Adipurush cast & details
In August, actor Prabhas and director Om Raut announced the project on their social media handle. The upcoming project will narrate the story of the Indian epic, Ramayan. Prabhas will be seen portraying Lord Rama while Saif Ali Khan will essay the role of Lankesh.
Sharing his excitement to join the star cast of Adipurush, Saif Ali Khan said that he is thrilled to be working with Om Raut again, their recent collaboration Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior was a massive hit. Praising Raut, Saif added that the director has a grand vision and technical knowledge. Sharing his experience from Tanhaji, Saif shared Om took him beyond the cutting edge of the Hindi cinema. Calling the upcoming project "a phenomenal" and his character "electrifying and demonic", Saif further added that he is looking forward to clashing swords with Prabhas.
Interestingly the 50-year-old actor has won a lot of accolades while playing the antagonist in several films. Some of the most memorable negative characters of the actor are Langda Tyagi from Omkara and Udaybhan Rathod in the recently released Tanhaji. In Adipurush, which is an on-screen adaptation of Ramayan, Saif will be stepping into the role of a larger than life villain.
