When the first trailer was released it received tremendous appreciation from industry people and fans alike. But soon the film was embroiled in one controversy after another. The initial release date of December 1 was pushed to January 25. The censor board has already reviewed the film passing it with U/A certificate. Now due to pressure from fringe groups and political parties, the film has been banned in five states in India (Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat) thus far.
The ardent fans, however, will still look forward to this epic of a project. The movie has been of keen interest to the fans of the lead stars, owing to their strong characters. The film has an added visual delight added to it, with it being released in 3D as well. We wonder after all this renaming and changes incorporated, how will Bhansali’s period drama fare? What do you think of this new trailer? Do let us know.
