The Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed historical-drama opened to glowing reviews last Friday, with many praising Ranveer's performance as his career's best. When asked how is he feeling, Ranveer mimicked actor Anil Kapoor and said, "I am feeling on top of the world."
He added, "The response has been phenomenal and we did work really hard for it. I don't know how to react... I went to a cinema hall to watch the audience's reaction and I was happy. This is what we work for..."
"Bajirao-Mastani" released on the same date as that of superstar Shah Rukh Khan's "Dilwale" but the "Ram Leela" actor said both films will enjoy a good run at the box office.
"I think three-week open run should be good for both films. There is time and space for both the films. I will watch "Dilwale" as soon as I get time.
"The numbers are rising steadily and at an amazing rate (for Bajirao Mastani). People are calling me and praising and saying, more than a film, it's an experience."
Recently, Ranveer shared a video where his 'Bajirao Mastani' co-star Deepika Padukone was seen shaving his moustache.
"I didn't have the heart to take it out myself. So I asked her (Deepika) to do it. It'll take me some time to get used to it (the new look)."
