Manushi Chhillar made her Bollywood debut on June 3, 2022 opposite Akshay Kumar in `Samrat Prithviraj`. The actress has an interesting anecdote about how she bagged the role by performing a scene that Deepika Padukone did in `Bajirao Mastani`.

Manushi, who is playing the role of Princess Sanyogita in `Samrat Prithviraj`, says, “Every thing about my debut in the film about Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan’s life and daredevilry is special. I remember I had the most intense and challenging audition for the film because I was given a scene that Deepika Padukone performed incredibly in Bajirao Mastani! I knew I had to do a good job for me to get Prithviraj and thankfully Adi sir, my director Chandraprakash ji, Shanoo Sharma and the team at YRF were impressed by my effort.”
