ADIPURUSH BACKLASH FROM AUDIENCE
The film has received a massive backlash on social media by a majority of netizens criticising the tacky dialogues which are seen as derogatory. Also, the dark presentation and poor VFX have played a spoilt-sport in making this grand narrative get a thumping applause from a wider audience base.
The mythological period drama based on the epic tale of Ramayana opens in theatres today and fans can't keep calm. The movie features Prabhas as Lord Rama, Kriti Sanon as Sita, Sunny Singh as Lakshmana, Saif Ali Khan plays Ravana and Devadatta Nage as Lord Hanuman.
Adipurush is produced by T-Series, Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar, Om Raut, Prasad Sutar, and Rajesh Nair of Retrophiles, Pramod and Vamsi of UV Creations. It is release worldwide on June 16, 2023.
