Bombay Times reports that historians have claimed Singh’s character Alauddin Khilji being bisexual in nature. Rumours are rife that Bhansali will explore Alauddin’s fascination and attraction to his his slave-general Malik Kafur. Earlier Singh has said that he had no objections playing such roles if the script demands it but it needs to be special to him.
