New Delhi: Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh will surely be seen as Alauddin Khilji in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's (SLB) period drama 'Padmavati'. The film will be special as it will mark the return of the deadly trio"Ranveer, Deepika Padukone and SLB once again.

While Ranveer had previously refused to comment on his role but now costume designer Ajay Kumar has spilled the beans on his social media handle. Yes! He posted on Instagram, ""#Working mode #onn it's #slb office #ease during #lease #padmavati #deepikapadukone #costume #design a #film to remember #ranveersingh," Ajay wrote alongside a photo of himself and his team discussing work on the movie.

The designer shared a throwback picture of Bhansali and the 31-year-old actor from the sets of "Ram Leela".

He captioned the photo, writing, "Some #rare picture of #slb n #ranveersingh in the #memories of #Ramleela !!! #bhansali sir is #ready for the #pose while he is #unaware of #background n his #frame is not #cleared yet! it's #hatrick #combo for #Padmavati and off course for #me too."

"Padmavati" will be a hat-trick for the trio - Deepika, Ranveer and Bhansali. The movie is based on Alauddin Khilji's obsession for Mewar queen Padmavati.
