Shahid Kapoor Turns Padmavati Set Into No-Phone Zone

It’s a known fact that people present during a film’s shoot are usually denied usage of mobile phones in order to prevent any information from getting leaked. Well, Sanjay Leela Bhansali is one such director who doesn't approve of the idea of using cellphones on set. And it seems like Shahid Kapoor, who is working on the filmmaker’s next project, ‘Padmavati’, along with Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, is following suit.

According to recent reports, Shahid is ensuring that the set turns into a no-phone zone. A source revealed, “Shahid Kapoor is trying to set an example by depositing his phone with the security guard as soon as he arrives for shoot. Usually, actors are accompanied by their managers, who take calls on their behalf. But Shahid doesn't believe in that practice. Moreover, he doesn't want any distractions”.

“The film has been mired in controversy for long, delaying the shoot considerably. Every detail of Rani Padmavati's story, as Bhansali sees it, has become national news. It is important that the film is able to present something fresh. The actors, along with Bhansali, are taking every possible effort to ensure that there are no leaks from the set — whether an actor's costume or any detail of the set”, the source added.

Well, Shahid apparently is leading by an example. On a related note, ‘Padmavati’ is being jointly produced by Bhansali and Viacom 18 Motion Pictures.
