The source revealed, "The sets are huge and the production cost for the film will be in the range of Rs 130-140 crore itself. Add another Rs 20 crore for print and publicity campaigns. Along with this, the leading cast will charge around Rs 30 crore in total. Out of that Rs 30 crore, Deepika will get Rs 12 crore, Ranveer and Shahid are charging around Rs 8 crore each. That makes the budget of Padmvati a staggering Rs 180-190 crore which is mammoth."

Sanjay’s movies are known to have opulent sets and grandeur costumes which is the biggest reasons why his movies are high on budget. But with if two production houses joining hands for the movie, SLB may have won half the battle.
Based on the bygone Rajputana era, ‘Padmavati’ reportedly features Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh. The story will revolve around Queen Padmavati whose ethereal beauty enchanted Muslim emperor Alauddin Khilji. Padmavati was married to Raja Ratan Singh and the war between the two emperors forms the skeleton of the script. Reportedly, the period movie will release in the Diwali weekend of 2017.
