The
People
Of
The
Country
Have
Become
Aware
Sharing
his
reaction
on
the
teaser
of
Adipurush,
Sunil
Lahri
said,
"The
first
thing
that
I
understood
after
seeing
the
teaser
is
that
they
have
emphasized
more
on
the
look
of
the
characters.
My
first
reaction
after
seeing
the
teaser
was
not
very
positive,
but
not
negative
either.
But
let
me
tell
you
one
thing
that
in
today's
time
there
is
very
much
awareness
about
our
culture
amongst
the
people.
We
can
see
that
in
the
recent
months
so
many
films
have
been
completely
boycotted
by
the
people.
And
even
today
I
am
saying
that
if
makers
will
say
anything
against
religion
or
against
our
culture,
then
this
film
will
also
be
boycotted
because
now
the
people
of
our
country
have
become
aware
about
these
things.
They
will
not
tolerate
any
kind
of
nonsense."
Ramayan
Is
Our
Culture
Talking
about
people's
affection
for
Ramanand
Sagar's
Ramayan
even
after
35
years,
the
actor
said,
"Ramayan
is
our
culture.
Earlier
people
used
to
read
Ramayan,
then
with
time
they
started
connecting
to
Ramayan
through
TV.
Ramanand
Sagar
had
made
the
show
with
so
much
love.
Technically
may
be
the
show
was
not
at
the
level
of
today's
VFX.
But
the
level
of
emotion
was
very
high.
I
think
things
made
with
love,
definitely
reach
heart.
That's
why
people
feel
connected
to
that
show
even
after
35
years."
Serial
Sets
Record
In
Terms
Of
Viewership
He
further
said,
"When
Ramayan
was
being
re-telecast
during
the
lockdown,
we
thought
that
people
might
not
like
it
now
because
today's
generation
has
a
different
thinking.
But
the
serial
had
set
a
record
in
terms
of
viewership.
People
had
so
many
choices
at
that
time,
from
Netflix,
YouTube
to
different
platforms,
but
they
chose
to
watch
Ramayan.
From
this
you
can
understand
that
even
now
somewhere
it
touches
an
emotional
string
within
us."
Controversy
Is
Being
Created
Forcibly
Regarding
The
Teaser
Adipurush
is
constantly
being
compared
to
Ramanand
Sagar's
Ramayan
on
social
media.
Sharing
his
thoughts
this
time,
Sunil
Lahiri
said,
"I
don't
want
to
compare
Adipurush
with
Ramayan
serial.
I
didn't
find
anything
that
would
cause
so
much
controversy.
Maybe
when
the
trailer
or
dialogue
promo
will
release
then
everyone
will
really
understand
what
it
is
about.
Right
now
no
one
knows
what
it
is,
just
forcibly,
controversy
is
being
created
about
it.
They
too
are
getting
free
publicity
from
it."
Technology
Doesn't
Make
Anything
Better
Sunil
Lahri
says
that
the
directors
who
are
making
a
film
on
mythology
should
take
care
not
to
add
any
such
thing
which
is
wrong
towards
their
own
culture
or
their
own
country.
He
said,
"technology
doesn't
make
anything
better
and
it
doesn't
guarantee
success
either.
It's
important
to
have
emotions.
Today,
for
any
maker
who
is
making
a
film
on
Ramayan
or
Mahabharat,
it
is
most
important
for
them
to
focus
on
the
emotions.
Our
culture
runs
on
emotions.
We
still
believe
in
unity
and
respect
each
other.
Also
nowadays
the
outlook
of
people
has
changed
a
lot.
And
this
change
is
visible
on
social
media."
Making
Of
Ramayana
Can
Be
Modern,
But
Not
The
Approach
Adipurush
director
Om
Raut
has
said
that
he
wants
to
connect
youth
and
children
with
Ramayan
through
this
film,
so
he
has
taken
a
different
approach.
Talking
on
this,
Sunil
says,
"I
think
the
making
of
Ramayan
can
be
modern,
but
not
the
approach.
The
image
of
a
character
should
not
be
tampered.
Yes,
we
don't
have
any
reference
that
how
Shri
Ram
used
to
look
and
how
Ravan
used
to
look,
but
a
belief
is
there
that
Ram
would
have
been
gentle,
with
a
smile
on
his
face
and
Lakshman
would
have
been
a
little
aggressive
as
Rama
is
the
incarnation
of
Vishnu
and
Lakshman
is
the
incarnation
of
Sheshnag."
Ajay
Devgn
Can
Become
Ram,
Hrithik
Is
Perfect
For
Lakshman
Reacting
on
who
among
today's
actors
fits
into
the
characters
of
Ramayan,
he
said,
"If
you
ignore
the
age
factor,
I
think
Ajay
Devgn
fits
into
the
character
of
Ram.
He
has
that
simplicity
in
him.
He
looks
strong
and
at
the
same
time
he
speaks
with
his
eyes.
For
Lakshman,
I
find
Hrithik
Roshan
perfect
from
every
angle.
And
in
the
character
of
Raavan,
I
think
Sonu
Sood
can
look
good.
His
personality
is
also
very
strong."
