In November, after meeting Rajput community leaders, Chouhan had announced that the film would not be allowed to release in the state.
The Supreme Court has stayed the orders/notifications issued by the Rajasthan and Gujarat governments prohibiting the screening of "Padmaavat", and restrained other state governments from issuing similar orders.
