Adipurush Team Must ‘Apologise To The Nation’ For The Pedestrian Dialogues, Says Priyanka Chaturvedi

On Saturday, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Priyanka Chaturvedi raised her voice and demanded an apology for the pedestrian dialogues used in the mythological film based on the epic Ramayana.

Chaturvedi tweeted, “The dialogue writer of Adipurush @manojmuntashir, as well as the director, should apologize to the nation for the pedestrian dialogues written for the movie, especially for Lord Hanuman”.

The film is been trolled and criticised constantly for its dialogues and depiction of the mythological figures in it. In a scene where Ravana’s son sets Hanuman’s tail on fire, the devotee of Rama says a dialogue  “Kapda tere baap ka. Tel tere baap ka. Aag bhi tere baap ki. Toh jalegi bhi tere baap ki.”

In another scene, a character says, “Jo humari behno ko haath lagaayenge, unki lanka laga denge.”

Reacting to these dialogues, Chaturvedi wrote, “ “It hurts every Indian’s sensibilities to see the kind of language being attributed to our revered gods in the name of entertainment.”

She also added, “You make a movie on Maryada Purushottam Ram and cross all boundaries of Maryada for quick box office success is unacceptable.”

Hindu Sena files a petition in HC
