Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor, stars of "
Padmaavat", hosted a special screening of their newly-released film at Yash Raj Studio in Mumbai on Thursday evening. Deepika and Ranveer arrived separately (unlike last time,
when they were photographed hand-in-hand. But both of them smiled for the cameras). Shahid made a couple entry with wife Mira Rajput. Rekha, in a stunning golden
sari, gold jewellery and brown shades, made the spotlight follow her. She was pictured doing
namastey to the paparazzi gathered outside the studio. Sridevi was casually dressed and arrived with fashion designer Manish Malhotra. Deepika appeared to be wearing a green-coloured outfit and was seated in her car while Ranveer waved at the photographers. Shahid and Mira also struck a pose from their car.
Please welcome the "
