According to reports, Sanjay Leela Bhansali has finalised Fawad Khan to star as Deepika Padukone’s screen husband in his period epic, Padmavati. Reportedly, Fawad was in Mumbai for the past couple of weeks, finalising the deal.
A source was quoted saying, “Bhansali wants 200 days from all his lead actors, including Ranveer Singh (plays Alauddin Khilji) and Deepika (Padmavati). Fawad has those days to spare. In between, he has Karan Johar’s production, but it should not be a problem as KJo and Bhansali share a good equation. So they will work it out. It’s too big an offer for Fawad to pass up.”
The source added, “The first schedule is with Deepika and her husband’s character. The scenes between Deepika and Ranveer are being shot separately as they never meet in the film. Initially, a TV actor was to be signed, but Deepika put her foot down. A random actor from television won’t do for her. While she has no scenes with Ranveer, she shares some intense romantic and lovemaking scenes with her husband, so she wants a big star as her hero.” More-Info , waploft
