Based on the epic poem by Malik Muhammad Jayasi, ‘Padmaavat’ tells the legendary story of Rani Padmavati, a courageous Rajput queen, portrayed by Deepika Padukone.
The film explores her unmatched beauty and strength, and the relentless pursuit of Sultan Alauddin Khilji, played by Ranveer Singh, to conquer her kingdom. Shahid Kapoor stars as Maharawal Ratan Singh, Padmavati’s devoted husband, adding emotional depth to the narrative.

The movie also features a stellar supporting cast, including Aditi Rao Hydari, Jim Sarbh, Raza Murad, and Anupriya Goenka.
Not only was ‘Padmaavat’ a historical drama, but it was also a visual masterpiece. The film’s opulent sets, elaborate costumes, and stunning cinematography were complemented by a soundtrack that became iconic.
Composed by Bhansali himself, the music featured memorable tracks such as ‘Ek Dil Ek Jaan’, ‘Binte Dil’, ‘Ghoomar’, and ‘Khali Bali’, which resonated with audiences long after the film’s release.
This re-release marks the third collaboration between director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the power couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, following their earlier successful films ‘Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela’ and ‘Bajirao Mastani’.
