For months, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has made Ranveer Singh keep his look for the film literally under his hat - and here's his first look.

'Bajirao Mastani' is based on the love story between 18th century Maratha warrior Peshwa Bajirao I (Ranveer Singh) and his second wife Mastani (Deepika Padukone). Priyanka plays Kashibai, the first wife of Peshwa Bajirao.

Priyanka Chopra will be seen playing Ranveer’s first wife Kashibai and looks stunning too.

'Bajirao Mastani', which reunites Bhansali with his 'Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela' actors Ranveer and Deepika, will clash with Bollywood's iconic onscreen couple Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol-starrer 'Dilwale' at the box office on December 17 in the UAE.

After revealing a glimpse of the film, fans are awaiting the teaser which will be out on Thursday. The film's theatrical trailer releases alongside Salman Khan's 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' on Thursday.

Deepika Padukone plays Ranveer Singh's second wife Mastani, described as a brilliant warrior who could swing the sword with as much elan as she could hit an adversary with an arrow. Padukone is seen in a helmet and metal metal.
