Mumbai: The team of 'Bajirao Mastani' is anxiously waiting for the films' release tomorrow. The movie has been trapped in several controversies so far. Produced and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film has Ranveer Singh essaying the role of Bajirao whereas Deepika Padukone will be potraying Mastani in the film. Priyanka Chopra, who is playing the role of Kashibai seems to be highly upset with the ugly ball game the film is dealing with.
The actress, who has voiced her opinions several times in the past, put up a long Twitter post expressing her disappointment towards those controversies. She wrote-
I can’t help staying silent on this anymore.. It’s too sad to see how films and actors become political pawns! Bans based on baseless propaganda.. Holding films ransom just before they release so that publicity can be garnered for certain agendas by forcing a producer to their knees.. How does no one speak up for what is right? How is this fair? People think films r just fun and games to make?! They r made with blood sweat and tears for entertainment!! Pls stand by the filmmakers who put in their life's money and hard work to make people laugh and smile. Don't let them be blackmailed and threatened by holding their films ransom just before release. Speak up before if there is an issue!! Everyone has a right to an opinion. The timing right before release just seems very suspect!! I know I may get into trouble for saying all this but I can't be a silent witness to character defamation based on opinions anymore.. That is not what, the India I grew up, taught me.
