Massive uproar against ‘Adipurush’ in the country. Hindu orgs demand a ban.

Mumbai: Hindutva Outfit Creates Ruckus, Stops Adipurush Screening In Nallasopara Theatre; Video Viral.

The film has resulted in a massive uproar in the country, owing to its substandard street-style dialogues and below-par visual effects….. Now, it is clear why the mysterious and cunning connectivity of Joshi with the anti-Hindu lobbies in the film industry get recurring impetus for making such films to defame the Sanatana Dharma and demoralize the Hindus in the name of liberty of expression. Hindu organizations now demand the immediate removal of Joshi Prasoon Joshi from the  Chair of CBFC. 

Sumit Shinde | HENB | Mumbai | June 19, 2023:: A Mumbai-based Hindutva outfit, named Rashtra Pratham, barged into a cinema hall in the city’s Nallasopara suburb on Sunday night and stopped a screening of Om Raut’s ‘Adipurush’ amid the raging controversies surrounding the film. The film was released in theatres on June 16 and it has been facing the public ire for allegedly insulting the Hindu epic, Ramayana.

‘Adipurush’ is a retelling of the Ramayana by Om Raut, starring Prabhas as Lord Ram, Kriti Sanon as Sita, Saif Ali Khan as Ravan, and Devdatta Nage as Lord Hanuman.

The film has resulted in a massive uproar in the country, owing to its substandard street-style dialogues and below-par visual effects.

Earlier, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti, Hindu Existence Forum, and other Hindu organizations demanded a ban on the film after releasing its objectionable teaser in October 2022. Then the Hindu organizations vehemently objected to the sleeveless dresses of Mother Sita, Lord Hanuman shown as a Muslim with a beard but without a mustache, and the depiction of Ravana as an Islamic Terrorist.

Then, a Hindu lawyer Raj Gaurav also wanted a stay on the release of the film Adipurush in a Delhi court. But, nothing yielded any fruitful results.

But, it is unfortunate that a BJP man Prasoon Joshi, the Chair of Central Board Film Certification (CBFC) has cleared such an objectionable film without any cut at all. Now, it is clear why the mysterious and cunning connectivity of Joshi with the anti-Hindu lobbies in the film industry get recurring impetus for making such films to defame the Sanatana Dharma and demoralize the Hindus in the name of liberty of expression. Hindu organizations now demand the immediate removal of Joshi Prasoon Joshi from the  Chair of CBFC.

The street-style slang dialogues from Lord Hanuman as put in the film just intolerable and Prsoon Joshi, the Film producer, Director, and dialogue maker must be punished or to be handed over to the public without delay.

Hindu group creates ruckus at Mumbai theatre

The incident took place in a theatre housed inside the Capital Mall of Nallasopara. Around 8 pm, a bunch of members of the Rashtra Pratham group barged inside the theatre and raised slogans against the film and its makers.

The ruckus eventually forced the theatre owners and organisers to stop the screening of the film.

A video of the incident has now gone viral on the internet in which the members can be seen getting into a heated argument with the audience inside the theatre and the mall’s management.

Adipurush makers receive death threats

Meanwhile, director Om Raut and writer Manoj Muntashir are right in the eye of the storm and they have been receiving death threats from several parts of the country.

In Chhattisgarh, effigies of Raut and Muntashir were hanged by a tree and the chief minister of the state, Bhupesh Baghel, has also stated that the film will be banned in the state if the people demand so.

Not just that, but the Kshatriya Karni Sena also threatened to kill Raut. “We will kill the director, haath mein aaya toh koot denge, we are planning to form a team in Mumbai and tell them to get hold of weapons to find him and kill him,” Dr Raj Shekhawat, National President of Kshatriya Karni Sena, said.

The tantamount evil doings of CBFC Chair Prasoon Joshi can find severe outbursts in one fine morning.
