Political parties turning Adipurush into their punching bag. Om Raut's Adipurush is racing for a spectacular release in various languages on 16 June 2023 across the World. The film is based on Hindu Epic Ramayan and stars Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan in the lead roles.
Ahead of the Adipruush release, it seems political. parties are turning Adipurush into their punching bag for their own political gains. In a country, where claiming to be a Hindu is considered a heinous crime and chanting Jai Sri Ram is viewed as a sin by the so-called (Pseudo)Secular Parties, the tremendous response Adipurush trailers and songs are getting from across the country is sending shivers down their spines.
Even before the makers started their promotions, Telangana IT Minister, KTR, son of KCR went on record that Adipurush is made and is promoted by a particular party (BJP) to use it as propaganda. Even Telangana CM KCR in his internal meetings commented that one should gauge the response Adipurush gets in the state of Telangana.
West Bengal CM Mamata Bannerjee, in her state, banned the chanting of Jai Sri Ram and instead came up with the counter slogan Jai Siya Ram to divide all Hindus. Even AP CM Jagan who is busy promoting Christianity in the state and turning the entire state into Christianity is silently experiencing Adipurush scares. Rahul Gandhi's Congress and its political leaders are also closely monitoring Adipurush's response ahead of its release.
In the midst of all this, some social media groups started coming up with controversial posts that Adipurush makers are against Dalits and that Dalits will not be allowed to watch the film in theatres. Adipurush makers should be extremely vigilant as each and every act of them is closely monitored to create a controversy and one can see the negative response Kriti Sanon and Om Raut got for their act in Tirupathi. Parties may target Adipurush for their political gains, but no one can stop Adipurush's storm at the box office across the world.
