Padmaavat

Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi, a prominent Rajput leader in Rajasthan, founded his own group in 2015 known as 'Rashtriya Rajput Karni Sena'

Bhansali, who calls it the 'most anxious release' of his life, is happy that despite hardships, the film managed to reach theatres

Swara said she was hopeful that Sanjay Leela Bhansali would offer 'some sort of a critique of Sati and Jauhar in your film'

Deepika, what was so special about the jauhar scene?

The movie released in over 4,000 screens across the country

Terming the school bus attack incident as "unfortunate", Sandhu told the media that the mob was controlled in time

The miscreants pelted the vehicle with stones apparently to hurt the children

Activists allegedly owing allegiance to Karni Sena were protesting against the release of the movie

Senior advocate Harish Salve, appearing for the movie producer Viacom 18, opposed urgent hearing on the pleas saying it was "unfortunate" the way things were happening despite the apex court order

The court said that a film may 'bomb at the box office' and people may not watch it but a state can't ban it

Before departing, the protesters also warned the staff of the cinema hall not to screen the movie

In Chittorgarh, members of the community expressed shock over the Supreme Court order

The decision to ban the movie was taken at a Haryana cabinet meeting

During the protests against Padmaavat, many members from the industry came forward to support the filmmaker

The number of tourists also witnessed a sudden rise from Dec 25 (Christmas) to the first week of January

The CBFC has suggested five modifications in 'Padmavati', which included changing the film's title to 'Padmavat', in December last year

The Karni Sena has also demanded the resignation of Prasoon Joshi, the chairman of CBFC

CBFC recommended five modifications in the flick to avoid more controversy, the change of the movie-title being one of them
