Adipurush controversy: Ramayan actor Sunil Lahiri says characters of Om Raut’s film are ‘ajeeb’

New Delhi: Sunil Lahri, who played Lakshman in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayana television adaption, has weighed in on the recently released teaser for Adipurush. The movie is a CGI-heavy remake of the mythical epic. Its trailer has received harsh criticism for its bad graphics and unnatural character designs.

Sunil Lahri, unlike most others, including his Ramayan co-star Dipika Chikhlia, believes that people should wait to see the complete film, or at least the trailer, before giving judgement. He also stated that various nations all over the world have their own depictions of Hindu gods.

He told DNA, “After watching the teaser, at present, my views are neutral. It’s neither entirely positive, nor it’s totally negative. They have just introduced the characters and their personalities. So till now, they haven’t conveyed anything that really irked me. I think ki zabadasti ki controversy create ki ja rahi hai… to popularise the film.”
