The Supreme Court has also directed the states to not stand in the way of the release of Padmaavat. Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh government recently approached the Supreme Court for allowing them to ban the movie.
Although, many cinema hall owners will not screen the movie due to fear of protestors.
The BJP wrote to the Election Commission requesting to postpone the release of the film owing to Gujarat elections.
Protests escalate and President of Karni Sena Mahakaal Makrana threatens to assault Deepika Padukone by saying that he will "chop her nose" if the movie is released.
CBFC clears the movie after suggesting five major changes including changing the name 'Padmavati' to 'Padmaavat' and putting in a disclaimer saying saying that the movie doesn't claim any historical accuracy.
Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Haryana governmens ban the release of the movie Padmaavat in their states. Meanwhile, Sanjay Leel Bhansali invites Karni Sena for a screening of Padmaavat. Karni Sena agrees to attend the screening.
January 23, 2018, the Supreme Court gave a nod for the screening of Padmaavat across the country saying that the order won't be modified and people can choose not to watch the movie if they don't like it.
