Sanjay Leela Bhansali beaten for distorting history!

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]

Some more facts:

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 .

If senas are going to give clearances then why have elected governments. No way such practices should be entertained.

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..

Now this issue is closed. Sanjay agreed not to show any thing which is against history.

Yes I came to know from the News Channels that Sanjay agreed to not to show anything that is against history. He learned this lesson very late. Any how, good that the issue is closed once and for all.

The issue is closed because it was made into a big issue ..Or else all the fans of Deepika and Ranveer would have witnessed Sanjay Leela Bhansali s artistic imagination and freedom going wild in the dream sequencehe he had planned and later conveniently denied ...However all's well that ends well !!!!

So I guess it is alright to lock the thread now. Unless someone wishes to add any thing further! Thank you!
