PETALING JAYA: The local distributor for banned Bollywood film Padmaavat has confirmed that its appeal to the Film Censorship Board of Malaysia (LPF) has been rejected.

“Unfortunately, the film is still banned. LPF reviewed the film today and decided to uphold the ban,” said Antenna Entertainments managing director Liza Anand.
