Animation studio claims ‘Adipurush’ poster is a copy: ‘T- Series should mention the original creator’

Prabhas starrer ‘Adipurush’ has been making headlines ever since the release of its teaser. The Om Raut-directorial has now sparked yet another controversy. Vaanar Sena Studios has compared ‘Adipurush’ poster, featuring Prabhas as Raghava, with its own Shiva poster and alleged that it is a copy of its work. The animation studio wrote that the producers must at least credit them.

They reportedly re-shared a collage of ‘Adipurush’ poster and a 'Lord Shiva still' on Instagram stories, which read, ‘Looks like makers inspired Adipurush first look poster from Lord Shiva still.’

Vaanar Sena Studios captioned their post as, ‘Such a shame, T- Series should mention the original creator, who developed the artwork @vaanarsenastudios.’

‘It’s disappointing to see our work being copied like this. But over the years, it’s happened so many times that it’s just funny at this point. We don’t see the point of fighting this as we’d rather focus on bringing you guys awesome content and continue on building that road. But maybejust maybe, the word will spread :) (sic),’ read its post as reported by India Today.

'Adipurush' is a mythological drama that stars Prabhas in the role of Lord Ram, features Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh and Kriti Sanon as Janaki. Directed by Om Raut, the film is reportedly made on a budget of Rs. 500 crore. ‘Adipurush’ is set to release in theatres on January 12, 2023.
