Deepika padukone's padmavati faces trouble again will not release befo

The Central Board of Film Certification is
likely to appoint a panel of historians to
watch "Padmavati, after the makers of the
movie stated that it was partially based on
historical facts, according to sources.The
"Padmavati team, which was hoping to get
a quick censor clearance after the Gujarat
elections may be in for disappointing
news.Source at the censor board said that
the makers of "Padmavati had
"unnecessarily complicated its case with an
ambiguous disclaimer in its application for
certification which stated that the film was
partially based on historical facts.The
content will now have to be scrutinised for
authenticity, the source said declining to be
named. The film had earlier been sent back
to the producers after it was found that the
column for stating whether it was a work of
fiction or was based on historical facts was
left blank.
There were protests against the movie by
some fringe Hindutva outfits which said it
was "insulting to Rajput pride. Several
politicians then weighed in saying they
won't allow the release of the movie in
Rajasthan.The source in the CBFC said that
"Padmavati could only be certified in
January, since December was almost over.
"We have not scheduled the film. There are
at least 40 feature films in different
languages waiting in the queue before
"Padmavati, the source said. (ALSO

Because of the year-end, some board
members were on holiday and a few others
had called in sick. "Forget about appointing
a panel of historians, we don't even have a
normal Examining Committee to view all the
films, the source said.Even by conservative
estimates the film won't be certified before
the second week of January. I don't think
they can release the film before March or
April. That is, provided the CBFC clears the
film without any objection, the source said.
