While all the characters of the film are getting love from all quarters, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali is all praises for Shahid Kapoor.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who worked with Shahid Kapoor for the first time in Padmaavat, called him a talented and effortless actor. “Shahid was a new energy on set because I hadn’t worked with him before. It was interesting to see how a new actor works. He is a great-looking kid. He is extremely talented and so effortless. He is constantly wanting to become better. He would say, ‘I’m unhappy with that shot. Can I do this better?’ And I would tell him, ‘Can you stop pushing yourself.'”

SLB added, “It was great working with him. He gave Maharawal Ratan Singh such dignity and silence. Deepika and Shahid look so good together. I wish they do more films with each other.”
