Artist claims makers of Adipurush stole his artwork to develop Prabhas’ look (Photo Credits-Poster)
Adipurush, starring Prabhas and Kriti Sanon, appears to be encountering issues one after another. Om Raut is directing the movie, in which Darling will portray Star Raghav and Kriti Sanon will play Janki. The movie also features Saif Ali Khan as the epochal antagonist Lamkesh. It is based on the Ramayana, a Hindu epic. Fan criticism of Adipurush’s subpar visual effects was intense, and now an independent artist by the name of Prateek Sanghar has charged the creators with plagiarism.
The creators just unveiled posters featuring the major actors. And he threw the poster of Devadatta Nag as Hanuman on the auspicious day of Hanuman Jayanti. He had previously gotten into difficulties and been fired by an animation studio.
Independent artist Prateek Sanghar expressed his displeasure with the Adipurush filmmakers on Facebook for allegedly taking his artwork to design the appearance of Prabhas’ character. On Reddit, the screenshot of Sanghar’s post has also been distributed.
I am an Indian concept artist, according to the post. If the epic Ramayana were ever produced, I would have done my research on the potential Lord Shri Ram incarnations. This occurred almost a year ago. Furthermore, the official concept artist for Adipurush copied my artwork mix, combined it with my related artwork, and passed it off as his own, all without my knowledge or payment. This is one of the factors that led to the project’s collapse. The people working on this have no love or passion for the project; instead, they are just utilizing cheap techniques to get it done.
On Prabhas’ birthday the previous year, TP Vijayan posted the alleged piece of art. With a side-by-side comparison of the two pieces of work, Sanghar reposted this. Check out the article shared on Bolly Blind n Gossip on Reddit here:
