Padmavati had been banned in Rajasthan in November last year<\/a>, a few days prior to its release date. Chief minister\u00a0 Raje had said that the government would not allow the movie to be released in Rajasthan until necessary alterations were made. Padmavat – earlier “Padmavati” – had been slated for a December 1 release.<\/p>\nThe producers had to postpone the movie\u2019s release bowing to the protests against the alleged objectionable portrayal of Queen Padmavati.<\/p>\n
The movie is now being released on January 25 after the producers agreed to make amendments suggested by the Censor Board.<\/p>\n
A panel of historians and royal family members had been shown the movie.<\/p>\n
Arvind Singh, a former royal family member objected to the movie\u2019s release saying that there were some controversial facts. \u201cThis film can upset both Rajput and Muslim communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Rajput community has warned the BJP-led Rajasthan government of dire consequences in the upcoming assembly elections if the movie was allowed to be released.<\/p>\n
The community was already at loggerhead with the government over the issue of the police encounter of gangster Anandpal Singh.<\/p>\n
The CBI has registered three FIRs including the one pertaining to the protests after encounter. In this FIR, the CBI will investigate the violence that was triggered during the protests.<\/p>\n
Rajput Sabha leader Girraj Singh Lotwada said in a press conference on Monday that the government was breaking its promise that only two of the three FIRs would be investigated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe government will face the consequences in the elections,\u201d said Lotwada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
