Fawad Khan All Set To Play Deepika Padukone’s Husband In SLB’s Padmavati?
After a lot of speculation and rumors, the actor who’ll play the role of Deepika Padukone’s husband in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati has been finalised. And it’s none other than Fawad Khan!
“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 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.”
This will surely be an interesting film to watch.
Recently, Fawad and Deepika walked the ramp for Manish Malhotra at a recent fashion show and they look like a dreamy couple. Their fans wished to see them together in a movie and it seems their dream is getting fulfilled with Padmavati.
