Gaurav Devasi’s 'Gora Badal' Set to Rival Bollywood’s Padmavat

A new cinematic tribute to Rajput valor is on the horizon as Rajasthan-born actor Gaurav Devasi takes center stage in the historical film Gora Badal. Set to echo the grandeur of Bollywood's Padmavat, the film is a passionate retelling of the legendary Rajput bravery that once defined an era.

In Gora Badal, Devasi plays a uniquely intense role as Aladdin, showcasing his range in a powerful performance. One gripping sequence features Khilji (played by Paresh Bhatt) hunting in the forest, only to be struck down by Aladdin’s arrow in a dramatic ambush. This act of courage leads to a series of events that portray the Rajput strategy, sacrifice, and indomitable spirit.

The story intensifies as Khilji deceitfully captures Ratan Singh under the guise of friendship, demanding that Queen Padmavati surrender herself in exchange for his release. However, the queen devises a bold plan with Rajput warriors Gora and Badal, sending palanquins seemingly carrying royal women to the enemy—only to reveal the disguised warrior Gora instead.

Gora rescues Ratan Singh and unleashes a surprise assault on Khilji’s soldiers, igniting chaos. What follows is a heroic escape and a ferocious battle where Gora and Badal confront the enemy with unmatched intensity, ultimately sacrificing their lives in battle as true warriors.

Gaurav Devasi: From Humble Beginnings to Heroic Lead

The heart of this cinematic venture is Gaurav Devasi, a self-made artist from Rajasthan who has worked in eight regional films. Despite coming from a modest background, Devasi has made a significant mark through his passion and talent. Though his character leans toward the antagonist, Devasi’s portrayal brings depth, distinction, and resonance to the role.

His performance in Gora Badal promises to be both gripping and transformative—one that challenges mainstream portrayals while shedding light on Rajput pride and identity.

Shot on location at the majestic Chittorgarh Fort in Bassi, the film is being touted as a more authentic and culturally rooted alternative to Padmavat. Backed by strong Rajput community support, the film is expected to stir audiences across the state and beyond.

Directed by Dinesh Rajpurohit and produced by Khushboo Singh, Gora Badal is generating significant buzz. The project also enjoys the active endorsement of the Karni Sena, lending both historical and cultural credibility.

This film stands as a landmark in regional cinema, combining heritage with storytelling to honor the legacy of the Rajput warriors—and leading this cinematic charge is none other than Gaurav Devasi, a name soon to be etched in the annals of historical film drama.
