Markets remained closed for the day as various social and traders' organisations supported the protest.
A large procession from Chittorgarh's Padmavati Jauhar Kund passed through the city roads with women holding placards which said 'Stop insulting culture', 'Declare Bhansali a traitor' and 'Hindustan will not tolerate insult of women'.
"The protest was called on by Jauhar Smriti Samiti of Chittorgarh and I was invited as a guest. Markets remained voluntarily shut and a large number of people came out on roads to protest against 'Padmavati'," said patron of Sri Rajput Karni Sena, Lokendra Kalvi.
