Director Om Raut, who is being brutally trolled for his latest release ‘Adipurush’, is rooting for ‘Ramayana’ movie, which is being helmed by Nitesh Tiwari with Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor in lead roles.
In an interview with India Today, Om Raut said that Nitesh is a good filmmaker, and the more films that are made on Ramayana, the better.
He said, ‘Nitesh is a great director and a good friend of mine. I have seen his work. I have seen Dangal. It's one of the finest films that our nation has made. Everything about the film - Aamir (Khan) sir, actors, Nitesh sir's writings and his direction - I think that's phenomenal. I am looking forward to the film like every Ram bhakt.
As many films we make on Ramayana, Prabhu Shri Ram, and everything on Rama, I think we will all root for that film or any other film that anybody is making. It's very important for us, it's the greatest history of our country, it's very important. We have to tell it as many times as we can, and as many people as possible should see the film.’
'Adipurush’, based on the Hindu epic Ramayana, stars Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan. The film has earned ₹240 crore at the worldwide box office in two days, according to the makers.
'Adipurush continues to mesmerise audiences worldwide, surpassing expectations with a bumper opening of ₹140 CR on Day 1, it adds ₹100 CR on Day 2, taking the total collection to a phenomenal ₹240 CR in just two days! Jai Shri Ram,’ T-Series said in a statement posted on its official Twitter page.
