The teaser of Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor and directed by Nitesh Tiwari, was unveiled on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti and quickly went viral across social media platforms. The much-anticipated glimpse garnered millions of views within hours, reflecting the enormous hype surrounding the project.
Fans largely appreciated Ranbir Kapoor’s look as Lord Ram, praising the effort to present the epic on a grand scale. However, the teaser has also faced significant trolling online. While some viewers acknowledged its ambition, others pointed out visible shortcomings in the visual effects.
A section of social media users criticized the VFX quality, stating that certain shots looked artificial and lacked depth, especially for a film reportedly mounted on a massive budget. Comparisons with Adipurush also surfaced, with some users expressing concerns over similar visual inconsistencies.
There were also remarks that a few sequences appeared AI-generated, with viewers describing them as “flat” and “game-like” rather than cinematic. Scenes featuring natural landscapes like forests and waterfalls drew particular criticism for lacking realism. Additionally, some audiences felt the teaser did not deliver powerful, goosebumps-inducing moments expected from a film of this scale.
Interestingly, the response has sparked conversations around other big-budget projects, especially Allu Arjun’s upcoming film with Atlee. If a film like Ramayana—whose teaser is decent but not extraordinary—is facing this level of scrutiny, expectations for this high-budget sci-fi entertainer have only intensified.
The yet-untitled project is already under the microscope, with Atlee often facing criticism for alleged lack of originality. As a result, whenever its teaser drops, it is likely to be closely examined, heavily trolled, and compared with both Indian and Hollywood sci-fi films.
Many film enthusiasts are expected to dissect every frame, drawing parallels with existing works and questioning originality. Even if the technical aspects are strong, skepticism around Atlee’s creative approach may dominate the discourse.
To win over critics and audiences alike, Atlee will need to deliver something truly exceptional—an experience that goes beyond expectations and silences the growing wave of skepticism.
