In an interesting inside info we have come to know about Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. Salman Khan was the first choice of Sanjay Bhansali to play role of Bajirao along with Aishwarya Rai playing role of Mastani. But fate had other things in mind, as Salman and Aishwarya had a nasty break off Sanjay couldn’t cast Salman and Aish.
Time and again the film kept on creeping in minds of Salman and Sanjay. Salman Khan wanted to do the film so much that once he had taken Katrina Kaif right at Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s home and said that she is the mastani. And that is how Salman Khan was desperate to cast Katrina as Mastani. Things again didn’t work out.
Finally Sanjay Leela BHansali went ahead to cast Ranveer Singh in this role with Deepika Padukone playing role of Mastani.
