Bhansali creates two striking worlds- one of Alauddin Khilji which is dark, grim and unkempt. The other is of Ratan Singh and Padmavati in Chittor- which is lit up, decorated and pristine.
Set in 1303 AD during medieval India, "Padmaavat" tells the fearless story of Queen Padmavati, played by Deepika Padukone, and her battle against the ruthless Sultan Alauddin Khilji. (Ranveer Singh).
