Adipurush is turning out to be a feather in the hat for Prabhas, who yet again hit the 100-crore mark on opening day which is an incredible feat. The Om Raut-directed film also starring Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan continues to sell tickets like hotcakes despite the reviews turning out to be mixed for the most part. The makers of Adipurush and writer Manoj Muntashir Shukla have also made the decision to revise the dialogue in the Hindi version after controversy erupted over a few lines spoken by Devdatta Nage, the actor playing Bajrang / Lord Hanuman, as they hurt religious sentiments. "Team Adipurush in respect of Public Opinion, Revamps Dialogues for a Unifying Film Experience valuing the input of the public and the audience. The dialogues are being modified in consultation & advice of CBFC (sic)", T-Series said in its latest statement.

Prabhas' Adipurush has now surpassed the collections of the first two days of Shah Rukh Khan's blockbuster Pathaan released earlier this year, which grossed around Rs 219 crores at the global box office. Set nearly 7,000 years ago, Adipurush has Prabhas playing the role of Raghava based on Lord Rama and sees Kriti Sanon as Janaki also known as Sita, while Saif Ali Khan appears as Lankesh otherwise known as Ravana.
