Padmini did not exist. I thought everyone knew that.

so u mean to say, all the rajasthani people came to know about Rani Padmini after reading Malik mohammed jayasi poem which was circulated at that time through print and twitter ? so who built those palace and jouhar khund ? why there is ghunghat pratha ?


I am saying that there is absolutely no proof of Padmini's existence before Jayasi, end of story. It must really burn you, all this anger and outrage over a fictional character, who has about as much existence as Harry Potter. 😆

You've studied history too haven't you? I gathered it by your mentioning Khusro. Khusro's book is actually a great source about Khilji's invasion down south and into the Deccan.

Btw, I just went through Satish Chandra who dismissed Padmini's existence quite logically but its pointless to relate it here. People will believe what they want to be it the existence of Harry Potter or Padmini.

People like you are the reason why people like these Senas (whatever their name is ) exist.
The one protesting are serious offenders and rapist amongst them Officially (Google it)
Irony and stupidity mixed into one.
The stupidity flaunted so blatantly is embarrassing. Regressive like Deepika said.

My eyes have already got cheer-haraned because I watched that Ghoomar Bhoomar song on my big screen. Those eyebrows !!! I like Kajol so I am used to unibrow. But these unibrows are fake, heavy and W*F. My brain is not yet cheer haraned, a bit in shock but still working so I will not allow my wallet to get cheer- haraned to pay for this. 😛

If anyone is protesting making Padmavathi and Deepika look this ugly sign me up !

I am surprised to see that a movie based on a poem is being compared to actual disrobing of someone. In this poll question, I'd vote for the first option, however it has nothing to do with a movie or a non-living entity IMO. There are movies made on REAL Rape-Murder cases where the rapist has been glorified (Dhananjaya in Bengali) which was much against the Supreme Court Verdict of 15 yrs back. That movie was like 100000 times more offensive because all characters were real and fresh in people's memory. Still it RELEASED !! And probably flopped. That's how it's expected to be dealt in Art business.


Comparing Art to a living being - I wont get that ever. Sorry.

Do whatever you want to do, but with absolutely no violence...Like grown up, educated people! NOT like cavemen.PERIOD!
Honestly its quite appalling to see all this rage over the idiotic things like costumes and a fictional Padmavati when there is a bigger problem looming in, in the name of communal feelings which this movie is threatening to stir up big time...

Yes thats the only one I have seen too but the plea was not even close to what they are demanding on grounds. So I don't know if the court has rejected any other plea and if not why haven't they approach the court with their objection that they have stated in their press meets.

I guess nobody is clear about who has filed cases and what actions have been taken but whatever is being done is not enough to control the situation as what can be seen.SLB only has police protection but these leaders are still openly instigating the crowd.

Since threats itself is a criminal offence one doesn't need to wait for them to be implemented before taking actions . I don't think ministers are supposed to side with goons either but they are happily doing it while citizens get threatened with consequences. Its the responsibility of the government to assure the citizen of their safety, not side with goons.

Lol toh phir aapko bolna chahiye ke " ab bhugte woh " . "ab bhugto" bologe toh usse toh it means the person u r talking to na.😆

Deepu toh kya mujhe toh abhi abhi ek member bhi regressive bolke gayi.😆 Itne se baat se mujhe farak nahin padhta itni sensitive abhi hui nahin hoon. But like I said she shouldn't have said so but just named the group. We as a nation have plenty of different kind of thoughts and can't be generalised in anyway. But then again technically dekha jaye toh madam ne apne aapko bhi regressive hi bola hai given she said "we" as a nation 😆


@bold- ye baat to kabka aayo gayi ho gayi 😆 court ne ball CBFC ke paale me daal di hai 😛

kya police sirf threats ke naam par ab logon ko jail me thoosne lage... what abt FOE now? "Bharat tere tukde honge" Bharat ki integrity ko direct threat nahi tha?...par us waqt to FOE ki jai ho ...par jab baat SLB ki aati hai to bharo sabko jail me... chalo mai iske liye bhi taiyyar hoon...par kam se kam SLB ko kuch to initiative lena chahiye na Karni sena ke khilaf fir lodge karke...ya saari creativity controversies built-up karne me hi kharch ho gayi?

