Saif Ali Khan lands in trouble for his his controversial comments on Ravan and Sita
The Nawab of Bollywood has sparked a huge controversy in his recent interview where the Hum Tum star opened about his upcoming film Adipurush. Directed by Om Raut. The the film will feature Prabhas and Lord Ram and will show the victory of good over evil. Recently Saif opened up about his character and revealed that the director has tried to make Ravan humane in the film. She also said that the film will justify Ravan's abduction of Sita. He told Mumbai Mirror, "It’s interesting to play a demon king, less strictures in that. But we will make him humane, up the entertainment quotient, justify his abduction of Sita and the war with Ram as revenge for what was done to his sister Surpanakha by Lakshman, who cut off her nose."
Soon after, Saif's controversial statements the actor began trending on Twitter, with fans demanding the makers to replace him. #WakeUpOmRaut and #ReplaceSaifasLankesh. Netizens have demanded his removal as Lankesh in Adipurush. Prabhas fans believe that if Ravana is portrayed in this way in Om Raut’s movie, the image of the Baahubali actor as Lord Ram will be affected. Demanding the ouster of Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, one Twitter user wrote, "Moron Saif Ali Khan doesn't know that we sing the Shiva Tandav Strotram even today which is created by Ravana. But his crime of abducting Sita was never condoned. Bollywoodiya don't know 1K shades of grey." Another tweeted, "The only person bringing negativity and not at all suitable for the Role of Ravan is Saif Ali Khan !!Take an action immediately and please kick him out of the Prestigious project of our entire Indian Cinema."
Previously, Saif’s comments about Tanhaji’s historical inaccuracy landed him in a soup. Adipurush will reportedly be shot from January 2021 in one long schedule. Talking about shooting the film in 3D, a source told Mumbai Mirror, “It will mostly be shot in the studio against a chroma screen. Om and Bhushan have been talking to VFX technicians of international repute, who have worked on films like Avatar and Star Wars, to make the shooting process smooth and mount the film on a certain scale.”
