Saif Ali Khan has previously worked with Om Raut in Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. Earlier, talking about joining the cast of Adipurush, Saif said in a statement: "I'm thrilled to be working with Omi dada (Om Raut) again! He has a grand vision and the technical knowledge to really pull it off. He has taken me beyond the cutting edge of our cinema in the way he shot Tanhaji and this time he is taking us all further! It's a phenomenal project and I'm super thrilled to be a part of it! I look forward to clashing swords with the mighty Prabhas and to play a role that is electrifying and demonic!"
Prabhas, on the other hand, feels that people will "love" the film. "Every role and every character comes with its own challenges but portraying a character like this comes with tremendous responsibility and pride. I am very excited to portray this character of our epic, especially the way Om Raut has designed it. I am sure the youth of our country will shower all their love on our film," he said in a statement earlier.
Adipurush will be co-produced by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series and Om Raut. The shooting schedule of the film is expected to begin early next year. Adipurush will release in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada and several other languages.
