Ajay Devgn Was Approached For Bajirao Mastani, Not Padmavati

According to the recent reports by the media, actor Ajay Devgn was supposed to step into the shoes of Allauddin Khilji instead of Ranveer Singh in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati. However, the Bhansali Productions have denied the same stating it as an irrelevant PR. They said that it wasn’t true at all.

A source in the know revealed, “Ajay was never offered Padmavati. The Khilji role was Ranveer Singh’s from the very start. Ajay had been offered Bajirao Mastani; he was the first choice for the role. And Bhansali sir was keen to team up with him again after Hum… Dil De Chuke Sanam. But things didn’t work out then”.

It has been heard that Ajay demanded a huge price for Bajirao Mastani, which is the reason Bhansali cast Ranveer. Moreover, it has been learned that Ranbir Kapoor was the first choice for Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela, which starred Ranveer Singh. However, Ranbir refused to collaborate due to some reasons best known to him. Who also pledged to never work with Bhansali.
