The whole nation is talking about Padmavati. Some against it, some for it and some trying to grasp the whole matter. Until now, the protest against the release of the film involved vandalism, burning effigies and bounties on the cast’s heads. But no lives were lost. Until now!
In a shocking case that has come to light, a body was found hanging at Rajasthan’s Nahargarh Fort, where some scenes of Padmavati were shot.

“Padmavati, hum sirf putle nahi latkate (Padmavati, we hang not just effigies).”
The words “Padmavati ka virodh (Protest against Padmavati)” were also found next to the body.
The image of the man hanging from the parapet has shaken everyone.

Jaipur police is investigating the case and it’s still not clear if it was a murder or a suicide.
According to an India Today report, the body is of a 23-year-old youth and, a source told them,
“It doesn’t look like he was alone. It would take more than one person to tie the rope around the fort parapet and the embrasure.”
More information on it is awaited.
The film Padmavati, which is based on Malik Mohammed Jayasi’s 16th Century epic poem Padmavat, has triggered rage across the country and Shri Rajput Karni Sena is vigorously protesting the film’s release. It has been banned in Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh so far. The makers have voluntarily postponed the release date of the film from December 1.
