Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone, known for her excellent acting and professional style, has once again proved why she is one of the most popular actresses in the industry. Recently, during the prestigious ‘Jagran Film Festival 2026’ held in the capital Delhi, well-known film producer Shobha Sant has made such an interesting and surprising revelation related to Deepika Padukone, knowing which everyone is praising her. The untold story behind that iconic and hair-raising scene of the blockbuster film ‘Padmavat’ directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali has now come to light.
The truth of that historical monologue and Jauhar scene of ‘Padmaavat’
As soon as the name of the film ‘Padmavat’ comes, the scene of bravery, courage and Jauhar of Rani Padmavati comes before the eyes, seeing which even today the audience gets goosebumps. Shobha Sant, the co-producer of this film, while participating in the Jagran Film Festival 2026, shared her experiences during the shooting of this scene. He told that the powerful monologue given by Rani Padmavati just before the climax of the film and the subsequent Jauhar scene was very challenging for any actor. The makers had reserved one to one and a half days of time for this very sensitive and extensively shot sequence, because technically and emotionally it is not easy to bring such scenes on screen.
The charisma was completed in just half a day and in a single take.
Shobha Sant further revealed that the scene for which the entire unit had set aside more than a day, Deepika Padukone, with her amazing preparation, concentration and acting, got it shot in just one take without any retakes. That single take shot of Deepika was so spectacular and emotional that everyone present on the set was stunned. The producer said that due to the quick completion of this scene, not only the hard work of the crew members was saved, but Deepika’s efficiency and her deep commitment towards her character was also revealed to the whole world. The dedication of Deepika, who reached the pinnacle of Bollywood on her own without any film background, shows that she fully deserves her success.
Onscreen chemistry and great work front of Deepika Padukone
Not only acting, but talking about the coordination of personal and professional life, Shobha Sant also praised the onscreen chemistry of Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone. From ‘Goliyon Ki Leela Ram-Leela’ to ‘Padmavat’, the magic that this power couple has spread on the screen is unmatched. Both the actors are very serious and professional about their work. If we talk about Deepika’s work front, she will soon be seen in many exciting projects. Her upcoming films include ‘Raaka’ directed by Atlee with Allu Arjun. Apart from this, there is also heated discussion about her playing the character of Amrita in the film ‘Brahmastra Part 2’ with Ranbir Kapoor, although the official announcement from the makers is still awaited.
