Erstwhile royal of Udaipur, Vishvaraj Singh, has stated reservation about being a part of the commission, which has been formed to examine matters relating to the controversial movie 'Padmavati'.Vishvaraj Singh, a member of the Mewar royal family, was invited by Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) chief, Prasoon Joshi, to be a part of the projected committee to aid it in the process of certifying Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum-opus.

In a letter of December 22, Singh said he would be 'happy' to meet Joshi but also stated, "I have very strong reservations about seeing the film as to my mind it will open a Pandora's box of new and superfluous discussions. Owing to the manner in which the film's production has advanced from its very origin and seeing to how related matters have developed, I would insist on a formal clarification of the points raised by me before I make a decision regarding being on the Committee."Singh further termed the film as an incarnation of 'unprofessional and unethical style of functioning.'

"I cannot help but detect that all this extra attempt is going into presenting a product that has been damaged and one that from the very opening only represent an unskilled and unethical style of functioning," Singh wrote while concluding the letter.
