The show is not only expected to be made with a huge! budget but it is also expected to feature a bunch of big faces/celebrities as it is said to be a social drama set based on the timeline of 1940s and revolves around the courtesan culture. In an earlier interview with Netflix, Bhansali had called “the show as a tribute to films based on courtesans like Pakeezah, Mughal–e–Azam“.
SLB words on his debut:
He also mentioned that; “They told beautiful women stories. They understood that she is the creator of man, therefore she needs to be given a place in literature, cinema and art. They always told stories of women, they were not necessarily telling stories of men. So if there is a Bajirao, there is also Mastani for me. If there was no Padmavati, who would hold the fort, fight and go into fire, I wouldn’t have made that film,”
