"We clarify that there is no dream sequence or any objectionable scene between Rani Padmavati and Allauddin Khilji. In spite of this, the attack on the shoot and crew was uncalled for and was extremely damaging to the image of the beautiful city of Jaipur. "Thanking the authorities in Jaipur, Bhansali said their swift response helped in containing the damages on the sets. "We are grateful to the authorities at Jaipur who responded promptly and limited the damage on shoot. We do not want to hurt any sentiments and would appreciate if the local people support us in making this film and making their queen revered by the world."
