Days after uproar, the objectionable dialogues in the Prabhas-Kriti Sanon film Adipurush have been altered and the new edited version of the movie is now being screened in theatres, T-Series has confirmed.
Om Raut’s directorial received major backlash and criticism from various quarters for its "wrongful depiction" of Indian epic ‘Ramayana’. The film, which is made on a budget of Rs 500 crore, has received flak for its direction, VFX, screenplay, and specially for dialogues penned by lyricist-writer Manoj Muntashir.

1. ‘Tu andar kaise ghusa… tu jaanta bhi hai kaun hoon main’ has been replaced by ‘Tum andar kaise ghuse… tum jaante bhi ho kaun hoon main’
2. ‘Kapda tere baap ka… toh jalegi bhi tere baap ki’ has been revised to ‘Kapda teri Lanka ka… toh jalegi bhi teri Lanka’
3. ‘Jo hamari behano… unki Lanka laga denge’ has been replaced by ‘Jo hamari behano… unki Lanka mein aag laga denge’
4. ‘Mere ek sapole ne tumhare iss sheshnaag ko lamba kar diya… bhara pada hai’ has been modified to ‘Mere ek sapole ne tumhare iss sheshnaag ko samapt kar diya… bhara pada hai’
