Directed by Om Raut, 'Adipurush' starred Prabhas as Raghava, Kriti played Janaki, Sunny Singh played the role of Laxman, and Saif Ali Khan was seen as Lankesh. Post its release, certain dialogues in the film like?‘marega bete, ’bua ka bagicha hain kya' and 'jalegi tere baap ki' irked the audience and they thought it was an insult to the epic 'Ramayana'.?

After facing severe backlash, the makers?revamped the dialogues. The All India Cine Workers Association?wrote a letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Mumbai Police, where they demanded registration of a case against the producer, director, and writer of 'Adipurush'.?
