Padmaavat movie is released today, i.e; January 25. After the much unexpected postpones from December 1st of 2017, the movie somehow managed to hit the screens today. With an overwhelming response from the audience and rave reviews from all the critics, the movie is all set to join one of the Bollywood’s highest grosser of this year, maybe, for a lifetime.

Not just that, to all those people who recklessly denied the release fearing the insensitivity in the movie, Bhansali answered them in 3D. The premiers started yesterday, and one can boldly say that Bhansali’s cast didn’t fail to impress us at any instance. As we already know the storyline, all that director has to do is impress the audience with the storyline, and he did that perfectly.

Bhansali did a good job, he delivered the utmost work from his side and just like he does in every movie, he once again presented us a larger than life show. Well, coming to the factors of adaptation, we all know that the story of the movie is taken from the 14th century’s much-admired writer Malik Muhammad Jayasi, who himself wrote two versions of the movie.

With only parts ignored from both the parts, the whole story is represented by some major changes, maybe, to cut the run-time. However, the cuts and edits didn’t fail to affect the soul of the film. Coming to the logistical factors of the movie, just as people get paid for the biopics based on them, writers will be paid in the same fashion (despite that he/she writes for the movie or not).

And the latter was taken seriously by the people of Amethi, a village in Uttar Pradesh where Muhammad Jayasi was born and brought up as per the sources. Now that the writer belongs to their villages, the people of the place are demanding profits from the movie, which sounds quite ridiculous.

In general, the makers somehow has to pay for the writer’s family or someone, as Jayasi’s family dates back to more than 500 centuries, there’s no successor or anyone found around and there’s no way to pay the writer. This plan of the villagers is quite new and maybe, as per the current rate of success of Padmaavat, donating a mere lakhs of rupees or a crore doesn’t make too much difference to the whole collections which are expected to cross over Rs 400 crores or around.

Let us wait and see how Bhansali is going to react to the issue.
