Adipurush is out in theatres and while the first reactions to the Om Raut film have been quite mixed so far, with many criticising the film’s visual effects while other praising the film, one particular incident in Hyderabad turned violent. In a video being shared on social media platforms, it can be seen that one audience member is talking to the press gathered outside Prasad IMAX. When he expressed his opinions on the film, the crowd around him started beating him up.
The audience member said, “They kept all the monsters from the play station games in this one. Except for Hanuman, background score and some 3D shots here and there, there is nothing else.” When asked about Prabhas’ performance as Raghav, he said, “Absolutely doesn’t suit, in the get up. In Baahubali, he was like a king and there was a royalty. Seeing the royalty in that, they took him for this role. Om Raut did not show Prabhas properly.” As soon as he expressed his thoughts, the crowd around him jumped on him and he ultimately had to be rescued.
Adipurush’s visual effects have been criticised right from the time when the makers released its first teaser. Since there was a significant backlash towards the visual effects, the makers postponed the release date of the film but judging by the reactions of many fans that have been sharing their opinion on social media, it appears that the VFX department of the film has come under the scrutiny.
Adipurush starring Prabhas, Saif Ali Khan and Kriti Sanon is Om Raut’s interpretation of Ramayana. The film is aiming for Rs 130 crore-plus global box office opening. Earlier reports claimed that the film has been made on a budget of Rs 500 crore and after the sale of distribution and OTT rights, the film has already made Rs 480 crore.
So far in 2023, only Pathaan has been able to make a big impact at the box office. Pathaan grossed over Rs 100 crore worldwide on the day of release, as per Yash Raj Films. The film ultimately earned over Rs 1000 crore from its theatrical run.
