he Padmaavat controversy is showing no signs of calming down. Rajput Karni Sena is trying all violent methods of stopping the release.
Yesterday, we showed you a video in which members of Karni Sena burnt a ticket counter in a mall in Faridabad.
Constant threats are being issued to Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Leela Bhansali; the director has been banned in Rajasthan. Even women are giving “Jauhar” threats if the release is not stopped.

If that’s not all, Karni Sena has gone 1 step ahead. Now, the leader of Karni Sena Lokendra Singh has called Bharat Bandh on 25th of January i.e. on the release day. Moreover, Karni Sena says that if the film releases, there will be violence.
It is said that the Karni Sena Chief will visit Mumbai for seeing if Bandh is being followed or not. They say that they will burn down theaters if the movie is screened.
Here’s how people reacted;
Plan it soon!
Please confirm “Bharat Bandh" ASAP so that long weekend can be better planned. 😄😄 https://t.co/ZfWkuueoVN

Must be opposed!
@Karni Sena call for Bharat Bandh on 25th January is illegal and uncalled for. It must be opposed. # Padmavat. #President, Samajwadi Party, Odisha,.

Do you think this Bandh will be followed? Do you think there will be violence?
