Ranveer Singh revealed the challenges & why he cried on the sets of Padmavati!

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh who is known for his upbeat attitude and livewire personality recently revealed the challenges has faced while shooting for the upcoming magnum opus Padmavati . The film has been facing a lot of protests and difficulties for its release. The movie has been shifted from its original release date twice and now the makers are trying their best to bring the historical drama on the big screens soon. In an exclusive interaction with an entertainment magazine, Ranveer opened up about his experience on working with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali .

Ranveer said, “ Mr Bhansali has always had a very hands-off approach with me in the previous two films, (Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela and Bajirao Mastani); he lets me freestyle, but this time he had a clear vision of what he wanted, the way he wanted Alauddin Khijli to be. So, take his direction and try and apply it was very challenging, sometimes. And there were times I wouldn’t get it and I’d leave the set and cry. And come back and try to finish it.”

The actor further said, “I don’t cry very often, but I am not one of those people who doesn’t cry either. I cry, it’s okay, it’s healthy.” The movie also stars Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor in key roles.

Talking about all the controversy, “I am a very differently wired person, so for me, the process itself is the prize. I really feel for my director and producer, who is very special to me and I have the utmost regard for him as a creative mentor- he really helped me unleash and unlock my potential as an artist, he’s made me the actor I am today. To see him suffer this way really troubles me, but for my part, just the fact that I went out and shot this film for one full year, is the prize itself.”
