The much-awaited trailer of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani was released on Friday. The veteran director’s magnum opus tracks the love story of Maratha warrior Bajirao (Ranveer Singh) and his second wife Mastani (Deepika Padukone).
As with all of Bhansali’s films, the trailer promises rich cinematography and an elegant screenplay. It is hard to miss the famed on-and-off-screen couple's chemistry in the short trailer.
Priyanka Chopra plays Bajirao’s first wife in the movie. The trailer also gives a tantalising peek into the battlefield of the yesteryears in the backdrop of the love saga. Soon, #BajiraoMastani started trending on Twitter and people had rave reviews for the period drama.
The film is slated for a December 18 release along with SRK-Kajol starrer Dilwale.
