Haryana BJP Chief Media Coordinator Suraj Pal Amu has offered a reward of Rs 10 crore for anyone who beheads Padmavati producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Deepika Padukone, and pledged to take care of his or her family, ANI reported.

He congratulated the Kshatriya Samaj member who recently announced a Rs 5 crore reward for such a deed.

What's more, Amu had this message for Ranveer Singh, who said Saturday he stood "200 per cent" with the film:

"If you don't take back your words, we will break your legs."

Amu asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene. See for yourself.

Meanwhile, members of the Akhand Rashtrawadi Party in Lucknow claim they've filed a petition against Padmavati in the Delhi High Court.

Protests, threats, insults and actual physical attacks have been legion in the run-up to the release date, which has now been postponed.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje Scindia has urged Information and Broadcasting Minister Smriti Irani to make sure the film isn't released without necessary cuts.

Raje also said the Censor Board should consider all possible results before certifying the film - a day after the Board sent the film back to its makers because the application for the certification was "incomplete".
