TV actress and beauty Ankita Lokhande is soon to make it big in the industry, after her break up with long time boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput she is all set to make her career big again. According to a leading media house, Ankita is being considered for a role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's upcoming film on 'Rani Padmavati'. Seems like, she recently met director Sanjay Leela Bhansali at his Mumbai office and they had some serious talk.
If this movie clicks, it would be Ankita's big screen debut. There were reports that dimpled beauty Deepika Padukone was the first choice but she recently refused. We got this news straight from the horse is mouth, when Deepika told the press at the IIFA Awards, "Why don't you ask Sanjay sir? He is here. He will be able to tell you. I think IIFA was a good platform to announce it. But then I don't know. I can't say anything at the moment. It is up to Sanjay to confirm".

This movie Padmavati' is based on Chittor's queen who performed Jauhar to evade capture by Alauddin Khilji. This film would have made the third project of Bhansali with Deepika.
