In the video, the filmmaker is seen directing the actors and the production unit.

Deepika says in the video: "I never thought I will ever be a Sanjay Leela Bhansali actress and now I have worked with him in not one but three film. "

Ranveer, while addressing the production team says: "You will always be able to proudly say that you were part of Padmaavat's making."
