TELUGU 360 (Rating: 2.75/5):
Adipurush is an epic that is portrayed in a magical way for the audience, and this will be one of the best cinematic experiences of the Ramayana on screen.
Great Andhra (Rating: 2.5/5):
Overall, “Adipurush” is a distorted retelling of the Ramayana that lacks emotion. While it provides some moments of theatrical experience and Prabhas fits well as Lord Ram, it does not succeed if you are seeking a devotional feel or an experience of a VFX-rich film.
Mirchi9 (Rating: 2.75/5):
Overall, Adipurush is a big screen spectacle that is not just repackaging visually but also sensibility-wise. It is a mass, modern version of the classic Ramayan tale. If one doesn’t mind the distortion of the original characters and some tacky VFX, try it, but don’t keep the epic characterisation in mind.
123TELUGU (Rating:3/5):
On the whole, Adipurush is a modernized version of Ramayana that majorly benefits from the performances of Prabhas, Saif Ali Khan, and Devdatte Nage. The movie has a neat first half and a below-par second half. The background score and songs come in handy, and they make it up for the substandard VFX works. Om Raut manages to infuse some good moments despite the familiar tale. The box office prospects of the movie will depend on how the family audiences will receive this updated version of the Indian epic. If you could ignore the slow-paced second half, Adipurush will be a decent watch this weekend.
Times Of India (Rating: 2/5):
This is a love story where you don’t root for the two protagonists to end up together. The film starts and ends with tears and that’s the only thing you relate to — but for all the wrong reasons.
