Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone will soon be going on a multi-city tour to promote their upcoming release, Bajirao Mastani.
However, their spunky co-star Priyanka Chopra won't be joining them for the promotions, says a source from the film's team. "Priyanka is in the US. She returns on December 8. Until then it's 'Bajirao' Ranveer Singh and 'Mastani' Deepika all the way."
The two will be on a multi-city tour from next week. Priyanka may occasionally join them on Skype.
Speaking of which, Priyanka's over-the-top performance at the trailer launch hasn't gone unnoticed by the Bajirao Mastani team.
Says a source. "PeeCee is PeeCee. Always larger than life. Always dramatic. At the trailer launch, she said on Skype that she broke down and cried on the third day of shooting with Bhansali Sir as she was unable to cope with the demands of the scenes. This is completely cooked up. It's PeeCee's drama at its most dramatic. She is too confident to cave in under any circumstance. From day one, she understood what the role demanded and gave exactly what was wanted."
Apparently, Priyanka's strategy is to downplay her achievement in Bajirao Mastani to such an extent that the audiences expect nothing from her. She wants to surprise them with her performance.
Says the source, "She wants to be the band mutthi (closed fist) of Bajirao Mastani. Let the audiences flock to see Bajirao and Mastani. But they'll come back filled with good thoughts for Priyanka's Kashibai as well."
