PADMAVATI shooting stalled
The shooting of Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s historical drama `Padmavati` was stalled by activists of a Rajput group who created ruckus and even tried to vandalise the set at Jaigarh Fort in Rajasthan, alleging that "wrong facts" were being depicted in the movie. While the shooting of the film, starring Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, was underway, the activists of Karni Sena assembled at the Jaigarh Fort and held a demonstration. Some of them also tried to vandalise the set. In the movie, Deepika is playing `Padmavati` and Ranveer `Alaudin Khilji`. It is alleged that Padmavati has been shown as beloved of Khilji, an historical wrong. The filmmakers have assured that they will not shoot and will pack up.
