doesnt do the justice, then start topics...
jobless haters!😆

from whatever we have seen, there is not a single soul who has felt ranveer is miscast..so f##* off


hrithik is a good actor, he can do most everything but comedy, he plays intense well, i.e. fiza, mission kashmir, ja.

First of all who would sacrifice 1 year into making this periodic film. And also maintaining a shaved head for such a long time. Hiding that look, other than Ranveer no one else would agree. Not Hrithik nor Ranbir. Definitely not the 3 khans.

Also Slb is potraying Bajirao life from Age 20 to late 30's when he dies on battlefield. No way he could take 40 plus actors.

Also I heard SLB is very strict he blasts out at actors if things dont go his way. We heard many news of Deepika crying during Ram leela when she couldn't get the monologues right. Most of the Top actors wont be able to put down their ego and be cool with it.

Ranveer's dedication shows well, he looks like a maratha brahmin too, acting looks flawless of what I've seen, and that last line in the trailer was well said with a marathi accent.



shahid and salman have both shaved their heads

Many actors could've 'done' the part but hardly anyone could've looked the part.

Shahid, Hrithik don't look Marathi at all. Ranbir I'm not sure looks like Marathi and is too lanky to look like a warrior.

Ranveer was the apt choice for Bajirao
