A lie is being created: Swara Bhasker claims jauhar remarks were mistranslated

Actor Swara Bhasker has responded to the criticism she received after calling the jauhar sequence in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat “problematic”. In a video message, Swara questioned those who, according to her, misinterpreted her comments made at a recent event and drew their own conclusions about what she meant.Clarifying her stance, the actor said she never questioned Rani Padmavati or the women who died during jauhar. Instead, she said her criticism was directed at the film’s portrayal of jauhar, and the way it connects sexual violence, women’s honour and the choice between death and survival.In the video, the actor claimed that her words are being ‘wrongly’ translated and urged everyone to watch the original video before making any comments.“Ek aur din and ek aur Twitter controversy.
