Controversy | Monday | 20th November, 2017

Summary:

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s controversial project ‘Padmavati’ finds a new supporter in West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee

Supporting the filmmaker and cast, Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, Banerjee tweeted

"The #Padmavati controversy is not only unfortunate but also a calculated plan of a political party to destroy the freedom to express ourselves. We condemn this super emergency. All in the film industry must come together and protest in one voice."

Well, its hard to say whether our politicians should intervene in this matter and make it a political bawaal. For your information, the film has been postponed from its release date of December 1 to tentative date of Valentine's Day next year.
