Chandigarh, June 20

Bollywood movie Adipurush is enduring enormous criticism and wrath for its colloquial dialogues, poor VFX and loutish language.

Besides protestors and political parties demanding a blanket ban on the movie, it’s also serving as a fodder for the memes.

Twitterati is in no mood to let go of poor graphics and makeovers given to the characters in the movie, which has paved way for a meme apocalypse.

The multilingual film starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan and Sunny Singh, among others, was released on June 16, landing in immediate controversy over dialogues penned by Manoj Muntashir Shukla, a dialogue writer, lyricist.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