if threats are criminal offense then what is your stake on those fatwas...abhi recenly Ramdev ke saath Yoga sikhane wali ek muslim ladki par na sirf fatwa jaari hua hai balki uske ghar me bhi tod-fod hui hai, along with life-threats given to her and her family by many people...kya police ne us maulvi ya baki logon ko arrest kiya jinhone ussey life-threats diya sirf yoga sikhane par... sirf ladki ko hi police protection diya na...aur sirf yahi case kyun?..there are hundreds of such fatwas which are nothing but threats (some including life-thretas or mutilation of limbs or body parts) but still no-one who issued those fatwas is arrested, only the threat receiver is provided protection... aur chalo un logon ki baat ek taraf rakh bhi dete hai to ye batao...agar poori mob threat dene lagegi to kya police ab jail bharo aandolna shuru kar degi ya fir sirf threat milne wale ko protection degi...what is more practical? I'm not an expert on legal matters so let the police, govt and SLB decide on the legal issues and take appropriate action ..even if it requires sending the whole karni sena to jai... I'm ok with that.


@red- ab bas mujhse legal draft hi taiyyar karva lo... par ek -ek word specify karna wo na ho payega mujhse...especially jab itne lambe lambe essays likh raha hoon... 😆

@blue- agree that u are not so sensitive...and neither am i ...but its not abt just u and me... that's what the issue is...if Deepika has problem with a person or certain faction then go ahead call them regressive as much she wants but the nation doesn't want her stamp of approval on its progressiveness... so if she's getting any criticism for the same, then its rightfully deserved.

@ brown- haan deepu definitely needs to become more progressive...cos progressiveness is much more than showing skin and playing with religious sensibilities.

while cheer-haran means stripping of clothes...it also means stripping of dignity ... and this isn't just about a movie but also a question about real life scenarios... where people protest or take other action, even before that incident happens..as a preventive measure.

ab movie ya movie character ko to disrobe nahi kar sakte na...haan par uski dignity ko dusre tareeke se disrobe jaroor kar sakte hai...

15 years back there was no internet revolution where every person had a mobile phone, an internet connection, and a twitter or facebook... so obviously people had very selected medium to register their protest or outrage...aur itna outrage hota bhi nahi tha because thanks to no facebook & twiiter there were lesser number of rumors or easily available provocation materials at hand to create such a huge unrest...but times have changed now... thanks to the internet revolution in India.

It wasn't just Amir Khusrau, no historian, be it Hindu or Muslim, make any mention of Padmini before Jayasi, we're talking of over 200 years of silence. It makes no sense for them to leave out the name of the queen who was allegedly the main reason behind the invasion of Chittor. Padmini was supposed to be from Sri Lanka, again, nothing in the annals of Sri Lanka mention a Padmini,

How did Jayasi invent Padmini? the same way Shakespeare invented Romeo and Juliet, the same way novelists and poets invent all characters - imagination. Today's folklore comes from Rajput adaptations of the poem, these adaptations were eventually regarded as historical.

If people want to maintain, that Padmini is a real life historical person, despite all evidence to the contrary, then that is blind faith.


ok that indeed seems pretty suspicious... and while i may not be 100% sure whether padmini is a real life character... over ages the rajputs do seem to have adopted her as their own...through folklores or other traditions... hence for them atleast padmini's existence may be as real as possible ...and over time they have associated her with their honor and history now... if someone were to mess with that then it's easy to understand that Rajput's wont to too pleased with that...

bilnd faith ho ya fir non-blind faith ho...faith to faith hoti hai... ab us par chot karoge to log jashn to nahi manayenge na 😳
