Though the movie opened to mixed response, it has collected good numbers at the box office. However, the special shows of Adipurush have resulted in a big loss for the buyers.

For the 1st time in history, the renowned multiplex Prasad’s IMAX had arranged six early morning shows at 4 AM. The shows were planned with the belief that the fans and audience will come in a huge number, but the tickets were not sold online, and the buyers tried to sell the tickets at 1500,2000 offline, which cost them heavily.

Because of the poor occupancy, a few shows were cancelled as well. The same thing happened with the early shows in other theaters because the buyers planned to sell the tickets offline with putting big prices which resulted in big losses for them.

Adipurush is produced on a massive scale by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Om Raut, Prasad Sutar and Rajesh Nair of Retrophiles. People Media Factory is bringing the movie to the Telugu audience. The film needs to perform exceptionally well at the box office to bring profits for all the parties involved, so it should maintain the momentum at the box office for a few days.

Aha disappointed Allu Arjun fans and audience

From past few days team of Aha Video gave continuous updates by saying that something big is happening in the combination of Allu Arjun – Sree leela and Trivikram for the Aha Video. The netizens and fans of Allu Arjun were really excited and thought that their favorite hero will act in some web series which will stream on Aha Video App. However, they were severely disappointed after the final video was released by Aha Video.

The video was nothing but an advertisement for Aha Video which just shows the already available content and series’ names being narrated in a filmy style by Allu Arjun and Sree Leela. The fans and audience are disappointed as they were strongly suggesting that for this kind of content there was no need for that kind of big publicity which was misleading the viewers in a way.

Directed by Trivikram, the video shows the different content which the Aha Video offers, including originals, films, reality shows, K-dramas, Hollywood movies, daily serials, aha kids, news, and gaming.

The video also highlights how the OTT platform enhances the individual and the family time experience, providing relatable content for Telugu households to highlight its relevance in everyday life. The purpose of the ad was to create special and memorable moments of conviviality with family and friends, but the overhyped publicity for such a normal content has severely disappointed everyone.

Hollywood film ‘The Falsh’ India box-office collections

Ezra Miller starrer DC superhero film The Flash was released to mostly mixed reviews and relatively low hype. The film collected approx Rs 4 crores on its first day in India. The collections are certainly not on par with what the makers would have expected. Adding to this, the collections from today are expected to take a bigger hit owing to Prabhas’ Adipurush release.

The film was released on Thursday and due to Adipurush’s release, it might fail to get big numbers on the weekend. Compared to other Hollywood releases in India in 2023, The Flash stands at the 6th position. Fast X had the biggest opening of Rs 12.50 crore in India followed by Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp at Rs 8.5 crore. Guardians Of The Galaxy: Volume 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, and Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse occupy no.3, 4, and 5 in the list.

The Flash has managed to surpass the opening-day collections of Transformers: Rise of The Beasts by a small margin.

A big number of trolls on Lead cast looks in Adipurush

The most awaited film, the mythological drama Adipurush of Prabhas and Om Raut is released today and the film is getting mixed response. Not only that, but the film’s director Om Raut is heavily criticized for depicting the Ramayan as per his own imagination. Except for the heroine, Kriti Sanon as Janaki almost all the characters and looks are being trolled.

Even Prabhas as Rama looked odd in many scenes on the screen. In fact the netizens shared and trolled some of the shots from the movie in which Prabhas looked out of shape. Ravana’s character, his son Indrajit, and all the other Lankan army’s looks and designs were deplorable and the audiences were confused whether the movie was about Indian mythology or any Hollywood picture made on dragons.

The situation is like the same as when the first teaser of Adipurush was released. The film unit is getting the big number of trolls on social media. Everybody who watched the movie is wondering how come how the team of Adipurush went ahead with these get ups and what confidence did they had having spent such a massive budget on the film.

Adipurush is produced on a massive scale by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Om Raut, Prasad Sutar and Rajesh Nair of Retrophiles. People Media Factory is bringing the movie to the Telugu audience. The film needs to perform exceptionally well at the box office to bring profits for all the parties involved, but it’s looking very tough seeing the response from all over.

The main drawback and biggest negative of Prabhas’s Adipurush

The most awaited film, the mythological drama Adipurush of Prabhas and Om Raut is released today and the film is getting mixed response from the audience and critics as well. The film has done massive business, and it needs positive word of mouth to get the required numbers at the box office, but much to the dismay of fans and the film unit, the film opened to negative response. The main drawback and biggest negative of the film is the over dependence on VFX by the director Om Raut.

We know that Ramayanam is all about ethics, values, powerful characters, situations with heavy emotions and Drama. But all these were missing from the film. The main drawback of Adipurush is putting only action episode in the entire second half, which left many events without being narrated. Also, the war sequences were so badly designed with poor VFX and terrible setup of Raavan and Lanka Kingdom.

It never looked like an Indian movie or a part of history. The getup and creatures looked like a cheap imitation of Hollywood’s DC, Marvel franchise. This unnecessary experiment with the world of Lanka has made the audience disconnected from the film.

Therefore, the director of the film Om Raut failed completely to establish the strong characterizations and emotions regarding the lead cast. There was a lot of scope for drama and emotions in Adipurush but Om Raut has chosen another way by completely depending on the VFX.

Adipurush Movie Review – A fresh take on the epic, might not impress everyone!

Movie: Adipurush
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan, Sunny Singh, Deva Dutta Nage
Director: Om raut
Produced By: Bhushan Kumar, Krishna Kumar
Release Date: 16th June 2023

Story: We know that the film, Adipurush is a cinematic take on the eternal saga of Ramayan. What happens when Janaki (Kriti Sanon) is kidnapped by Lankeshwara/Ravan (Saif Ali Khan) during her vanavas with Raghava (Prabhas) and how she is rescued is the main story of the movie.

Analysis: Ever since the release of Adipurush’s teaser, everyone was skeptical about how the director Om Raut has handled the task of making a movie based on the epic Ramayan. Though the new trailers and songs had a better appeal, still not so many were sure of the film’s content being on the mark. Director Om Raut tried his best to reach the expectations of the audiences, and he was successful only in parts.

Om Raut tried to give a different visual image to the age-old characters. He also changed a few incidents from the actual history. The first half of Adipurush is less about visual fantasy and focuses on the emotions of key characters. The introduction of Raghav, and the bonding between him and Janaki were well established. The abduction of Janaki and subsequent entry of Bajrang, the effective interval episode, make it an engaging affair.

However, the second half falls flat for the most of the parts. Because it is filled entirely by the war, it gives an exhaustive feel because of the repetitive action sequences which only work here and there. Only the final duel between Raghav and Lankesh had a bit of impact. The other renowned historic events were presented in an ordinary manner. For example, the Sanjeevani episode, and the Vibhishan episode, which have a strong image in the other versions of Ramayan were very flatly presented in the film.

Performances: Prabhas looked good in the title role except for a few shots and his performance was fine. Kriti Sanon made her presence felt, but she was missing for the most of the part in the second half. Saif Ali Khan was good, but his character looked one dimensional. Sunny Singh was just okay, while Deva Dutta Nage was perfect.

Plus Points:

  • First Half
  • Bajrang/Hanuman Character Scenes
  • Songs and Background Score

Minus Points:

  • Exhausting Second Half
  • Shallow Depiction of Lanka World
  • Shabby Visual Effects

Verdict:

Adipurush just falls short of the expectations because of the ineffective handling of the second half. The fairly engaging first half and a few action sequences, background score, work well for the movie. You can watch the movie for the visual experience but with fewer expectations.
