After a long wait, the teaser of the film was finally grandly released on October 2 at Ayodhya among fans and media. Indeed it was a spectacular event and since then, everyone has been going gaga over the teaser. The latest reports suggested that Om Raut’s film seems to have landed itself in trouble.

Ayodhya priests demand a ban on Adipurush’s release

Adipurush’s teaser starring Saif Ali Khan, Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Sunny Singh has been also receiving a lot of criticism. According to the latest reports in The Times Of India, on Wednesday, Satyendra Das, the chief priest of the Ram temple in Ayodhya reportedly demanded a ban on the release of this film. The reason they stated behind this was that the film allegedly misrepresented Lord Ram, Hanuman, and Ravana. According to him, the film did not depict Lord Rama and Hanuman as they are described in the epic and hence violates their dignity.

The reports further stated that Brij Bhushan Singh, a BJP MP, reportedly claimed that such accusations are being generated on purpose. He also added that it is not illegal to make a movie and according to him deliberately stirring up controversy to grab attention is not appropriate.
