Reportedly the members of the outfit disrupted the shooting of the film in Jaipur. Karni Sena is now demanding a written assurance from the makers of ‘Prithviraj’ that there would be no tampering of facts.

As per a PTI report, Karni Sena’s national president Mahipal Singh Makrana led its member and protested on the sets of the film in Jaipur. They asked director Chandra Prakash to stop shooting. Akshay was not present on the sets.

. Makrana was quoted saying, “Prithviraj Chauhan should not be portrayed as a lover in the film. The director has assured us that there is no such thing in the movie but we want a written assurance.”
