Rani Padmavati s battle sequence would cost Rs. 12 crores

The climactic battle sequence of Sanjay Leela Bhansali s Rani Padmavati alone will cost Rs. 12 crores. It is expected to be the most spectacular battle ever fought on screen.

A reliable source reveals, Unlike the prolonged and FX-saturated battle scene in Bahubali, there will be no CGs in Bhansali s battle finale. Limbs and heads severed, blood splattered all these are strict no-no. It will all be done authentically. The entire battle scenario is being sketched blow by blow, on paper. The execution of the sequence would require a minimum of 15 days of the stars dates.

The Rani Padmavati producers Viacom 18 are taking no chances with the project s production costs. No effort will be spared to make Rani Padmavati the most lavish costume drama to be shot in India, says a source from Viacom 18.
