After
the
massive
success
of
Ajay
Devgn's
historical
film
Tanhaji:
The
Unsung
Warrior,
director
Om
Raut's
next
big
outing
is
the
mythological
film
Adipurush
which
features
Prabhas,
Saif
Ali
Khan,
Kriti
Sanon
and
Sunny
Singh
in
pivotal
roles.
The
film
has
been
the
talk
of
the
town
ever
since
it
was
announced
as
the
makers
have
managed
to
pull
off
a
casting
coup
with
his
ambitious
project.
Adipurush
has
Prabhas
essaying
the
role
of
Ram
who
is
pitted
opposite
Saif
Ali
Khan's
character
Lankesh.
After
months
of
shooting
at
length,
Saif
recently
wrapped
up
shooting
for
his
portions
in
the
film.
Director
Om
Raut
took
to
his
Twitter
handle
to
share
this
happy
news
and
even
posted
a
few
pictures
from
the
wrap
up
party.
He
captioned
them
as,
"It's
a
film
wrap
for
Lankesh!!!
Had
so
much
fun
shooting
with
you
SAK!!!"
Meanwhile
in
a
recent
interaction
with
an
entertainment
portal,
Saif
spoke
at
length
about
stepping
into
the
mythological
genre
for
the
first
time
with
Adipurush
and
his
experience
of
working
with
Prabhas.
The
actor
said
that
it
was
surreal
to
play
the
main
antagonist
in
this
film
and
was
all
praise
for
his
co-star
Prabhas.
He
went
on
to
say
that
it
was
overwhelming
working
with
the
Baahubali
star.
Bollywood
Hungama
quoted
him
as
saying,
"Well,
it's
completely
insane
what
is
going
to
happen.
I
mean,
first
of
all,
it
is
quite
surreal
to
be
a
part
of
such
a
great
film
and
play
the
antagonist
Ravana
in
the
Ramayana.
Secondly,
it
is
great
working
with
Prabhas.
It's
just
mental
working
with
him,
I
keep
looking
at
him
and
he
looks
like
Bahubali
and
he
looks
different
while
playing
Ram.
It's
quite
overwhelming
working
with
him.
He
is
also
a
very
fun
person
and
we
have
quite
a
big
laugh
while
doing
various
violent
and
action
sequences.
So,
that's
always
a
big
strength
and
he
is
thoroughly
a
gentleman
and
a
very
nice
person."
He
continued,
"The
fact
is
you're
are
doing
some
really
famous
scenes
which
have
been
already
watched
by
millions
and
are
even
very
famous
in
Indian
literature.
So,
I
must
say
to
actually
get
the
chance
to
enact
those
scenes
is
very
surreal.
We've
worked
really
hard
on
the
look
and
the
kind
of
visuals
that
the
director
has
come
up
with
is
one
of
a
kind.
There
are
some
scenes
in
the
film
which
are
never
seen
before
on
our
screens.
It
is
just
a
real
honour
to
be
a
part
of
such
a
great
project.
I
think
the
audience
will
love
the
film."
Adipurush
based
on
the
Hindu
epic
Ramayana,
is
touted
to
be
one
of
the
most
expensive
films
ever
made
and
will
be
releasing
in
Hindi,
Telugu,
Tamil,
Kannada
and
Malayalam.
The
magnum
opus
is
slated
to
hit
the
big
screens
on
August
11,
2022.
