Padmavati Will Be Shown To Historians & Authoritative Individuals, Confirm Producers

The  ghunghat of  secrecy  over the  controversial content  of Padmavati has finally been lifted .The film will be shown before release to handpicked individuals , scholars ,historians and a few politicians.

The pre-release screening will happen as soon as  Padmavati is  certified by the  Central Board  Of Film Certification(CBFC).

Confirming  this Ajit Andhare  the COO Viacom 18  Motion Pictures who are co-producers  on Padmavati says, “We are focusing  first on securing the censor certificate. Once we have that we as producers are happy to screen it selectively to representatives if needed to quell any doubts or misgivings.”

However  Ajit adds  that there is  no rule as such for a film being shown to any other individual or body of individuals once a film is certified. “Although there is no precedent of such a screening and CBFC alone is the statutory body tasked by the Government of India for this. However we are ready to make an exception given the scope of unfounded misgivings about the film.”
