Adipurush teaser out; most precious film, says Prabhas #IndiaNEWS #Entertainment
Ayodhya: Adipurush, one of the most anticipated Indian films of 2023, whose first teaser was released here on Sunday, unites the talents of Prabhas (of the Baahubali franchise) and Om Raut, who directed the Ajay Devgn-starrer Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, the biggest Indian box office hit of 2020, reports Variety.
Adipurush is Rauts take on the Ramayana by Valmiki. The film is set 7,000 years ago and in the film, Prabhass character is not called Lord Ram, he is Raghav, which is another name for Ram.
Sita, played by Kriti Sanon, is called Janaki (as in King Janakas daughter), while Saif Ali Khans Ravana is Lankesh (lord of Lanka), which are also derivatives of their Ramayana names, notes Variety.
Adipurush literally means first man, but here the interpretation is that of best man.
Post Tanhaji, Raut could have called any Indian A-lister for his next film but he chose Prabhas. I always had Prabhas in my mind when I was writing Raghavs character it became so compelling for me, Raut said in a conversation with Variety. If it was not him, I would have not made the film.
Raut made it to Hyderabad from Mumbai in the middle of Indias first Covid-19 lockdown to discuss the film with Prabhas in person. The actor describes the meeting as a super exciting day.
After three days, I got a little stressed because I thought its the most precious film for the country can I do it? Prabhas told Variety. Om said not to worry and so it was a beautiful thing that happened. I think its the most prestigious film in my life.
Prabhas says he signed on because of Rauts intriguing screenplay and how it integrates the history and culture of India. The way he designed the film was amazing, huge. And I think he made it very well, Prabhas said.
