Now Manoj took to Instagram and dropped a video in which he was seen reciting some lines from Ramdhari Singh Dinkar’s poem Rashmirathi.

Interestingly, Manoj shared the video just a couple of days after he also penned down a note on Twitter which read, “People I considered my friends, abused me on social media, they abused my mother.” He had also mentioned that even thought he wrote 4,000 dialogues for Adipurush, audience is offended just over five of them.

One particular scene which has been facing immense backlash from the audience is when Hanuman said in the movie, ‘jalegi tere baap ki’ during the?lanka dahan?sequence.
