PC is an outstanding actress but I dont know why SLB has casted her for a non titular role. I mean the film is about Bajirao and Mastani but it seems she will steal the show with her performance. However, the fact cannot be denied that her screen presence will be lower than the rest. Also if PC has to win an award for her outstanding performance, she will get it in the supporting lead role. Its not fair for PC.

The role of Kashi is actually minimal, but SLB has manipulated it with dances and others. PC was definitely the right choice for the role but if they casted a not so known actress, then the focus could have shifted more on B and M. but now people will definitely be considering PC as the power pack of the film, even though her role is of the supporting actress.

I don't think for an ounce of a second that PC is wrong choice for BM. The response she is getting is fantastic.

Even though the movie is about bajirao and mastani... Priyanka is still one of the leads in the movie. She will be nominated for best actress not supporting. Supporting is for secondary characters and kashibai is not some secondary no matter how small her role. Just like DDD anu and Priyanka were both main leads.
If she does get nominated for supporting actress I think it will be very unfair. Unless they portray her has negative in the movie then she might get best negative actor nomination.

I'm only watching this movie for PC! As long as people watch, it's a good choice! So what if she overshadows the rest? she overshadowed Akshay and Kareena in Aitraaz as well! 👍🏼

PC is awesome and all but don't write off DP till you see the film. People thought Diana Penty would steal the spotlight in Cocktail going by the promos and look what happened.

TM is saying that casting a powerhouse actress like PC in the "wife" role has messed up all the intended dynamics of the movie and what it's supposed to primarily convince you of: Bajirao and Mastani's "epic" love story. Meaning that PC as an actress is so convincing that people aren't going to buy Bajirao & Mastani's love story or romance.

From whatever I've seen of the trailer, this observation couldn't be more spot on. They indeed should have cast a lesser known face or a worse actress than Deepika if they really wanted people to root for Bajirao and Mastani. You never make the competitor to your protagonist, forget just as good, but even better.
