NEW DELHI: The criticism around Prabhas-starrer 'Adipurush' doesn't seem to die anytime soon. The Om Raut directorial has been getting trolled every time another movie with better VFX drops in. Recently, Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon's werewolf drama 'Bhediya' arrived in theatres and netizens started drawing comparisons over VFX with 'Adipurush', and slamming the makers for the poor VFX work. 

Adipurush received a lot of negative reviews and criticism after the makers unveiled the first official teaser of the film. As per viewers, the VFX and visual effects appeared to be amateurish, given the movie is one of the most-awaited upcoming films and has been produced on a mega-budget.

'Adipurush' was once again in the spotlight after a Youtuber recreated an underwater scene from the teaser featuring lead actor Prabhas. He explained the process of how he recreated the entire scene and shared the steps to make a 3D version of himself. After watching his video, netizens couldn't keep calm and hailed his work. Some of them even felt that his work was far better than what the makers offered in the teaser of the Rs 500-crore film.
