Adipurush: Shaktimaan Actor Mukesh Khanna SLAMS Makers: Calls Film 'Biggest Joke Of The Century' With 'Disrespectful Dialogues' And 'Sleep-Inducing Screenplay'! (Details Inside)

Mukesh Khanna, who is best known for playing Bheeshma in the famous TV show Mahabharat, has recently said bad things about the latest movie ‘Adipurush’, its director Om Raut, and its writer Manoj Muntashir. Even though it has big names like Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan, and Sunny Singh in it and is directed by Om Raut, Adipurush has been getting bad reviews lately. At first, Muntashir said that it was based on the epic Ramayana, but he later said that it was more inspired by the story than a straight copy. The movie is still getting bad reviews, and now Mukesh Khanna has joined the crowd of people who don't like it.

The famous star talked about ‘Adipurush’ on Instagram, where he called it "the biggest joke of the century." He went on to say that the movie was a disrespectful take on the holy book Valmiki Ramayana and an insult to it. Mukesh wondered who gave the filmmakers permission to make such a risky movie. He also worried if the censor board would forgive them or if people would turn down this expensive movie. He ended by saying that he didn't know what would happen.

Mukesh Khanna said worse things about Om Raut in a YouTube video. He said that he hadn't read the Ramayana before starting the job. He also criticised Manoj Muntashir's script, which he said was boring and made him want to go to sleep, and the quality of the dialogues. Mukesh also criticised Prabhas for just showing off his body as Lord Ram, and he criticised Saif Ali Khan for trying to make Ravan funny. He was worried that Saif Ali Khan's comments, which he called "Nawab," could cause trouble in his society.
