Padmaavat tracks the story of Rani Padmini of Chittor and how she, along with other Rajput women, performed jauhar after Alauddin Khilji invaded Chittor fort. Padmaavat's release date was postponed by over a month. (Sanjay Leela Bhansali had initially planned to open the film last year on December 1).Padmaavat was cleared for a release in December, after several Rajput groups protested against the period drama.
