![]() ![]() However, that better be the case with the Rs600 crore budget. ![]() While the emotional wavelength of the movie was amiss in most parts, what we can’t take away from the visual spectacle that the film offers, with gigantic structures and breathtaking visuals. Lacking depth and coming across as borderline gimmicky, the dialogues in the film are definitely the weak link, as writer Manoj Muntashir endeavours to modernise the lingo, perhaps to make it more palatable for the metro audience.Turning into a misplaced effort, with Hanuman's character throwing out phrases like, " Tel tere baap ka, aag bhi tere baap ki aur jalegi bhi tere baap ki’," the dialogues fail to make an impact. Other than Saif Ali Khan, who is mostly a delight to watch as Lankesh (barring the extra talking heads), one of the best takeaways of the movie has to be Maharashtrian actor Devadatta Nage, playing Hanuman, whose larger-than-life, CGI-infused structure adds to the fortitude in the film. On another note, what wasn’t achieved by dialogue and delivery was promised through melodious music and songs such as 'Ram Siya Ram', composed by Ajay-Atul and Sachet–Parampara, which is the heart of Adipurush. However, the movie, already hitting the patience-testing 3-hour mark, still somehow manages to feel extremely slow in places.

It’s strange because when one thinks of potentially choosing a different cast for the movie, no other names come to mind. Sunny Singh, from Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety fame, plays the role of Sesh, Raghava’s younger brother, and though, has very little to portray in terms of emotional acumen, shines bright in the action sequences against Indrajit in a stellar showcase by Vatsal Seth. While Prabhas fits the requirement of exuding a God-like demeanour playing the role of Lord Rama with his magnanimous persona, the actor quickly falls into the trap of a one-note performance, which may well be the result of a limiting script.Īlso true for the rest of the cast, it almost seemed like the actors came in to give it their best shot but weren’t given any breathing space to express any real emotion. Kriti Sanon, while looking the part completely as Raghava’s idyllic wife, has very little to play with when it comes to showing off her acting chops. ![]()
