Satya Prakash's POV

Protest against violent & distorted protest against film” PADMAVATI”

The protest of the film “PADMAVATI” is bulldozing tower of art and aesthetic as tower of educational centres like JNU,HU,ALLAHABAD UNIVERSITY, BHU were attacked to make the students parrot but establishment failed. The films are being stalled with fierce for various periods of various governments. However, the protest is now designed furiously attacking. In Kota, the activists of Rajput Karni Sena had taken law and order in their hands and vandalized the “Aakash Theatre” because it had screened trailer of film “Padmavati” on the eve of “CHILDREN’S DAY”. This is an anti-national act of the group of certain castes of Rajsthan, vehemently supported by ruling establishment in states and centre in order to polarize votes of certain castes whose sentiment is hurt because of the film “Padmavati” that has exposed the queen PADMAVATI of Chittorgarh. 

The film Maker Sanjay Leela Bhansali has convinced the wounded community in many times that all the respects and reputations of legendary queen “Padmavati “ has been kept intact in the film and maintained the grandeur glory and prosperity of kingdom of Rajputana of Chittorgarh. Surprisingly, a new industry has been set up in lieu of industry for jobs in this country. That is called”Industry of Hurt Sentiment” that is actively volatile. The chemical reaction is so bombarding that it cannot be prevented in the test tube or the laboratory. It blows out beyond the wall to react to the body and respect of great film maker like “Sanjay Leela Bhansali” and his film “Padmavati”. Few days before, a Tamil film had hurt the people of ruling class of this country because it has questioned the “PERCENTAGE OF GST “. But see dear friends, the move of Government on GST is 180 degree because of mounting pressure of business community and people. Now it is now adjusted. So mistakes after mistakes, lies after lies, attacks after attacks ruling establishment inflict upon the people and opposition but it comes to normal by taking protest injection.Bhansali’s film has always been aesthetic and entertaining in a dignified ways. His previous film “ BAJIRAO MASTANI” had also received wrath protest from Maratha community for banning the film in 2015 but film was released and people appreciated and loved to see it. The Marathi people particularly entered the theatres from Mumbai to small town.
The Censor Board of Film Certification has given its approval. Prasoon Joshi is sensitive and creative person, positioned by ruling establishment. Then why do MLA, leaders and activists support the Karni Sena that had attacked and bashed up Sanjay Leela Bhansali in Jaipur and vandalised his set in Maharashtra ? This is the tacit agreement between these two organizations. Police is lukewarm towards such vandalized action of Sena. Above all, Supreme Court had snubbed that it would not intervene in sordid affair of banning the film “Padmavati”.
Ruling class of the country is shaking hand with casteist Karni Sena that has not so far watched the movie despite Bhansali’s repeated invitation. So this is hatched conspiracy against art and aesthetic world we have seen in case of Dalit-writer Kancha Ellaihiya who was attacked for release of his recent book. Few right wing Hindu outfits had killed writers and social workers like Dr.Dhabolkar, Comrade Pansare,Prof.Kulburgi and journalist Gauri Lankesh to shut the mouth against right wing injustice.
Bhansali’s each film is the moving showcase of historical facts aesthetically. His film fetches heavy investment like more than Rs.100 crores. How can he puts controversial elements in the film for invitinting wrath and hostility of community. The vandalism and brouhaha are negative for the investment in the film.He makes film to mint money. He cannot dare to distort the fact. He has consulted the Historians and the epic poetry of Mohmmad Jayasi who had penned this fictional love story in the poetry forms in “PADMAVAT” in Awadhi language and that’s why, it is still popular in the cauldron of human beings. As Tulsidas had jotted down the epic poetry “RAMCHARIT MANAS”in Awadhi”.
However, audiences will pour at theatres to see the movie “Padmavati” and the cine-lovers and writers-directors, actors and all cine-tech persons of Indian Cinema must stand up to support for the successful release of the film.
I wish Mr.Bhansali for grand success of his film “Padmavati”
