Protesters resorted to violence at the Inox multiplex in Jaipur, smashed window panes, on Monday. Also, a show at Jaipur’s renowned cinema hall, Raj Mandir, had to be cancelled.

Bharatpur observed a shutdown while Bikaner, too, witnessed protests with some people shutting doors of a cinema hall screening the film.

Rajasthan Tourism Minister Vishvendra Singh on Sunday demanded a ban on the film in North India.

Former Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje has tweeted her criticism. “The mistaken portrayal of the self-respecting, loyal and large-hearted emperor Maharaja Surajmal in the film ‘Panipat’ by the filmmaker is condemnable,” she wrote.
