Ranveer Singh supports Sanjay Leela Bhansali amid Padmavati controversy

Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali‘s upcoming magnum opus film Padmavati continues to make headlines. The film is embroiled in a spate of controversies as certain fringe groups and politicians are protesting against it. While some are outraged over Deepika Padukone's comments when she called India as a regressed nation, some want the film to be banned for allegedly distorting historical facts. And some want Bharat Bandh on December 1.
