Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra, who is seen in the character of Kashibai in Sajay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus 'Bajirao Mastani,' recently revealed that she always had faith in this flick and is amused with the response she is getting for it.
The 33-year-old actress said, "Like all other films I do, I had believe in this film as well, but the love I have got for my character in the flick was unexpected. I am really happy that people are liking Kashibai's character so much."
Further, the 'Mary Kom' star also revealed that she was the first one to be casted for the flick.
She said, "Sanjay Leela Bhasali casted Khashibai first, when I was doing 'Mary Kom' he came to me and said when I will cast Kashibai then only I will decide who will play Bajirao and Mastani.
