Made on a budget of Rs 600 crore, Adipurush is the most-expensive Hindi film ever made, but Prabhas starrer movie proved to be one of biggest flops of 2023. An adaptation of the Ramayana ended up being a huge disappointment due to its dialogues, storytelling and VFX. And now rapper Badshah has taken an indirect jibe at Adipurush on India's Best Dancer Season 3.

  

 

 

In one of the most loved dance reality shows, a contestant of India's Best Dancer Season 3 depicted Ramayana in their dance performance. While praising the performance, Badshah took a dig at Adipurush and said, "600 crores ke bina 600 crores vali feel de di aapne (Without spending 600 crores, you have given a performance worth 600 crores)."

 

Meanwhile, Adipurush was released on June 16 and collected over Rs 125 crore in India. Besides Prabhas and Kriti Sanon, the film stars Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, Devdatta Nage as Bajrang, and Sunny Singh as Laxmana. The film was under scrutiny for hurting religious sentiments through its dialogues.

 

The film's dialogue writer, Manoj Muntashir earlier, issued an unconditional apology on social media after three weeks of film's release. He shared a note that read, "I accept people's emotions have been hurt by Adipurush. With folded hands, I extend my unconditional apologies. May Prabhu Bajrang Bali keep us united and grant us strength to serve our sacred Sanatan and our great nation."

 

Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Om Raut, Rajesh Nair, and Prasad Sutar, Adipurush also saw Vatsal Seth as Indrajit, Siddhant Karnick as Vibhishana, Sonal Chauhan as Mandodari, Krishna Kotian as Dashratha, and Trupti Todarmal as Sarama.
