Priyanka Chopra may have been away from the promotion tour of Bajirao Mastani on account of shooting for Quantico, but the lassie has spoken about the bans being imposed on the biopic of Maratha warrior Bajirao Peshwa.
Writing a long Tweet, the star said that she cannot stay silent on the matter anymore. "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?"

Shiv Sena MLA from Thane district Pratap Sarnaik has submitted a memorandum to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis requesting him to stop the release of Bajirao Mastani until the contentious, controversial scenes in the film are cut. The songs 'Pinga' and 'Malhari' have already landed in troubled waters.
Earlier, Chopra had said that nobody raised objections when the book, Rau, the movie is based on was published. She had said that there is difference between 'inspired from history' and ' based on history.' She also added that it's the director's vision to show the personal life of Bajirao because not much has been written about his personal life."What happened when he ate dinner? At home? He lived a life too...there are things that history books don't tell you about."
Chopra is aware of the possible troubles she might get into for voicing her opinion. But says that she cannot be a silent witness to character defamation based on opinions anymore. "That is not what, the India I grew up, taught me."
