Arun Govil Slams 'Adipurush' As 'Hollywood Ki Cartoon,' Criticizes Makers
Prabhas and Kriti Sanon's film 'Adipurush' has made a staggering Rs 340 crores worldwide in its opening weekend. However, the movie has faced severe criticism from moviegoers, netizens, and even politicians due to its portrayal of characters, dialogues, and visual effects. Arun Govil, who famously portrayed the role of Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar's iconic television series 'Ramayan' in 1987, recently expressed his discontent with the makers of 'Adipurush'. He lashed out at director Om Raut, describing the film as a "Hollywood ki cartoon" and questioning the necessity of modernizing the mythological story.
'Adipurush', directed by Om Raut, is based on the epic Ramayana and features Prabhas and Kriti Sanon in the lead roles of Lord Ram and Sita, respectively. The filmmakers intended to present 'Adipurush' as a cinematic adaptation that would resonate with the modern generation and youth. Their aim was to reintroduce the mythological tale on the big screen, allowing a wider audience to learn about it. However, their attempt seems to have fallen short, as people have expressed disappointment with the execution of the film.
