Sanjay Leela Bhansali's epic piece Padmavati, now known as Padmaavat likely the most controversial film of the last year.Padmaavat now becomes a historical film in its actual sense. After the much speculated-cum-challenged release of the film was announced on 25 January with the change of film's title, it is now being expected that the song 'Ghoomar' will also go under the scanner.

According to a report by Navbharat Times, Deepika Padukone's midsection will be covered in the song before the film hits the theatres on 25 January. The song has been at the centre of national debate over the supposed "wrong, inaccurate" portrayal of the 13th-century legendary Rajput queen Padmini of Chittorgarh.

'Ghommar' sung by Shreya Ghoshal is the first track from Padmaavat (then Padmavati) album that released and became an Internet sensation when it received more than 10 million hits within 24 hours of its release which was a record achievement.

The Rajput Karni Sena, the associate of the Rajputana royalty have come out in objection saying queens of their community never danced in public. They reportedly were distressed over the display of skin during the song, which they feel shows Rajput queens and Rajput customs in wrong way.
