Om Raut Breaks Silence on Adipurush Trolls. Once glorified for the blockbuster Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, Om Raut was caught in a storm after the unfortunate release of Adipurush. Heavily marketed as a modern retelling of the Ramayana, it was downright murder. Criticism arose for the dialogues and visual effects, and creative decisions were questioned.
For weeks, the filmmaker kept himself away from the media frenzy surrounding the film. Adipurush had already become the talk of the town for the umpteenth time. When he finally spoke of the toll taken upon him by all the criticism. He was candid enough to say that the negativity geared towards his film was hard to swallow after spending quite some years of hard work on bringing the epic tale to life. With Adipurush being subjected to even harsher criticisms, he was nonetheless grateful to those who saw good intentions behind the film, even if they couldn’t appreciate its execution.
The Way Forward
Instead of carrying the burden of blame and abuses, Om Raut sees Adipurush’ failure as a learning experience. He asserted that obstacles are elements of a creative journey and that mistakes often provide the building blocks for a stronger comeback. Candidly acknowledging the trolls and the impact they had on him, he rather seems determined to rise above the clamor.
A Fresh Start with Inspector Jende
Well, Om Raut is busy working on his new project, Netflix’s Inspector Jende. This new series is his resurrection coming back, and the early buzz is that it will be a gripping thriller. With this kind of global backing, it will enable him to reach out to the world audience. Industry insiders believe he may have here a chance to massively shift the paradigm in his favor once again and re-establish his reputation as a dynamic storyteller.
