Quite a bunch of Rajputs are irked with Ashutosh Gowarikar's Jodhaa- Akbar. They have raised objections on Jodhaa Bai's origin, as Gowarikar believes. According to Rajputs, Jodhaa Bai was the daughter-in-law of Akbar, and not his wife, as shown in the film.

There has been some violence. Says CNN-IBN: "Opposing Ashutosh Gowarikar's movie, hundreds of youths belonging to the Rajput community staged a protest demonstration and shouted slogans against the film producer. They also burnt promotional posters of the film."

Gowarikar's depiction may well be a figment of his imagination, than any cinematic expression of though, but there are other ways of protesting than burning posters and demanding bans. If you think Gowarikar is wrong, don't watch it. Or write about it.
