For the outing, the Lukka Chuppi actor opted for a white salwar kameez, while Arjun donned a blue shirt and denim.
Panipat is based on the third battle of Panipat fought between the Maratha empire led by Sadashiv Rao Bhau and invading forces of Ahmad Shah Abdali, the King of Afghanistan. The battle took place on January 14, 1761, at Panipat, and is considered to be one of the most eventful battles fought in the 18th century.
Kriti will be playing the role of Parvati bai in the period drama. In June, when she completed the shooting of the film, she penned an emotional note on social media and thanked Ashutosh and Arjun for being a part of the project.
Expressing her gratitude to the director for giving her the opportunity to be a part of the film, she wrote, "Thank you so much Ashu sir for giving me this opportunity, for always hearing me out & finding Parvati bai with me! You create magic in the calmest manner ever! And I'm honoured to be a part of this magic! @AshGowariker. That's literally us..always wondering!"
Praising Arjun for being a lovely co-star, she wrote further, "Thank you, Arjun Kapoor, for being such a lovely and entertaining costar!! With no ice to break, I'm glad we went on this journey together and I found an amazing friend in you!"
