Ranveer Singh’s Ghostly Encounter

On the occasion of the film’s anniversary, let’s revisit a spine-chilling incident shared by Ranveer Singh during the shoot of Bajirao Mastani. In an old interview with Deccan Chronicle, the actor disclosed an extraordinary experience that left him shaken.

The Peculiar Sight

Singh claimed to have encountered the spirit of Peshwa Bajirao, the character he was portraying, on the film set. A week before this eerie incident, Singh had a passing thought about connecting with the warrior’s spirit. This notion resurfaced when he witnessed a peculiar sight on set—a black wall covered in white dust that formed the shape of Bajirao, complete with turban, eyes, nose, mustache, and arms.

Ranveer’s Reaction

Intrigued by the uncanny resemblance, Singh admitted to being completely freaked out. Despite not believing in ghosts prior to this incident, he described it as a “trippy experience” and one of the most challenging days of shooting. His gut feeling alerted him to the spirit’s presence, turning a routine day on set into a supernatural encounter.

Bajirao Mastani’s Legacy

Released in 2015, Bajirao Mastani explores the love triangle between Peshwa Bajirao, his first wife Kashibai (played by Priyanka Chopra), and his second wife Mastani (played by Deepika Padukone). The film not only achieved commercial success but also garnered praise for its gripping storyline and memorable soundtracks.

As we celebrate the eighth anniversary of Bajirao Mastani, Ranveer Singh’s ghostly encounter adds an intriguing layer to the film’s legacy. The supernatural experience on set remains etched in the actor’s memory, making it a memorable chapter in the making of this cinematic gem.
