Om Raut’s magnum opus Adipurush starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan and others hit the theatres on June 16, 2023. However, things did not seem to go as planned for the makers. The film instantly courted controversy for its ‘Tapori’ dialogues, poor VFX, unimpressive acting chops and even sexualizing the characters from the Indian mythological epic Ramayana. While a section of fans and movie buffs compared the Om Raut directorial with Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan, Indians are in for a surprise as the show is now set for another re-run on television.

Now, following the massive controversy around Adipurush, makers have decided to bring back the mythological drama on Shemaroo TV. 

DATE AND TIME 

Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan, which starred Arun Govil as Lord Ram and Deepika Chikhalia as Sita, with Arvind Trivedi playing Ravan and Dara Singh essaying Hanuman, is all set for its second official re-run from July 3, Monday to Saturday at 7:30 pm. 

Speaking about Adipurush, Arun Govil labelled the film 'Hollywood Ki Cartoon' and pointed out that he is troubled by the viral dialogues and clips he saw on social media. 

Meanwhile, Deepika Chikhalia, who starred as Sita, said, "This is an issue with new-gen actors, as they fail to immerse in the character and understand its emotions. For them, Ramayana might have been just a film. Perhaps they failed to make a spiritual connection."

Sunil Lahri said that he had "high expectations" from Adipurush but called the film "disappointing." "You can't play with your culture in the name of doing something different. The audience doesn't find any emotional attachment with the scenes. In fact, the dialogues are also poor."

The film has received mixed reviews from several people from across the country. Many have expressed their disappointment with the film's certain dialogues. Some of which include 'marega bete', 'bua ka bagicha hain kya' and 'jalegi tere baap ki'. In the wake of such flak, the makers of Adipurush revamped the dialogues.
