Adipurush, starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan, has fallen short of box office projections by a huge margin. Directed by Om Raut, Adipurush had earned a staggering Rs 140 crore worldwide on its opening day. However, the film has fallen flat to Rs 5.5 crore in just seven days.
Last week, the makers announced that they decided to slash ticket prices for the Prabhas starrer to Rs 150 for Thursday and Friday shows. Their move came after the box office collection of Adipurush witnessed a massive drop on last Monday and Tuesday amid a growing backlash against the film. The film has been facing severe criticism for allegedly distorting the Hindu epic Ramayana and its characters in the movie. Now, the makers have further slashed the prices. The new price stands at Rs 112.
“Witness the epic saga unfold! Book your tickets starting from just Rs112/-* and experience the grandeur world of Adipurush Offer starts tomorrow! #JaiShriRam ” read the announcement on T-Series’ official Twitter handle.
On June 18, the team of Adipurush decided to make “alterations” to the film’s dialogues after the dialogues of Hanuman received backlash for sounding overly colloquial, offending the audience. The makers revisited the ones that have not gone down well with the audience, ensuring to resonate with core essence of the film. The film is now screening with the edited dialogues. One of the most controversial dialogues, “Kapda tere baap ka… toh jalegi bhi tere baap ki” has been modified to “Kapda teri Lanka ka… toh jalegi bhi teri Lanka.”
Directed by Om Raut, Adipurush is an adaptation of the Hindu mythological epic Ramayan.
