Watch: Massive Outrage Compels Adipurush Makers To Alter Bajrangbali's TAPORI Dialogue 'Jalegi Tere Baap Ki'
Adipursuh Dialogues: Bollywood director Om Raut and writer Manoj Muntashir faced intense backlash soon after the release of their highly anticipated film Adipurush, based on the mythological story of the Ramayana.
Unfortunately, the movie fell short of expectations, receiving criticism for various aspects such as costume design, prosthetics, VFX, CGI, and even the dialogue delivery. Certain dialogues in the film stirred controversy and caused an uproar among the audience.
In response to the backlash, the filmmakers issued a statement assuring that they would modify the dialogues that had offended religious sentiments. A video showcasing the revised dialogues has now gone viral on social media.
Adipurush's makers alter the film's tapori dialogues
As promised, after the massive outrage, the Adipurush makers have altered certain dialogues in the movie that were criticised as being in 'tapori language'. The film's dialogues and VFX have received severe flak online.
One of the contentious dialogues was Lord Hanuman telling Indrajeet 'jalegi tere baap ki' has been changed. A video that was shared on Twitter by a viewer showed the word "baap" being replaced by "Lanka".
Earlier, Hanuman says, "Kapda tere baap ka, tel tere baap ka, aag bhi tere baap ki, aur jalegi bhi tere baap ki." The altered dialogue in the new print sounds like, "Kapda teri Lanka ka, tel teri Lanka ka, aag bhi teri Lanka ki, aur jalegi bhi teri Lanka hi."
Some other problematic dialogues have also been changed. The "jo humari behno ko haath lagayenge hum unki Lanka laga denge" has been changed to "hum unki Lanka mein aag laga denge."
Another dialogue that was slammed, "Mera ek sapole ne tumhare sheshnaag ko lamba kar diya", has been changed to, "Mere ek sapole ne tumhare iss sheshnaag ko samapt kar diya... bhara pada hai."

Dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir gives clarification
In an interview with Republic World, Adipuruh's dialogue writer, Manoj Muntashir, gave a clarification, saying that these were not errors but thoughtfully written dialogues for Banjragbali and other characters in the film.
"We have made it simple because we have to understand one thing: if there are multiple characters in a film, all cannot speak the same language. There has to be a kind of diversion, a kind of division," he had said.
