New controversies embroil Padmaavat, post SC's ban-lifting
The makers of Padmaavat heaved a sigh of relief when the Supreme Court allowed a nation-wide release, earlier today. But now the Karni Sena threatens dire consequences if the film is released in any state, despite SC's order. They have threatened that all those cinema halls, which will screen the movie, will be set ablaze. Here are the details.
Here's what the Karni Sena Chief said
Standing strong on their stance of banning the film, the Karni Sena Chief said, "This is our last warning. We won't allow anyone to play with the dignity of Queen Padmavati, whom we hold with the highest regard. All those cinema halls, which will screen the movie, will be set ablaze." With this, the problem seems to have intensified even further.
And they have done as threatened
Now, even the Kshatriya women have joined the force
After Karni Sena's repeated warnings to set the theatres on fire, now the Kshatriya women have joined the force against the release. They have threatened mass-immolation or 'Jauhar' if the film is released. With these problems arising, Padmaavat may again fall into the ashes from where it has risen.
