Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati starring Deepika
Padukone, Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor has been entangled in numerous
controversies regarding the movie’s content. Several Rajput groups have been
protesting against the movie as they believe that there is a dream sequence
between Queen Padmavati and Alauddin Khilji.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali had posted a video clarifying that no
such sequence has been shot. Even after that, protests haven’t stopped and numerous
leaders have threatened physical harm.
Twinkle Khanna who is known for her humorous takes on significant
issues, wrote on twitter, “And as far as #Padmavati is concerned I wish it is
the biggest hit ever as that would be the befitting rejoinder to all these
loony threats!”
Twinkle Khanna’s take is numerous Bollywood celebrities’
opinion too. They have come out to support the movie. Earlier Sonam Kapoor,
Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor had voiced their opinion in support of the movie.
Lately, Nana Patekar and Vishal Bharadwaj also voiced their support for the
film.
Padmavati’s lead actor Shahid Kapoor also spoke out recently
on the sidelines of IFFI and told, “It will be a precedent which I am not proud
of if the film finds it difficult to release. I believe that the film will
release. I believe that this process is difficult and like I said, I went
through a similar process with Udta Punjab. I eventually saw the film come out
and I eventually saw the film loved and celebrated.”
