Storyline:
The pre-Lord Ram’s (Prabhas) Vanvas phase is briefly recapped before we jump right into what appears to be a Kingdom Of The North-inspired setup from Game Of Thrones, where Lankesh “Ravana” (Saif Ali Khan) is receiving his boon from his great-grandfather Lord Brahma. Shurpanakha, the sister of Lankesh, tries to ask Lord Rama to wed her even though she is already married to Sita (Kriti Sanon), and as a result, loses her nose to him.
This ignites the conflict between the two groups, prompting Lankesh to kidnap Sita while posing as a Sadhu (Saint), and for Raghav to attack him in a rage that isn’t typically associated with him. In order to free Janaki from Ravana’s grip, Lord Rama enlists the aid of Sugreev, Lord Hanuman (Devdatta Nage), and his brother Lakshman (Sunny Singh). As a result, he is dubbed the Prince of Ayodhya and the rightful ruler of his people.
Adipurush review:
Lord Rama’s character is typically defined as having charm, composure, and effervescence, which Prabhas does so with little effort. How could anyone even accept that he is portraying one of Lord Vishnu’s most significant avatars while constantly appearing worn out and disoriented? We have all seen this figure while growing up, and if not, we will all tell many subsequent generations about him. It is not a new character for whom one may give some leeway.
This ambitious but resolute rendition of an epic has Saif Ali Khan’s formidable Ravan as the main character who radiates vitality. While Prabhas (voiced masterfully by Sharad Kelkar) retains a majestic presence as Ram, Saif steals the show with his sly demeanour and significant height gain. Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior was evidence of his prowess in portraying sinister and insane characters, and in this film, he sets the bar even higher. The songs by Ajay-Atul and the music and background score by Sanchit and Ankit Balhara give Saif’s enormous Ravan performance a fantastic boost. Saif Ali Khan owns Adipurush, and Raut is successful in erecting the figure on a grand scale.
For our final word, Bollywood Hush would suggest this is a one-time watch film. So, this was all about the Adipurush review. Bollywood Hush would rate the film 2.5 stars out of 5. Click here to read The Flash review now.
