Few would have predicted the resurrection of ‘Adipurush’. In 2022, when the first teaser was released, Om Raut, the director, was mercilessly mocked. The creators had to start over after receiving online criticism. Now that the movie is coming out on June 16, 2023, pundits forecast that it would make Rs 100 crores at the box office in its opening weekend. According to recent reports, the movie has already recouped 85% of its costs. The production of ‘Adipurush’ cost Rs 500 crores. T-Series is the film's financier, and a stunning amount of money was spent on the movie's visual effects.
According to the entertainment website, ‘Adipurush’ has already recovered Rs 432 crores. From non-theatrical sources like satellite rights, music rights, internet rights, and other revenue streams, the movie starring Prabhas and Kriti Sanon has brought in Rs 247 crores. According to the portal, ‘Adipurush’ received a minimum guarantee of Rs 185 crores from the South. This means that if the film earns more than Rs. 100 or 120 crores at the box office, the producers will break even. The picture has benefited from the improved VFX. But Ajay-Atul's music has had the biggest impact.
The movie's songs are quite well-liked. The audience got chills from the Jai Shree Ram chant that ends the trailer. India as a whole has a sizable fan base for Prabhas. ‘Adipurush’ will surpass Rs 100 crores in the first three days, according to trade analysts, simply from the Hindi belt. The second ‘Adipurush’ trailer, according to those who have seen it, is bigger and better than the first. This movie seemed to have benefited greatly from the wait.
Playing the part of Janaki/Sita Maa, according to Kriti Sanon, was the most humbling experience of her life. In India, more than 8000 theatres are slated to host the film's premiere. In North India, there will be the greatest number. On YouTube, the tracks are already very popular. After the disaster that was Radhe Shyam, Prabhas needs a big hit to restore his reputation. Over 100 crores of rupees were lost on the movie. Shehzada, Kriti Sanon's most recent film, also performed poorly at the box office.
