Shahid Kapoor on Padmavati: We won't hurt people's sentiments

Actor Shahid Kapoor as said his forthcoming film Padmavati is being made keeping in mind the sentiments of people after the movie's set was vandalised in two separate incidents recently.

The Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed period drama faced the ire of certain groups, who attacked the filmmaker and also damaged the film's set, alleging distortion of history over the depiction of queen Padmavati.


"Our attempt will be to shoot the film smoothly. And we just hope when the film releases people look at it in an unbiased way and after that they can say what they want to. Sanjay sir is keeping in mind the sentiments of the people. We will not do anything that will hurt people," Shahid said.
