Who wouldn't wish to see deadly combination of Shahrukh Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali materialize? After all, This is the combo which delivered a classic like 'Devadas'.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali decided long back that 'Padmavati' will be his next project after 'Bajirao Mastani'. He even finalized Deepika Padukone as the female lead. For the role of Male Lead (Husband of Padmavathi, Raja Rawal Ratan Singh), Shahrukh Khan was approached. The Bollywood Superstar, however, stunned Bhansali by quoting a remuneration of Rs 90 crore. It is learnt that King Khan has quoted a staggering pay package (Rs 40 crore above his current market value) as that's his style of rejecting a project.
Finally, Bhansali roped Shahid Kapoor to reprise the role offered to Shahrukh Khan for a pay package of Rs 10 crore. Ranveer Singh who is associated with Bhansali for projects like 'Ram Leela' and 'Bajirao Mastani' would play the other Male Lead in the crazy project.
