Mukesh Khanna, a famous actor who starred in the first 'Mahabharat' series, doesn't like the new movie 'Adipurush.' In an interview, Khanna said that the movie messed up the Hindu epic and asked the people and lawmakers to send a strong message to make sure that this doesn't happen again.

'Adipurush' has been getting a lot of negative feedback on social media, with critics saying that its current version is like 'Game of Thrones' and Marvel. The film, which stars Prabhas, is expected to make around Rs 350 crores, but Khanna says that this is not the best way to measure success. He thinks that the movie hurt the feelings of a lot of people and questions whether the reported numbers are true.

Khanna says that India is a Hindu Rashtra (country) and that mistakes like those in 'Adipurush' shouldn't happen again. He wants the public and politicians to send a strong message to the film's team, stressing that religious feelings shouldn't be played with. Even though Hinduism is flexible, Khanna thinks the movie goes too far and wants everyone to work together to teach the producers a lesson. He thinks that if these kinds of offensive things are called out, other directors will think twice before doing the same thing.

The star says that because every child in India knows the story of Ramayan, it should be told in a certain way. He talks about the Ram Leela plays that are put on every year during Dussehra. Children watch the plays and learn about the story of Ramayana and the ideals it shows. Khanna thinks it is rude for the people who made 'Adipurush' to assume that people are not smart or knowledgeable. He says that the Ramayan is a guide for Hindus on how to live with their families, with ideals like commitment, loyalty, and brotherhood being emphasised. He also doesn't like that Hiranya Kashyap is in the story and calls it a lie.

In short, Mukesh Khanna doesn't like the movie 'Adipurush' and criticises how it supposedly changes the Hindu tale 'The Ramayana'. He thinks that these kinds of actions hurt religious feelings and want the people and the government to work together to stop this from happening again. They say that the Ramayan has important cultural and moral meanings and that it should be told with respect and truth.
