  • Overview : A brilliant Master Piece by Sanjay Leela Bhansali , Historical story of Love and War of  Peshwa of the Maratha Kingdom .An epic saga of romance which got buried in the sands of time but left a life lesson for all that no matter what religion you belong , true love will always find its way

    Story Line : The story revolves around young peshwa of the Maratha Kingdom Bajirao (Ranveer Singh)who is a great warrior , He is married to Kashibai (Priyanka Chopra) , who is his strength , and due to this strength he wins as many as 40 battles against the Mughal Kings and wins all and  achives Maratha Strengh and power over the Mughals , in between all this he is approached by Mastani , daughter of the King of Bundelkhand to help her to save   her fathers kingdom from been attacked by the Mughals , Bajirao agrees to help her and goes to bundelkhand to protect it from the enemy , which he obviously wins , He not only wins the battle but also heart of Mastani , who falls deeply and intensely in love with him . From there begins their love story , Mastani leaves her kingdom and comes behind Bajirao to Pune ,  but she is not accepted by the  Peshwa's as she belongs to Muslim community and also as she is  not a legal wife , as Bajirao was already married with a child too, anyway but   Bajirao is determined to not leave her infact marry her . When Kashibai comes to know about this , obviously she is not happy about this but slowly realises that Bajirao is deeply  in love with Mastani  and therefore she readily accepts the fact , but their relationship is not accepted by the peshwa family headed by Radha Bai (Tanvi Bai)  infact she humiliates Mastani many times , Bajirao is determined and  gives Mastani a whole wing in Shaniwarwada , She stays there and  even conceives child of Bajirao , but  the child is not accepted by the Mother of Bajirao  and the Peshwa's which hurts Bajirao a lot , so much so  that he is ready to step down from the crown of the Peshwa , but is forced to go on the battle as the Maratha Kingdom was suddenly attacked by the Mughals , while he goes to the battlefield , Mastani and her son are taken in custody by Radha Bhai , what happens next is for the audience to watch , what will happen to the love story of Bajirao and Mastani and of Kashibai .

    Performances : Brilliant Performance by Ranveer Singh as Bajirao , his best performance of  his career , The battle scenes are perfectly played by him , his immense training of horse riding , swinging sword training has paid off , infact he has managed to achieve the Maratha accent too. . Deepika as Mastani steals your heart away with good battle scenes and stunts done by her , even  amidst battle and blood she looks fabulous , Priyanka as Kashibai is mind blowing , her performance and dialogues are to die for , her small but powerful role will leave you in awe . Tanvi as Bajirao's mother is excellent , everyone else has performed well as per their role , that's the work of Sanjay Leela Bhansali who manages to remove best from the artist.

    The Cinematography is brilliant , the grandeur  and larger than life sets , the costumes are all royal , the replica of the Shaniwar wada leaves you mesmerised . The movie is a master piece of Art , watch it only on big screen to enjoy it .

    The Music is good especially the famous Pinga Song .The costume are so good , they are designed to perfection. The movie takes us through the royal journey of the Maratha Kingdom , Also it depicts the untold story of intense love between Bajirao And Mastani , which was somewhere unheard amongst other classic love story of Heer Ranjha , Romeo Juliet etc , this is a historical love story not to be missed ,

    Verdict : Its a must watch , that too on the big screen only ,

    Rating : 3.5*/5*
