THROWBACK: When Priyanka Chopra left everyone speechless on being asked if she wanted to play Deepika Padukone’s Mastani in Bajirao Mastani

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani brought two leading actresses, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone together in 2015. While Priyanka played the role of Peshwa Bajirao’s first wife, Kashibai, Deepika was cast in her titular role, his second wife, Mastani. Despite having less screen time, PeeCee brought grace to her character with her acting prowess. “Aap humse hamari zindagi maang lete, hum khushi-khushi de dete, par aapne toh humse hamara guroor hi chheen lia.” Remember? Priyanka once left everyone speechless when quizzed about her wish to play Mastani in the film.

During her interaction with reporters at an award show in 2016, Priyanka Chopra was asked if she insisted Bhansali to play Deepika Padukone’s role in Bajirao Mastani. PeeCee stated that her residence is filled with flowers suggesting her appreciation for Kashibai’s role.

“Aapne film dekhi hai? Toh main kyun karti? Kashi pasand aayi? Mera ghar dekhna, garden ban gaya hai! (Have you watched the film? Why would I play Mastani? Did you like Kashi? You should have a look in my house, it has become garden),” the Desi Girl said.

During an old interview with Film Companion, Ranveer Singh, who played the lead role of Peshwa Bajirao, revealed that Priyanka Chopra cried on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani. Ranveer shared that PeeCee wanted to quit the movie on the third day of the shoot as the actress wasn’t prepared for Bhansali’s “unique” style of direction.

The actor recalled witnessing Priyanka “out of whack” for the first time and that the actress was concerned about not shooting a single shot till 9 pm. On Day 3, Priyanka initially decided to quit and go home.

Priyanka recently visited India for her brother Siddharth Chopra’s wedding festivities and promoted her Marathi production, Paani. PeeCee jetted off from Mumbai airport on August 27. She bid adieu to the city after catching her flight.

On the work front, Priyanka Chopra has wrapped up the shoot of her upcoming Hollywood film, The Bluff in America. Priyanka also has an action-comedy, Head of State, in her kitty which co-stars John Cena, Idris Elba, and Jack Quaid.

THROWBACK: Did You Know Hrithik Roshan can eat 8 samosas at a time? Actor’s response to ‘where does it go’ takes the cake

Actor Hrithik Roshan is fondly regarded as the ‘Greek God of Bollywood’. Apart from his acting, the superstar oozes mind-blowing dancing skills that he often showcases in his movies. While Hrithik follows a protein-rich diet and consumes low-moderate carbs to stay fit, the actor is a big-time Indian snack lover. The Fighter actor once spilled the beans about his eating habit that he can eat 8 samosas at a time. Don’t miss his hilarious response at the end.

In an old interview with Zoom, Hrithik Roshan expressed his love for samosas while promoting his 2017 film, Kaabil. When quizzed about the number of samosas he can consume at a time, the Kabhi Khushi Kabie Gham actor initially mentioned that he can eat 25 pieces.

“Whenever I am watching a film, I start by 4 samosas and that’s two in each. So it’s 8 samosas. That’s what I sit with (sic),” Hrithik said, leaving his co-star Yami Gautam surprised.

The interviewer went on to ask “Where does it go?” To which, the Kaabil actor quipped, “Inside me.” Yami Gautam, who sat with him during the promotion, reacted to Hrithik’s love for samosas by saying it reminded the actress of her past.

This will take you back to Hrithik Roshan’s character Rohan Raichand being in love with food in the first half of Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Remember how Hrithik’s younger version, Rohan (played by child actor Kavish Majumdar) gorged on burgers, laddoos and whatnot?

Directed by Sanjay Gupta, Kaabil starred Hrithik Roshan and Yami Gautam in the lead roles. The 2017 film also featured Ronit Roy and Rohit Roy in crucial roles. The story of Kaabil revolved around Hrithik’s character Rohan Bhatnagar, a blind dubbing artist. Yami was cast as his on-screen wife, Supriya Bhatnagar in the movie. It was produced by Hrithik’s father, actor-filmmaker Rakesh Roshan.

Hrithik Roshan will next be seen in Ayan Mukerji’s directorial venture, War 2. It is the sequel to the 2019 film, War, helmed by Siddharth Anand. Hrithik also has a cameo in Yash Raj Films’ upcoming spy thriller, Alpha, headlined by Alia Bhatt and Sharvari.
