anticipated movies this year. The movie
starring Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh
and Shahid Kapoor is all set to release on
December 1, 2017.
The makers will kickstart the promotions
with the Ghoomar song which will be
unveiled later today. Deepika who was seen
acing Garba steps in Ram Leela and Lavani in
Bajirao Mastani will be seen performing
Rajasthani folk dance, Ghoomar, in
Padmavati.
To get the form correct, Deepika learned the
dance form from Ghoomar expert Jyoti D
Tommaar, who also runs a Ghoomar school
which was founded by Late Padmashree HH
Rajmata Geverdan Kumariji of Santrampur
(former Princess of Kishangarh, Rajasthan).
Ghoomar is a traditional dance form of
Rajput women where they twirl in circles. A
source told a leading daily, "It is an
extremely difficult performance art that
takes years to learn, Deepika had to pick up
the steps within a matter of days and she
mastered it. Deepika did over 66 twirls while
shooting for the song, dressed in an
extravagant costume and adorned in heavy
jewellery."
Deepika Padukone too commented on it and
said, "It has been one of the most difficult
song sequences that Sanjay sir and I have
shot for. The shooting of the film began
with this song and I will never forget that
day. I remember approaching my mark for
the first shot and suddenly, I felt a chill run
through my body. It was almost as if
Padmavati's soul had entered my body. That
feeling still lingers and will continue for
years to come.
