Padmavat faces a BAN in Rajasthan!
Well, frankly, we didn’t have any hopes for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s magnum opus, Padmavat (which was formerly known as Padmavati) to release anytime this quarter, let alone this month. But, we were more than happy to hear that Padmavat will FINALLY see the light of day on the 25th of THIS MONTH alongside Akshay Kumar’s Pad Man. Well, given that Padmavat’s release is a good news all by itself but the fact that it’s clashing with a yet another meaningful film is what has left us with mixed feelings.
But, although the film will finally hit the silver screens nationwide, all but one state, Rajasthan, is still being a little-spoilt sport about it!
Yes, the film, which is based on a Rajasthan-based legend, is facing a ban on kind of its very own home turf.
Well, looks like Karni Sena will keep up with the business of baselessly defaming, burning properties and, in this case, even giving death threats. Some things just don’t change, do they?
What will this mean for the overall collections of the 160-crore mega project? We shall let time decide!
Stick to this space for the latest in Bollywood!
