"I saw Padmaavat in 3D last night. I am so overwhelmed with the film at this point that words fail me. I feel immensely blessed.

I am so proud of my team. TEAM PADMAAVAT for the win! High tens and monster hugs to everyone!

I am relieved and happy with the reactions to my performance. Thank you all for your kind and generous praise. Sanjay Sir has given me a gift of a character that I will forever be indebted to him for in my life, more than I already am. You have shaped me into an artist that I am, Sir. I love you.

For me, the sheer toil of our film's team has translated (into) magic on the big screen. And today, on the eve of the release of our beloved film, I wish you all a Happy Republic Day in advance and invite you all to the cinema halls. I am proud to be a part of a film that our whole country can be proud of. Jai Hind."
