Padmaavat was a special film for Deepika Padukone and she wants to treasure her Jauhar dress as souveneir as Deepika has requested the director Sanjay L Bhansali to gift her the dress.

Deepika garnered immense love and appreciation from fans and critics alike for her performance in the film.

The film is also special for the actor for many reasons. ‘Padmaavat’ became the first woman-centric Rs 300-crore film in India, her third film with Bhansali and for eventually witnessing a huge release after the controversy surrounding the film took a vicious turn of events prior to the release.

Deepika was also applauded by fans and critics for the climax scene of the film, which many hail as the most powerful scene ever.

“‘Padmaavat’, in its entirety, has been a journey that will stay with me forever. The climax sequence, especially, has been the most intense, challenging and memorable scene I have ever done. And to commemorate those moments, I’ve requested Sanjay sir if I could keep the outfit that I wore,” Deepika said.

Padmaavat, also starring Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor, is the highest grossing film of 2018 and now ranks among the highest grossing Hindi films ever.

Padmaavat was released worldwide in 2D, 3D and IMAX 3D on January 25.
