If he really wants to titillate and tease the crowds, he should have instead shown love scenes between Khilji and his real lover Malik Kafur, whom Khilji repeatedly raped since he was a little boy!

Kalyani, people like our intellectual brigade , the political class and the celebrities who consider themselves a creamy class , go only for the soft target like Hindus. After being subjugated time and again , when tney revolt and hit back they become Hindu terrorists

True, pseudo secular and intellectuals can't see any religion for those people who kill many innocent people by bomb blast, kill animals in name or religion, but can see Hindu terrorist who are going to stop something wrong to being happened. Also our government is coward, can't bring strict rules against these people who are trying distort our historical facts. If something like this has happened in America or China, these people are behind bars right after doing such acts.

True. The Government has to take strict action those who distort the Historical facts. Our History is a precious and valuable. It should be kept in tact

True History neither to be distorted nor destroyed. See any One in any Country must be proud of their History. It Help in knowing your roots,Culture and heritage.
I wonder who would be the judge who determines which version is true and which one is fake ? Sanjay Leela Bhansali ?
I am reminded of the novel and fim Da Vinci Cde which created quite a furore all over Europe , where Catholism is the predominant religion because of the subject matter where Jesus is supposed to have lived on after resurrection, married Mary Magdalene and had children..Dan Brown before writing the novel had done enough research and according to many historians who had made a thorough study of bible and Jesus's life , there were plenty of evidence to prove that Jesus did marry and have a family. But inspite of it believers were angry because for them faith had to be kept intact and so in the end Da vinci and the film director Ron Howard had to say that it was nothing but fiction ...

Exactly! While I agree with @ Vijay that one shd raise doubts and not stop from doing so, how does one arrive at truth and who does one believe? Also in a nation where double standards are practiced , where targeting the majority Community and protecting the minority community has become a norm even when there is enough evidence , no wonder that people stand firm on their own convictions drived from whatever knowledge is available..

True...but those intellectuals should read this before they deplore their own people even further

I came across this post which is an excerpt from Swmi Vivekanand, proves that Rani Padmini's tale is the truth and not fiction and it is enough for me to believe in it versus the crap fed to us daily by intellectuals in India!
Swami Vivekananda on Rani Padmini
--------------------------------------------------
When the Mohammedan empire was being established in northern India, the Queen of Chitore [Râni Padmini] was famed for her beauty. And the report of her beauty reached the sultan, and he wrote a letter for the queen to be sent to his harem. The result was a terrible war between the King of Chitore and the sultan. The Mohammedans invaded Chitore. And when the Rajputs found they could not defend themselves any more, the men all took sword in hand and killed and were killed, and the women perished in the flames.
After the men had all perished, the conqueror entered the city. There in the street was rising a horrible flame. He saw circles of women going around it, led by the queen herself. When he approached near and asked the queen to refrain from jumping into the flames, she said, "This is how the Rajput woman treats you", and threw herself into the fire.
It is said that 74,500 women perished in the flames that day to save their honour from the hands of the Mohammedans. Even today when we write a letter, after sealing it we write "74½" upon it, meaning that if one dares to open this letter, that sin of killing 74,500 women will be upon his head.
Distorting history is not acceptable. True. But i dont think i can agree with what the karni sena did. There has been no proof of any romantic or dream scene between DP and RS. There have been no rushes or screening of the film, then how did these ppl decide of this dream scene?? Even before the production started it was made very clear, to the disappointment of DP fans, that there was no mushy scenes with her real life boyfriend.
Some facts.
Production on the film began in July 2016. That same month, playback singer Shreya Ghoshal tweeted about singing a song composed by Bhansali for the film.[2] Many media outlets speculated that Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, who played the leads in Bhansali's Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela (2013) and Bajirao Mastani (2015), were finalized to play Alauddin Khilji and Rani Padmini in the film with a dream sequence planned between the two stars. Multiple actors were rumored to be attached to the part of Rani Padmini's husband Rana Rawal Ratan Singh, including Vicky Kaushal and Fawad Khan. Later it was speculated that Shahid Kapoor was approached for the role. [3][4][5]
In October 2016, it was announced that Bhansali would team up with Viacom 18 Motion Pictures to produce the film with Kapoor, Singh and Padukone playing the lead roles.[6]
The story of Pdmavati well known to most is simply that Khilji had very romantic feeling for Rani Padmmavati. He had seen her image in a mirror. He could never see her in person. There appears nothing wrong in depicting the historic facts as known to all. The movie does not include any scene of interaction between Khilji amd Padmavati as such. What is depicted is simply dream or fantasy of Khiljee. I don't see any reason for the kind of violent reaction afgainst Bhansali.
Totally agree. What they should have done is probably ask for a special screening for the karni sena or the rajput sena or who ever is involved before the movie actually hits the theater to make sure there is no objectionable content. That would have been a better way of handling the situation. This violence is uncalled for.

I agree. It would have been better if the concerned Karni Sena or the Rajput Sena made a Movie. This certainly would have cleared all the suspicions and doubts especially things pertaing to objectionable matter

I did not talk about the Karni Sena making the movie. I just meant they could have asked for seeing the movie after its completion but before it is opened for public screening.

Right. I just misread your response. Thank you for correcting .
No doubt that Karni Sena chief and the supporters went too far inspite of the fact that they were provoked by Sanjay Leela Bhansali by firing a rifle in the air ..However, hopefully now onwards India culture and it's history would be given the same respect that other religions are accorded..
