While there is news that 300 cuts have been advised for Padmavat, the CBFC chief Prasoon Joshi says it is not correct.

On December 28, the CBFC finally decided to agree to give the film a certificate. But they recommended several modifications. One of them was the name change from – Padmavati to Padmavat – which became the joke of the season.

But besides the modification in the title, the CBFC has also been instructed to delete all references to Delhi, Chittorgarh and Mewar from the film. As per reports, it has resulted in as many as 300 cuts!

Prasoon Joshi had claimed that the film has five ‘modifications’ – firstly, the disclaimer should claim that the film is not historically accurate, secondly, the title should be changed to Padmavat, thirdly, there should be appropriate modifications in the song ‘Ghoomar’.

Fourthly, modifications should be done to the incorrect/misleading references to historical places and lastly, there should a disclaimer added that the film in no manner subscribes to the practice of Sati or seeks to glorify it.
