Here's why Sanjay Leela Bhansali opts for Ranveer-Deepika repeatedly

Deepika Padukone feels that she, Ranveer Singh and Sanjay Leela Bhansali share the same passion for films, hence the filmmaker rope them in whenever he thinks of a movie.

"I think some way we are all on the same page. We are all together in it for all the right reasons. We are in it because we are passionate; we are in it because we want to tell stories in most magnificent way possible. I have to say that we feel really fortunate that every time he thinks of movies, the thinks of us," said the 30-year-old actress, during an interaction with the media at post IIFA 2016 press meet.

"We feel extremely fortunate that he has given us that experience time and again, those opportunities time and again. Most importantly he has given us these iconic characters that people will remember us for ever and ever," she added, while speaking about characters like Ram and Leela, Peshwa Bajirao and Mastani.

Further speaking about Bhansali, the 'Piku' actress said, "He is such an incredible person and incredibly talented that you are willing to sacrifice so many things in your life to make the film possible, that experience possible."

This came when the Bajirao Mastani actors were asked about their rumoured upcoming flick with the 'Devdas' director on tyrant Alauddin Khilji's obsession for Queen of Chittor Padmavati.

Although, none of the actors or the filmmaker spilled out any information, the latter hinted during his interaction with the media at IIFA 2016, that he will start working on his next project very soon.

It reports are to be believed, 'Padmavati' will go on floor this September.
