"With folded hands, I extend my unconditional apology," wrote Manoj Muntashir Shukla
Adipurush dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir Shukla extended his "unconditional apology" for hurting people's emotions. The mythological epic film, starring Prabhas, directed by Om Raut, was criticised heavily for its pedestrian language upon its release last month. The film's team, including Shukla, announced days later that they have decided to "revise some of the dialogues". On Saturday, the dialogue writer said he accepts that Adipurush has hurt people's sentiments.
"I accept that people's emotions have been hurt by Adipurush. With folded hands, I extend my unconditional apology," Shukla, who has penned the Hindi dialogues and songs of the retelling of the Ramayana, wrote on Twitter.
"May Prabhu Bajrang Bali keep us united and grant us strength to serve our sacred Sanatan and our great nation. #Adipurush" he added.
