I told it much before the release that Mastani is a crap role. Its Kashi who will steal the show. 😃

As far as central roles go, the film benefits from a nice touch of playfulness and humor in Priyanka Chopra's Kashibai. Your heart goes out to her in scenes where she must confront the fact that she's not Bajirao's great love. Chopra brings grace to the character, and practically steals the film. ((pause)) Deepika Padukone as Mastani is a woman of exquisite beauty. You're captivated by the heft that Padukone lends to her fight scenes, or when her eyes speak more of her suffering than words. Her character, though, is strictly one-dimensional and therefore tedious.
