Ranveer Singh: The first and the most important reason to watch the movie is Ranveer Singh. The actor completely owns the movie playing the evil character of Allauddin Khilji on screen. You would love to hate him onscreen, and the way he shows his obsession with queen Padmaavati will leave you spellbound.

Ensemble star-cast: The movie marks Bhansali's third collaboration with actors- Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone after 'Raamleela' and 'Bajirao Mastani' and once again the trio gave us a visual extravaganza. Both Ranveer & Deepika look brilliant in the movie as Khilji and Rani Padmaavati, plus this time we have Shahid Kapoor as the bonus, the actor looks every inch of a proud Rajput king. The supporting cast too is mind-blowing especially Jim Sarabh who plays Khilji's slave in the movie.

Visual effects: The VFX in the movie is just terrific and if you want to get the real feel of the brilliant cinematography go watch the film in 3 D

Gripping plot: Despite the story being predictable and you know what is going to happen next, the movie keeps you glued to the seats till the end and you don't feel like taking even a loo break.
