The movie, Adipurush, which is based on the Ramayana, has caused a stir across the country and is now facing opposition. The film had already faced a protest in Madhya Pradesh before its release, but the opposition was suppressed.
Home Minister Narottam Mishra had objected to the film when its trailer was released. He had said that Lord Hanuman was dressed in leather-made attire and also objected to some dialogues in the movie, warning of legal action against the filmmaker. The dialogue writer of the film, Manoj Muntashir, met with Mishra to address his objection, and the film director promised to remove the objectionable dialogues.
However, after the release of the film, it was discovered that the director had not made any changes despite the warning. Many people were against Mishra’s objection to the film, and the Congress has even launched a countrywide protest against it.
The BJP leaders, who were initially opposed to Mishra’s comments over the film, are now opposing the dialogues and the way the film has been made. A former minister, Ajay Bishnoi, was upset after watching the movie and advised those who adore Lord Ram, Goddess Sita, and Lord Hanuman to keep away from watching it.
Dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir is close to the BJP governments and has been invited to several functions in the state. However, his controversial statements have also caused issues for him. On Bhopal foundation day, he called Nawab Hamidullah a terrorist, which resulted in an organisation issuing a legal notice to him. He was also invited to a function related to martyr Bhagat Singh and another event organised by Maharaja Vikramaditya Research Centre.
In conclusion, the film, Adipurush, has caused a stir across the country and is now facing opposition from various quarters. The controversy surrounding the movie is expected to continue for some time, and it remains to be seen what fate awaits the creators of the film.
