Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan star in Ramayana tribute Adipurush
Adipurush is an Indian mythological film based on the religious Hindu tale of Ramayana. The film is written and directed by Om Raut, best known for his work on the period drama Tanhaji, and produced by T-Series. The upcoming film is being simultaneously shot in both Tamil and Hindi.
Ramayana is one of the most adapted Indian stories of all time, with over 49 film adaptations, 18 TV series, 25 Sanskrit scriptures, and countless regional plays based on different variations of the sacred text. However, with a budget of over 700 crores, Adipurush became the most expensive Indian film and largest scale Ramayana adaptation ever at the time of production.
The movie stars south megastar Prabhas as the legendary prince Raghava (Ram). Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon is confirmed to play the role of his devoted wife Janaki (Sita), and Bollywood A-lister Saif Ali Khan rounds the cast as the main antagonist demon king Lankesh (Ravana). The extended cast features actor Devdatta Nage as Bajrang (Lord Hanuman), Sunny Singh as the trusted younger brother Lakshmana, and Vatsal Sheth as Indrajit among others.
