The much-awaited trailer of Padmavati movie was finally launched on Monday! Ahead of the launch, the makers of Padmavati had announced that the trailer will be released at 13:03 PM. Many people were wondering why such timing – 13:03 PM? So here is the logic behind it. Actually, there is history behind it, backed by solid data. According to famous Indian movie industry tracker Ramesh Bala, makers chose 13.03 as the trailer launch time because it was 1303 AD when Raja Ratan Singh and Alauddin Khilji engaged in battle. Shahid Kapoor is playing Raja Ratan Singh while Ranveer Singh will be seen as Alauddin Khilji in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed movie. Deepika Padukone is playing Rani Padmini in this Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much-awaited magnum opus. Ramesh Bala tweeted, ” @deepikapadukone , @shahidkapoor and @RanveerOfficial ‘s #PadmavatiTrailer releases @ 13:03 bcos it was in 1303 AD King & Khilji faced off.”

Ramesh Bala’s tweet:-

Going by what the trailer shows, the movie looks grand in sets. In terms of cinematography, it may set some new standards.
