In October 2022, his mythological drama âAdipurushâ attracted controversy and faced objections for hurting the religious sentiments of the Hindus by misrepresenting the Hindu deities in the film. Several pleas were filed against him in the Delhi High Court while demanding changes in the film. Some stated that the film picturised the Hindu gods in an âunwarrantedâ and âinaccurateâ way in its teaser video. Om Raut rejected all the allegations against him in a media conference and stated that the makers of the film had not changed anything in the film, and it was just a translation from books to celluloid. Om said,
Our Ravan in todayâs time is demonic, he is cruel. The one who has abducted our Goddess Sita is cruel. We have shown what Raavan looks like in todayâs time. This is not a film or a project for us but a mission. Our film is a symbol of our devotion, and we need everyoneâs blessings for this.â
He added,
I donât want anyone to misunderstand that we have changed it. It is to translate from books to celluloid. So this is not a film for us. This is a representation of our bhakti, shraddha (devotion and faith) and what we stand for.â
