'Adipurush', which stars Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan in the main characters, had a good start and kept doing well over the first weekend. But it didn't do as well during the week, which led to a big drop in money coming in. In light of this, Mukesh Khanna has questioned whether or not the box office numbers are true.

Estimates from the business world say that 'Adipurush' has made around 348.90 crores globally in just six days. Khanna is still not sure if these numbers are correct, even though they are big given how much the movie cost and how high expectations were. In an interview, the star from 'Mahabharata' said, "They are showing off the numbers. Where is the real proof that the numbers are correct? They only care about how much money the movie makes. This isn't a real income. So many people have been hurt by what they did."

He also said that the people who made 'Adipurush' should be punished for hurting religious feelings. He asked politicians and the public to send a strong message to the people who made the movie. He thinks that this kind of offensive behaviour shouldn't be allowed and that we need to work together to make sure that directors think twice before doing something similar in the future.

Khanna not only questioned how well 'Adipurush' did at the box office, but he also called the people who made it "ignorant." He talked about how famous Ram Leela performances are in villages during Dussehra. He did this to show that children know the story of Ramayan and what it means. Khanna showed his anger by saying that the directors didn't think enough about how smart and knowledgeable the audience was.

Mukesh Khanna says that the Ramayan is a textbook for Hindus. It teaches them about family, love, brotherhood, and other things. He thinks that the movie should not have taken these things for granted and should have shown respect for them.
