The 'Adipurush' crew has come under fire for portions of the dialogue in the movie, especially the lines created for Lord Hanuman's persona. Manoj Muntashir Shukla, the show's writer and lyricist, previously discussed his views, claiming that the dialogue was written that way on purpose. However, he has since chosen to rewrite the dialogue because, in his opinion, it was hurting the audience.

Manoj said in a tweet that he received harassment online due to certain of the movie's dialogues. He claimed No amount of justification could alter people's perspectives. As a result, some of the dialogue in the movie will be changed, and the new versions will start showing up in prints this week.
Take A Look:-
'Adipurush's dialogue was scrutinised after the movie's premiere because some people deemed some of the phrases to be derogatory. When Devdatta Nage, who played Lord Hanuman, stated, "Kapda tere baap ka, aag tere baap ki.....," it garnered criticism. Manoj Muntashir, the film's dialogue writer, claimed that people were only highlighting a few strange phrases and not the deeper, more impactful sentences delivered by Prabhas as Raghava or Kriti Sanon as Janaki.
About the particular dialogue for Lord Hanuman's character, the writer said, “Yeh dialogue iss desh ke bade bade sant, bade bade katha vachak aisi hi bolte hai jaise maine likha hai (Oral retellings and priests narrate the scene in the same way I have written). I am not the first one to write this dialogue, it's already there."
