As announced by the makers, "Adipurush" will have one seat reserved for Lord Hanuman. Director Om Raut announced during the trailer launch in Tirupati that one seat will be kept empty in every theater as a mark of respect to Lord Hanuman. Soon after this, reports were rife that the respective seat will cost more as compared to the usual seats.

On Monday, the movie's production company T-Series refuted all the claims on Twitter. T-Series tweeted, "There are misleading reports circulating in the media regarding #Adipurush ticket pricing. We want to clarify that there will be no differences in rates for seats next to the one reserved for Hanuman Ji! Don’t fall for false information! Jai Shri Ram!"
