    Lucknow: On Tuesday, the Allahabad High Court voiced its disapproval of the film "Adipurush," which features several controversial depictions of figures from the Ramayana mythology.

    The Lucknow bench issued a notice to the film's Hindi dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir after granting an application for his impleadment while hearing petitions seeking a ban on the film.

    The bench did not agree with the argument that the film's opening disclaimer makes it apparent that it is not based on the Ramayana.—Inputs from Agencies
