: After Mumbai, it was Delhi’s turn to catch Jodhaa Akbar walk down the red carpet at the capital's premiere of Ashutosh Gowarikar's magnum opus.
The film has also been in the news for being boycotted in Rajasthan for allegedly distorting historical facts.
Here's what the lead pair Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai have to say to the protestors.
“I would request all the people to watch the film and this itself will quell all the rebellion,” says Aishwarya.
“It is a film. Grab your popcorn and watch the film. Enjoy,” says Hrithik.
And it sure looked like Aishwarya did do her homework, before stepping out to face the controversy.
“Jodha was documented in five different names and Jodhaa was the most popular and that is why we have titled and taken that name,” says Aishwarya.
If that doesn't end the matter, Gowarkiar also makes his case for the film.
“I would appeal to all the Rajput conveners to go and watch the film. I want it to release in Rajasthan. It does not hurt their honour,” says Gowariker.
While the ambitious period drama has so far received mixed reviews from critics, the Box Office verdict is still out on this one.
