Amidst protest
against the release of Padmaavat, Rajput Karni Sena has claimed that director
Sanjay Leela Bhansali has invited them for a special screening of the period
drama.
Finally, there is
flicker of hope of a thaw between Bhansali and the Sena.
Though, founder
of Rajput Karni Sena Lokendra Singh Kalvi has tentatively rejected Bhansali’s
invitation describing it “drama”, he said that he might see the film on one
condition – and that is, his feedback should be accepted and incorporated in
the film.
“We had sent
names of nine historians but only three were invited (to watch the film). If
they call all these people and assure to make changes as advised, we can accept
the invitation,” Lokendra Singh Kalvi said.
Meanwhile, Rajput
Karni Sena has issued threat to cinema owners if they dare to show the film. “It
is for them to decide if they wan to celebrate Diwali or want to see Lanka in
flames,” said Kalvi.
