Gowariker also cleared the air on rumours around the movie. "Kiran Deohans was never considered for the cinematography of Panipat. My director of photography is C.K. Muraleedharan". Acclaimed designer Neeta Lulla will lend her creativity and expertise to the detailed costumes for Ashutosh Gowariker's period drama Panipat. In the past, the two creative minds collaborated for Jodhaa Akbar and Mohenjo Daro. Lulla had even won the National Film Award for Best Costume Design for the former movie.
Art director Nitin Desai is already working closely with Gowariker for the film and is recreating the Shaniwar Wada set for the film at N.D. Studios. Panipat will release on December 6 next year.
