Om Raut-directed 'Adipurush' was one of the most anticipated film of the year. Touted to be a retelling of the Ramayana, the film stars Prabhas as Lord Ram, Kriti Sanon as Sita, Sunny Singh as Laxman, and Saif Ali Khan as Raavan. However, the film opened to largely negative reviews with fans taking to social media to express disappointment in the quality of the film. The VFX, storytelling and dialogues were bashed by the audience.

Actors who played pivotal roles in Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan have also spoken against the film. Now, actress Dipika Chikhlia who played Sita in the TV soap, has said that Ramayan is not meant for entertainment.
