Adipurush centered on the epic Ramayan. The movie received severe criticism for its sloppy rendition of the material, which Hindus regard as sacred. Adipurush was also negatively condemned, and many people called for it to be banned or boycotted. Several lawsuits were filed in different courts against the filmmakers, including director Om Raut and scriptwriter

Manoj Muntashir, for allegedly infringing on religious feelings. As a result, Om Raut, the director, and other cast members vanished from public view for several weeks after the film’s premiere. Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan played the lead roles in the film.
