Bajirao Mastani is Sanjay Leela Bhansalis most gorgeous - and most political - movie. Peshwa Bajirao( Ranveer) stretches the Maratha empire across 18th century India, fighting Mughals and rivals for Chhattrapati Shahu( Mahesh) . Suddenly, Bundelkhand requests protection, Bajirao approached by its half-Muslim princess Mastani( Deepika) .
As Bajirao-Mastani fall in love, how does his wife Kashibai( Priyanka) react? And can Bajirao-Mastani battle the bitter opposition they receive?
Bajirao Mastanis most outstanding star is its cinematography. Every visual resembles a grand painting - courts with shadows and chandeliers, courtiers with tilaks and teers, chambers gleaming with mirrors, skies blushing with passion. Certain shots - Bajirao leaping up an elephant - stamp themselves onto your memory.
