Adipurush, the most expensive Indian film to date, starring Prabhas in the lead role, has been met with a series of setbacks. Directed by Om Raut, the film was released to great anticipation, but ultimately disappointed audiences.

Adipurush, a film known for its grand scale and visual effects, has been criticized for its subpar VFX, lack of authenticity, and monotonous screenplay. Despite the initial hype, the film struggled to make a lasting impression on viewers.

The high-definition (HD) version of Adipurush has been leaked online, even before its official release on an over-the-top (OTT) platform. This unfortunate leak has further compounded the film’s woes by undermining its theatrical performance and diminishing the potential audience for the upcoming OTT release.

The leak has led to a decline in footfall at theaters, as many viewers have chosen to watch the film online for free. It has also damaged the film’s reputation, as many viewers have expressed disappointment with the quality of the film’s VFX and other technical aspects. Thus one can find it likely to have a negative impact on the film’s box office collection, as it will reduce the number of people who are willing to pay to see the film in theaters.

The leak is also likely to have a negative impact on the film’s streaming prospects, as many viewers who would have otherwise watched the film on an OTT platform may now choose to watch the pirated version instead. It could be even said as a major setback for the makers of Adipurush, as it has the potential to significantly damage the film’s commercial prospects.
