A new glimpse of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana was released online this month after a long wait. The response has been mixed, with many viewers expressing concerns about the VFX quality and questioning whether it meets expectations for a film of this scale.
While Yash’s full look as Ravana was not revealed, a brief back shot was shown. Responding to the criticism, Yash said that the work is still in progress, suggesting that the final visuals will be significantly improved.
Yash also confirmed that DNEG is handling the visual effects for the film. He assured that the team is working towards delivering a top notch product. The actor further revealed that Ramayana is scheduled for a Diwali release this year.
Despite these assurances, many viewers remain unconvinced. Comparisons are being drawn with Adipurush, where early criticism of the teaser was followed by similar promises, but the final output did not meet audience expectations.
Ramayana is being produced on a massive scale with a high budget, which raises the stakes further. The makers are expected to ensure strong visual quality and maintain authenticity while bringing the epic story to the big screen.
Any shortcomings could affect the film’s box office performance. Given the large investment, the film will require a long and successful theatrical run to recover costs and generate profits.
With a few months remaining for release, expectations continue to build. It remains to be seen whether Ramayana will overcome the initial backlash and deliver a visually impressive cinematic experience.
