Mumbai, October 9 - A lot has happened over the past week regarding director Om Raut's magnum opus film Adipurush. The teaser of this Prabhas-fronted film was launched on October 3 amid huge anticipation, however, after its release, the teaser has become the center of controversy and criticism on various fronts. ## Based on the Hindu epic Ramayana, "Adipurush" is a VFX-heavy film that has become a huge topic of discussion. Immediately after the teaser launch, it received heavy criticism for poor VFX shots which were called cartoonish. However, the first reaction from director Om Raut to the criticism was that he didn't make the movie for mobile and that it will look larger-than-life on the big screen. ## Since "Adipurush" has been made on a huge budget, it was important for the makers to shut down the criticism and win public trust again for the movie that is touted to be the most prestigious film in the country. While doing so, makers approached a way that changed the perception of the audience towards it.## Om Raut has been saying from the first day that "Adipurush" will be an altogether new theatrical experience, and to solidify his words, the makers showed the teaser to the Hindi media people and critics on the big screen in 3D and those who were criticizing started applauding the teaser for the grandeur it involves. ## The makers did the same with the Telugu version and along with the media and critics, the Telugu teaser was also screened for the audience in approx. 60 locations. And the response from them has been completely different from what they were talking about earlier. ## Apart from criticizing the VFX, the teaser has also invited fresh controversy as many have alleged that the characters of "Ramayana" have been tampered with, and one of them is the look of Raavan, played by Saif Ali Khan. This is not the first time when films on historical and mythological topics hit controversy but this time, the makers are tackling this situation in rather a positive way. ## Om Raut along with Manoj Muntashir, who has written the dialogues of the film, have been giving intreviews from the last few days, making people understand their vision and this has made a positive impact as many prominent personalities have come out in the support of the film along with the neutral audience. ## It has been seen in the past that after such heavy trolling of a movie, makers have opted wait and watch policy. The "Adipurush" makers could also have said that people's mindset will be changed after watching the movie, but they aren't doing this and heavily promoting their film in what can be termed as a perfect and right way.## "Adipurush" is produced by T-Series and Retrophiles and also stars Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan, and Sunny Singh in prominent roles. It is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023, in multiple languages, also in IMAX and 3D.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, October 5 - The teaser of director Om Raut's mega movie Adipurush, starring Prabhas, has been under scrutiny for poor VFX. "Adipurush" is probably the most trolled movie in recent times, however, Om Raut has strongly defended the teaser amid criticism. ## Om Raut and T-Series showed the teaser to industry people on the big screen, and the reaction from the screening has completely opposite to what the audience is saying. The teaser also revealed the first look of Prabhas as Raghava, Kriti Sanon as Janaki, and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, based on Lord Rama, Goddess Sita, and Ravana from the epic Ramayana respectively. ## The filmmaker interacted with the media after showing the teaser to the industry people. He said that he was dishearted to see the audience's reaction but wasn't surprised as he made the movie for the big screen, not for the mobile. ## "I was disheartened for sure, not surprised because the film is made for a larger medium — the big screen. You can cut it down to some extent but can't bring it down to a mobile phone. That's an environment I can't control. Given a choice, I'd never put it on YouTube but that's the need of the hour. We need to put it there so that it reaches a wide audience", Raut said according to Hindustan Times.## "My partner and the studio (T-Series) is the largest YouTube channel in the world. This film does require an audience that comes to cinema halls very rarely — primarily the senior citizen generation that doesn't come to cinemas or people from remote locations who don't have access to theaters".## "We need those people to come and see the film because it's Ramayana... We need to reach a wider audience and get them excited. So, as I said, I was not surprised because it's not made for the smaller screen. It's made for a larger screen and I can't consume it on a smaller screen", he added.## Produced by T-series, and Retrophiles, the movie is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023, in 3D and IMAX in multiple languages.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, October 4 - The teaser of Prabhas-fronted Adipurush was launched recently and it met with mixed reactions from the fans and critics. Directed by Om Raut, Adipurush is one of the most-awaited Indian films, but it seems the makers will have to spend more time on certain things to correct them before the final output is ready. ## "Adipurush" is Raut's take on the Hindu epic "Ramayana", by Valmiki, where Rama, the king of Ayodhya, travels to Lanka to rescue his wife Sita, who has been abducted by the king Ravana. The movie is set 7,000 years ago and in the film, Prabhas' character is not called Rama, he is Raghav, another name for Rama. Sita, played by Kriti Sanon, is called Janaki, while Saif Ali Khan's Ravana is Lankesh. ## Om Raut, in a recent interview with Variety, said that Prabhas was always his first choice for Raghav's character. "If it was not him, I would have not made the film", the filmmaker said and added that he designed the character to move beyond the "Prabhas persona". ## "The way he has played it is divine. It's extremely spiritual on many levels, yet at the same time, it's a commercial flick. So, it has that crazy balance of playing to the gallery, obviously, like everybody does, but at the same time, we had to maintain the sanctity and purity of the character and stay within that boundary and try to achieve what we want to achieve", Raut added.## It was not easy for Prabhas' to say yes to the movie because he thought it's the most precious film for the country and he had doubts if he could do justice to the character. But it was Raut who convinced him and asked not to worry about Raghav's role.## "Om designed the film for the present generation and wanted a swagger, which no other director could think of Adipurush like that. He designed it for kids and families. Even women love my action, so there's a lot of action. And, he designed it in a commercial way, so I think it's very happy news for the fans", Prabhas said.## Produced by T-Series and Retrophiles, "Adipurush" is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023, in Hindi, and Telugu along with dubbed versions of Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam languages. It will also be released in IMAX and 3D.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, October 1 - SS Rajamouli's Baahubali The Conclusion became a massive blockbuster in the Hindi languages, and the movie established Prabhas as one of the biggest superstars in the country. While the movie was shot in Telugu, it was actor Sharad Kelkar who gave his voice to Prabhas' Baahubali, and this played a massive role in the film's huge success. ## After "Baahubali" Prabhas dubbed his own Hindi voice in his next two films' "Saaho" and "Radhe Shyam" and this didn't go well with the Hindi audience.
