In the issue of the ongoing contention over Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film 'Padmavati, another flimmaker Shyam Benegal on Tuesday came out in support to the movie saying that government should stop such offender from creating disturbance against movie.Benegal said, "When Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) certifies a film to be shown all over the country, it means the movie should be allowed to release. The government cannot support the people who do not want the film to be shown. Instead, support those who want to show the film. The government has to stop people who are creating a ruckus for the film to be shown because what they are doing is illegal."

"We have a rule in this country that whenever CBFC certifies a film to be shown in the country it means it has to be allowed that right to be able to show the film. After all the government has given a certificate so it has to stop people who are trying to overwrite the film. In such a situation whatever political interest might be it is a different thing," added Benegal.

On the other hand, a day after the Indian Film and TV Directors Association (IFTDA) held a press conference to extend support to the movie, members of Karni Sena on Tuesday vandalised a Mall in Kota, Rajsthan as a part of their protest against 'Padmavati's trailer being shown at the cinema hall. Women of Rajput community from Jaipur also held protest against the film on Tuesday.
