Hours after the CBFC's decision to certify
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmavati with a
UA' subject, wild rumours of 26' cuts
ordered by the censor board have begun
doing the rounds.
However, a well-placed source confirms
there are no cuts ordered by the CBFC.
" Padmavati was viewed by regular panel
members of the board, and invitee
historians. They all thought the film's main
content was inviolable and legitimate. So no
cuts per se have been ordered. However,
the CBFC has suggested 5 modifications,
two of them featuring Deepika Padukone
performing the traditional Rajasthani
custom of Ghoomar and Jauhar.
The CBFC wants the Ghoomar' dance to
undergo minor changes. Apparently, the
flashes of Deepika's belly and naval region
during the dance are seen to be not
befitting the status of the warrior queen
that she plays.
The climactic Jauhar sequence where the
Rani and hundreds of her followers jump
into a burning pyre to escape the lust of the
invader has been asked to be toned down.
"There are vivid startling scenes of women
perishing in the fire. Though visually
stunning they leave a disturbing
impact.They've asked for some shots to be
altered, says a source.
