Later, Tollywood producer Abhishek Agarwal announced to donate 10,000 tickets of Adipurush. The tickets would be given to government schools, orphanages and old age homes across Telangana.
Adipurush courted controversy, including boycott calls, over the depiction of Hindu deities and the buzz cut sported by Saif Ali Khan’s Lankesh when the teaser released in October last year. Adipurush was initially set to arrive in cinema halls on August 11, 2022, but the release date was pushed to January 12,2023. In a recent interview with PTI, Raut said they have utilised the additional time to improve the VFX of the film.
