Amid the backlash, the film’s dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir said on Sunday said that they would “revise some of the dialogues” and the changes will be incorporated in the movie in a week.
Ban on Adipurush
Meanwhile, a trade organisation AICWA has written a letter to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and demanded a ban on Adipurush. The film is a “complete disaster of our faith in Shri Ram and Ramayan”, stated the All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA).
