Manoj Muntashir reacts to criticism on the dialogue, ‘Jalegi tere baap ki’ from Adipurush, says he’s not the first one to write this | Hindi Movie News – Times of India

‘Adipurush‘ has done very well at the box office on its opening day but the film has got a lot of criticism for its dialogues, written by Manoj Muntashir. The audience has been talking about one dialogue from the film said by Hanuman ji, played by Devdatta Nage. He says the dialogue, “Kapda tere baap ka, aag tere baap ki, tel tere baap ka, jalegi bhi teri baap ki.” The film sees Saif Ali Khan playing Lankesh with Prabhas playing Raghav and Kriti Sanon as Janaki.
But dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir has reacted to the criticism in an interview. The dialogue writer has said that it is not an error but it’s a very meticulous thought process that has gone into writing the dialogues for Bajrang Bali and all the characters. Manoj added that if there are multiple characters in the film then all of them can’t speak the same language, so there has to be a diversion.
Muntashir further added that when grandmothers used to narrate stories from Ramayana to them during childhood, they would recite such dialogues only. He shared that many narrators also would use the same language and he isn’t the first one to write this dialogue. The film has also faced criticism for its poor VFX, however fans of Prabhas have enjoyed watching the movie.
The film has released in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Tamil.
