From facing the violent protests by fringe groups and mobsters to a long delay in getting approved by the Censor Board, the journey of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s most talked about movie Padmaavat has been full of unparalleled struggles and is still facing opposition in many states.

Regardless of the never-ending controversies surrounding the movie, Padmaavat has managed to sail through all the disturbances and the first three days box-office collections of its dramatic run are a strong evidence to prove it.
Critics and audiences have applauded the performances of the movie’s leading actors Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and the captivating visuals of the epic story.
