Bollywood director Om Raut has finally addressed the mixed reception of his much-anticipated film Adipurush. Despite its impressive box office performance, grossing over ₹400 crores worldwide, the film faced significant criticism for its portrayal of characters and dialogues.
In a recent interview, Raut acknowledged that Adipurush did not meet the expectations of many viewers. However, he emphasized that box office success is the primary measure of a film’s success, dismissing criticism and trolls as irrelevant. His statement, “There is no need to pay attention to the comments, criticisms, or trolls made by people who do not understand the nuances of filmmaking,” has sparked further debate.
Netizens have argued that the film’s quality did not justify its massive budget of ₹600 crores. Adipurush, featuring Kriti Sanon as Janaki and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, was met with backlash for its visual effects and dialogue. Many viewers claimed that the film’s portrayal of revered characters lacked depth and authenticity, leading to widespread disappointment.
The dialogue penned by Manoj Muntashir Shukla also faced scrutiny, prompting an apology from the writer for certain lines that were deemed offensive. The film’s release has highlighted a growing divide between box office success and critical reception in the film industry. While Adipurush may have performed well financially, the backlash it received raises questions about the filmmakers’ responsibilities in portraying culturally significant narratives. As discussions continue, it remains to be seen how Raut and his team will address the concerns raised by audiences and critics alike.
