As Adipusuh released on Netflix, this highly anticipated movie with a staggering budget of 500 Crores, left the audiences disappointed and disheartened when it hit the theatres. As the film failed to meet the high expectations set by its grand scale and the legendary story of Ramayana, a demand for a boycott of Adipurush gained significant traction among the audience. The reasons driving this call for a boycott were diverse, reflecting the varied concerns and grievances of the viewers. Here are some of them:
1. Ravaan Loook
Seriously @omraut when did Ravan had double-decker heads & Mu$lim looking faces without Vibhuti & Tilak?

What abt the bland colours? Has it happened only during night time?
Can u name the #Ramayana you referred or took inspiration from in making #Adipurush ?#BoycottAdipurush pic.twitter.com/TK1nc5y4F1

3. Sita ji & Ram’s appearance
Chutiya Bollywood have sexualised The Ramayana, when it was Satya Yuga. Sri Ram looks more like Justus Christ witha moustache and Roman attire. Look at the way they have dressed Maa Sita.

5. When did that happen?
Was this movie #Adipurush shot inside a dark room with a Chinese mobile camera? ₹600 they say has been spent, was it for laundering!!

Btw, which version of #Ramayan states that Maa Sita was brought to the battlefield?#AdipurushReview #BoycottAdipurush #AdipurushDisaster pic.twitter.com/3V4lRFGSfG
7. Misrepresentations in the movies
Entire Ramayana has been misrepresented in this movie. All Sanatani people together boycott this movie.

9. Makers got appearances & looks wrong
With due respect, here you are slightly wrong, sir.

The boycott is not because, to stop producers to dare to make hindu theme based movies.
In the movie, Hanuman Ji is portrayed as a MULLA. Prabhu Shri Ram is wearing leather shoes. Do u think it’s legitimate?#BoycottAdipurush pic.twitter.com/vOwA3AOWOh
10. Ravan’s Son Indrajit’s Look

11. Hanumanji’s Look
Hanuman Ji ko Shoaib Jamai ka roop kyun diya. हमारे हनुमान मुल्ला नहीं दिखते। उनका रूप तो मनमोहक है। #BoycottAdipurush pic.twitter.com/8g32wrnxe4
