Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s periodic drama Padmaavat was surrounded by a number of controversies followed by a nationwide protest. Many fringe and right-wing groups such as Karni Sena carried violent protests against the film and not only this, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the film’s leading lady Deepika Padukone also received death threats by these fringe groups. When one of the members of the Karni Sena threatened to chop off Deepika Padukone’s nose, everyone was very surprised to see how the cast of the film and especially Deepika’s alleged boyfriend and Padmaavat actor Ranveer Singh was silent during the entire controversy.
