    Adipurush sees a new low after minting Rs 400 crore globally

    Prabhas and Kriti Sanon’s Adipurush successfully completed a week in theatres amid multiple controversies and calls for a ban. Despite negative reviews, the film, directed by Om Raut, raked in over Rs 400 crore at the box office worldwide. However, the mythological drama registered its lowest collection yet on June 22 in India. Adipurush is now relying on the weekend to see some incline in collection. If the film doesn’t pick up pace during the weekend, then Adipurush will be heading towards a disaster.
    Adipurush is a 3D film which hit theatres on June 16 in multiple languages. Ever since its release, the film has been receiving negative reviews from the critics and audiences alike. The Prabhas-starrer, which was made on a massive budget, finally crossed Rs 400 crore at the box office globally. However, after the opening weekend, the film has been seeing a decline in collection. Now all eyes are on the weekend. The film will have to pick up pace to breakeven.
    On June 22, Adipurush completed one week in theatres and it is estimated to have earned Rs 5.50 crore in India (net). This takes the total collection to Rs 260.55 crore with an occupancy rate of 10.17 per cent in Hindi.

    ‘Adipurush’ makers revise Lord Hanuman’s dialogue
    The makers of ‘Adipurush’ have been receiving flak for majorly two reasons – VFX and dialogues. A while back, the makers of the film decided to revise cringe-worthy dialogues from the film. One of which, was Lord Hanuman telling Indrajeet ‘jalegi tere baap ki’.
    ‘Adipurush’ makers have now revised the same. We came across a leaked visual where the word ‘baap was replaced’ with that of ‘Lanka’. Prabhas-starrer ‘Adipurush’ has been brutally trolled online for its crass dialogues. After all the flak, the makers had promised the audience to release a revised version of the film with a few changed dialogues. And so, they did.
    In a clip released online, we can see Lord Hanuman (played by Devdatta Nage), telling Indrajeet “Kapda teri Lanka ka, tel teri Lanka ka, aag bhi tere Lanka ki, jalega bhi teri Lanka hi.” In case you still missed, ‘baap’ has been replaced with ‘Lanka’.

  • Kriti Sanon and Prabhas to get engaged soon?

    Kriti Sanon and Prabhas to get engaged soon?

    Kriti Sanon who previously denied dating reports with co-star Prabhas, is now rumoured to get engaged soon. Reacting to the speculations, Prabhas’ team has dismissed the claims. Kriti and Prabhas will be starring together in their upcoming film, Adipurush.

    It all started when self-proclaimed film critic Umair Sandhu tweeted, “BREAKING NEWS: #KritiSanon & #Prabhas will get engaged next week in Maldives!! So Happy for them.” Earlier, dating rumours between Kriti and Prabhas sparked after the release of Adipurush teaser launch. Varun Dhawan who worked with Kriti in Bhediya, further fuelled the fire by hinting at Kriti’s relationship. However, he didn’t name Prabhas.

    While Kriti strongly quashed any such claims back then, now Prabhas’ team reacted to reports for engagement. His team told ETimes, “’Prabhas and Kriti are just friends. The news about them getting engaged is not true.” Earlier, Varun Dhawan was asked by Karan Johar on a show to name ‘eligible single women from the Hindi film industry.’ He skipped Kriti from the list and reasoned, “Kriti ka naam isiliye nahi tha kyunki Kriti ka naam kisi ke dil me hai. Ek aadmi hai jo Mumbai me nahi hai, vo iss waqt shooting kar raha hai Deepika (Padukone) ke saath. (Kriti’s name is not here because her name is in someone’s heart. That man is not in Mumbai because right now he is shooting with Deepika).”

    Later, Kriti clarified on her Instagram Stories, “It’s neither pyaar (love), nor PR.. our Bhediya just went a little too wild on a reality show. And his fun banter lead to some Howl-arious rumours (woman facepalming emoji). Before some portal announces my wedding date-let me burst your bubble. The rumours are ABSOLUTELY baseless! (folded hands and shrug emoji).”

    Meanwhile, Adipurush is produced by T Series and Retrophiles and directed by Om Raut. It is slated to hit the theatres on June 16, 2023. The film is based on the epic Ramayana. While Prabhas plays Lord Ram, Saif Ali Khan stars as the antagonist Lankesh in the movie. Kriti will be seen as Janaki and Sunny Singh as Lakshman.
