'Adipurush' Final Worldwide Box Office Collection and Records

Produced by T-Series and Retrophiles, "Adipurush" was director Raut's modern take on the epic "Ramayana" and he announced the film with huge enthusiasm in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the filmmaker had no idea back then that it was going to be the most horrible experience of his career and that he shouldn't have modernized the epic.

The movie had already become the centre of controversy when the first teaser was dropped last year. The teaser was slammed for the poor VFX and the wrong depiction of the characters of Ramayana. This forced the makers to postpone the release from January 2023 to June, however, these efforts didn't prove enough as the characterization and the basic plot of the film, which invited controversy, couldn't have been replaced.

"Adipurush" was released in theatres on June 16, and despite the huge worldwide opening of over 100 crores, the movie couldn't survive for long at the box office after receiving poor critics and audience reception. A subject, which could have re-write box office history for the Indian cinema, succumbed to its mediocrity and also brought a lot of negativity to the talent involved.

The film was made on a budget of over 400 crores, making it one of the costliest films ever in Indian cinema, and it finished below 400 crores at the global box office.

Have a look at some of the records "Adipurush" created at the box office -

- Highest-grossing film of Kriti Sanon.

- Highest-grossing film of director Om Raut.

- Highest-grossing film of Saif Ali Khan.
