Adipurush HT review out
Take a bit of Avengers and Lord of The Rings, add a pinch of Game of Thrones, and top it up with Temple Run — and Adipurush is served. Agreed it's no easy feat to recreate an epic tale, but with all the research and material at hand — through Tulsidas' Ramcharitmanas and Valmiki's Ramayana — if this is director Om Raut's best take on the contemporary Ramayana, we need to go back and revisit the original in all its glory, and restore our sanity.
