No she isn't. But I do feel her expressions are slightly a let down compared to PC.

Kareena and Sonakshi as well.I liked KK in Asoka and Sonakshi in Lootera.Would love to see Sonam in a historical/period movie tho!

Deepika totally lacks the old-world charm and regal otherworldly aura with her gangly frame and two left feet 👎🏼 plus she is a mediocre actress with a horrible dialogue delivery, cheap ghatiya downmarket accent and also she resembles a possessed giraffe when she dances 🤢 Also both her and Ranveer give off sleazy vibes! They lack the class and elegant big time with their crassness 😵 So I am expecting them to reprise their 'horny psychopaths' act from Ram Leela in BM all over again 👎🏼

and also, how the heck will SLB pass her off as a Persian beauty when DP looks like an out-and-out South Indian? 😕 Not to mention, the real Mastani was beautiful unlike DP who is no looker with her harsh,masculine features 😵

This is HOW the real Mastani looked like...God knows how DP fits the bill?

🤣 🤣

Oh you're right, Kangana could've done it. I remember in OUATIM she looked so regal in those olden day outfits! She would've gotten into character. Also she's worked a lot on her dancing I think she could do that too. Like in tanu weds manu those expression changes during the songs were awesome

I agree! Kangana Ranault would have killed it. She would have elevated the quality of the movie to another level. + She can be a match & more for PC acting-wise. Dipla looks like she is modelling historical costumes. She did not convince me in Deewani at all! PC outshone her already in the 10 seconds she was on screen.

Sonakshi would have been great too, she has magnetic eyes &would be a convincing fighter. Women back then were not skinny.

Sonakshi would have suited the role much better.

Under SLB, she would have shown her dance jalwa as well. She had some good dances in that movie Rajjo . Granted she is not known as a dancing queen, but that's because her roles haven't demanded that from her. In TWMR, she did a great job though dancing per Tanu/Datto's body language.

I have a strong feeling that SLB will direct Kangana next. There were rumors in Aug 2014 timeframe that they had discussed an idea for a movie after BM. Hope that happens...

Nah. She is perfect for the role. She looks stunning. I think she is the biggest attraction for the movie

Deepika these days looks downright ugly to me with her fake skin tone, eyebrows n choosa hua face!

Someone tell her, putting on white make up does not make her look beautiful!

I have little knowledge about Mastani but she defo can't be passed off as a court dancer!

DP is main attraction in BM. No other actress from current comes anywhere near to her.

for me too. She the biggest asset in that movie. I am not excited by PC & RS. But of course PC+RS+DP best combination.

Kangana? 🤢🤢🤢 Overacting all the time. She only can be dark side girl/women. I don't think SLB wanted Kangana as lead. But she can be supporting actor or sideline actor as drunken girl or playing as postwoman or may be as delusion women. 🤣😆😆😆
