Ever since it was announced that the first look of Young Rebel Star Prabhas’s upcoming film, Adipurush, would be released on October 2nd, there has been a lot of buzz and hype surrounding the first look. Prabhas will be seen as Lord Rama in the film, while Kriti Sanon will be seen as Goddess Sita, and Saif Ali Khan will be seen as Ravana.
Adipurush is directed by Om Raut, and marks Prabhas’s official Bollywood debut. With the first look set to be released in Ayodhya, the hype has only further increased. One of the main reasons for so much hype is that Prabhas will be seen as Lord Rama in the film, which features massive visual effects and motion capture technology. Prabhas will be the first mainstream Lord Rama in Indian Cinema.
While the hype is a good thing, it also could turn out to be counterproductive for the film, as too much hype can leave audiences disappointed with what they end up getting in the end.
