Adipurush Makers To Revise Dialogues After Backlash

New Delhi: The makers of Adipurush on Sunday decided to change certain controversial dialogues of the film after they received backlash for “distorting and disrespecting” the epic.

A statement issued by the film’s team says, “Adipurush is garnering an overwhelming response across the world and is conquering hearts of audiences across all ages. Making this visual spectacle a memorable cinematic experience, the team decides to make alterations to the film’s dialogues –Valuing the input of the public and the audience.”

It was further added, “The makers are revisiting the said dialogues, ensuring to resonate with core essence of the film and the same will reflect in the theaters in the next few days. This decision is a testament that inspite of unstoppable collections at the Box Office ,the team is committed and nothing is beyond the sentiments of their audiences and harmony at large.”

Manoj Muntashir Shukla, who was responsible for the film’s dialogues, penned a long note on Twitter. It can be loosely translated to, “I wrote over 4000 lines in Adipurush, certain sentiments were in 5 lines. However, in the remaining hundreds of lines, where Shri Ram was glorified, Maa Sita’s chastity was described, I didn’t receive any praise for that, I don’t know why.”

Further revealing the reason behind his post, he added, “Why this post? Because for me, there is nothing greater than your feeling. I can give countless arguments in favour of my dialogues, but this will not reduce your pain. Me and the producer-director of the film have decided to revise some of the dialogues which are hurting you. They’ll be added to the film this week.”
