Prabhas starrer Adipurush is an upcoming Bollywood production which is set to release as a Hindi-Telugu bilingual in Imax 3D. The movie which is based on the Hindu mythology Ramayana will see Prabhas as Lord Ram, Kriti Sanon as Sita and Saif Ali Khan as Raavan - the three primary characters of the story. 

This Om Raut directorial recently had a teaser unveil, and the video came with such bad VFX that it almost made the movie look like an animation work. There were also several Hollywood-inspired scenes, some of which were absolute lift-offs. While the jury is out on whether these copied scenes were recreated using proper permissions, the Indian audience has expressed disappointment regarding the same nevertheless.

The have also expressed that the first impression of Saif Ali Khan's Raavan in the teaser is a major letdown.  Adipurush is scheduled to hit theater screens on January 12, 2023 in Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada as well.

I just saw #Adipurush teaser and it’s very disappointing 😒
It doesn’t even look like ramayan.
Very ordinary VFX, mostly copied from Hollywood movies. Saif as Ravan is worst, acting like villains of Spider-Man. Hanuman ji looks like monkey King and Prabhash as shri Ram is 😑 pic.twitter.com/gejjucLF5W

The same VFX company also did the VFX of Shivaay, which was quite good. Even Tanhaji, I assume, was done by NY VFXWaala.

Don't know what happened here.
