New Delhi, Nov 16: The controversy and protests surrounding Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film Padmavati is intensifying with each passing day. Rajput organisation Karni Sena, which is spearheading the protests against the film, has now threatened Deepika Padukone to chop-off her nose if the film is released.
“Rajputs never raise a hand on women but if need be, we will do to Deepika what Lakshman did to Shurpanakha,” Mahipal Singh Makrana of Rajput Karni Sena said. Makrana’s threat came just hours after Lokendra Singh Kalvi, a senior leader of the Rajput group, called for nation-wide strike on December 1, the date Padmavati is scheduled to be released.
