Directed by Om Raut, Adipurush is a mythological drama that has been made on a budget of Rs 300 crore. It is touted to be a cinematic adaptation of the Indian epic Ramayana and Prabhas’ character is inspired by Lord Ram, while Kriti plays Janaki in the film. Besides them, the film also stars Saif Ali Khan as the antagonist King Ravana, and Sunny Singh as Laxman. Jointly bankrolled by Bhushan Kumar’s T-series and Retrophiles, the film’s shoot was wrapped up last year in less than four months.
Meanwhile, Prabhas and Kriti were recently rumoured to be dating each other. However, later it was revealed that the rumors are nonsense and it could very well be a publicity stunt for Adipurush.
