NEW DELHI. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Arjun Gupta wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi , requesting an investigation into allegations that ' Padmavati ' is financed from Dubai, reported ANI.Arjun, who is also Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) member, wants a probe by Enforcement Directorate into allegations levelled by colleague and veteran BJP leader Subramanian Swamy earlier this month. Swamy had claimed that Sanjay Leela Bhansali ’s magnum opus had received funding from Dubai.Arjun further questioned how the film was shown to British Board of Film Classification without getting a CBFC certificate in India.Arjun has been at the forefront of leaders seeking a ban on 'Padmavati'. He even wanted a sedition case registered against Bhansali and he be tried for “treason” for “distorting history”.In a letter addressed to Home Minister Rajnath Singh, the BJP leader had said, “The whole country, not just the Rajput community, is standing against it. He needs to be severely punished by being tried for treason for his attempt to distort history, so that in future any filmmaker is wary of these kind(s) of projects."Now Arjun wants Swamy’s accusations to be taken seriously by PM.Earlier, a right- wing organisation 'Virat Hindustan Sangam', floated by Rajya Sabha MP Swamy had held protests against 'Padmavati' in Patna and burnt the effigy of Bhansali.Swamy also questioned in a tweet if Dubai was going to fund another Bollywood film that will distort Ramayana.
