“What a Joke” “Disappointing”: Prabhas-Saif Ali Khan-Kriti Sanon starrer Adipurush teaser fails to impress netizens

Monday, 3 October 2022 (12:59 IST)
The teaser of Prabhas’ highly anticipated film Adipurush was unveiled in Uttar Pradesh’s Ayodhya at a mega event in the presence of Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, director Om Raut and producer Bhushan Kumar. However, it has left netizens disappointed and they are trending #DisappointingAdipurish.

Om Raut’s directional film presents Prabhas as Lord Ram, Kriti Sanon as Sita and Saif as Ravana.

Soon after the teaser is released, the film was trolled on social media for its ‘poor VFX’, Saif Ali Khan’s look as Ravana, Hanuman’s look, and Pushpak Viman. 

Netizens are dubbing the VFX of the film as “cartoon-ish” and “disappointing”.

Excellent VFX in #Adipurush teaser. The VFX artist must be the topper student at White Hat Junior. pic.twitter.com/5yohO93iqz

The #Adipurush teaser genuinely gives the notion that it’s a high budget animated film than a live action one!

The VFX heavy approach scares me as it seems like above and beyond even Tanhaji! This is alarming!! pic.twitter.com/FnvfYsg3Hd

It seems @ajaydevgn's VFX company did the shoddy job on #Adipurush by mixing Planet of Apes, Game of Thrones, some other foreign films, and 3D models available for cheap purchase online.

And while the shocking teaser released, Ajay Devgn made a #Navratra trip to #AjmerSharif pic.twitter.com/RuYLVOqu4o

Social media users are trolling Saif for spiky hairstyle and beard and questioning if the actor will be playing Ravana or Alauddin Khilji in the film. One of the social media users wrote, “I mean seriously!!! Are they going to change the name of ravan to rizwan ?? Who is styling his beard?? Javid Habib??"

Saif looks more like invader Taimur then ten headed Ravana in #Adipurush.How can Ravana be in beard, he was devout Shiv Bhakt. pic.twitter.com/EuytRUqazK

#SaifAliKhan plays invader Taimur!? kyu ki Ram tw nahi khel sakta na? After highly #Hinduphobic content in recent web series he is all set to be seen in this 500 Cr. Super crappy animation. #AdipurushTeaser can't guarantee if the Animation is going to be cringe or Saif Ali Khan. pic.twitter.com/b5qWhGn3SH

Netizens are also questioning the portrayal of Ravana’s Pushpak Viman. When some users are calling it a dragon or a bat, one of the users joking said that Pushpak Viman got infected by Corona Virus.

Ravana was using pushpak vimaan not bat
This looks like bat man from Atlantic Ocean@omraut#Adipurush pic.twitter.com/ViT77KfiEK

Ye kaisa Pushpak Viman hai? Bhai Lanka was one of the most beautiful and technologically advanced civilizations at that time.

Check out some more reactions:

#Adipurush #Tseries #omraut Lanka was madeup of gold and it was not black castle full of bats, Ravana had pushpak viman and he never rides on bats please fix your CGI or be ready to face a flop

#Adipurush has Prabhu Ram fighting an army of rakshas imported from Evil Dead or Pirates of Caribbean.

Never heard of such depiction in any Hindu scripture or folklore pic.twitter.com/q80trYdHmf

Is there mention in #Ramayan that Ravan used to ride on Dragons ??

What a joke, #Adipurush  pic.twitter.com/6550vZCCfT

Ravan was a Brahman, hard-core Shiv-Bhakt, King, Ved Gyata.

This new Ravan, Saif has no Tilak, no Janeu, No Mukut, no pushpak Viman, he simply looks like Uighar Chinese Muslin wearing left over clothes of English web series.

What a Joke. #Adipurush
