BREAKING NEWS: `Padmavat’ Release date announced, follows ban to film
Even after Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) cleared Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film, Padmavati, with few changes, the storm surrounding it refuses to die down. Padmavati is now renamed Padmavat and is all set to hit the screens on January 25 this year, and the box office readies for a massive clash.
Gulabchand Katariya, the home minister of Rajasthan, today said that the film Padmavati (now Padmavat) will not be allowed to release in the state.
The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP), which is in power in Rajasthan, does not want to be seen as going against the prevailing sentiment, i.e., against the release of the film. Several crucial by-elections, including that of Ajmer and Alwar Lok Sabha constituencies, are to be held shortly in Rajasthan.
The president of the Shree Rajput Sabha too echoed Parnami. As of now, Padmavati has been renamed Padmavat, after Muhammad Malik Jayasi’s 16th Century epic poem on which the film is supposedly based. The CBFC recommended several modifications to the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film, before passing it with a U/A certificate.
