Om Raut on Adipurush

Director Om Raut who is known for National Award-winning Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, had dedicated the film to Ramleela artists for bringing to life the epic tale in varied forms across the country for many years. “I want to dedicate the film to each and every artist who has been a part of Ramleela. I feel the story of ‘Ramayan’ has always been there for years and it is like a bus. We have boarded this bus and we will continue for some years. Then we will get down and somebody else will board the bus. But the journey of Ramleela will continue. We will continue to see Ramleela in different ways as long as there is India,” he had said at a press event.
