Shahid Kapoor has put out the first official line out on the release of Padmavati, albeit in a cryptic format. There have been several rumours about the film being postponed due to the delayed shooting and the magnitude of the film’s postproduction process. There have been other versions of director Sanjay Leela Bhansali burning the candle at both ends to finish the film on time for a November 17 release.
When we asked the actor about whether Padmavati was releasing in the month of November as per schedule, the actor put the ball in the media’s court again. “We have not yet said anything about any delay. You guys are the ones deciding everything,” says the actor, who plays the character of Raja Rawan Ratan Singh in the film directed by Bhansali. The film co-stars Ranveer Singh as Allaudin Khilji and Deepika Padukone in the title role. Prod him again to reveal the date and he says, “You will know very soon.”
