While fans have been waiting eagerly for the teaser of Ramayana to drop, Om Raut's Adipurush has also returned on social media as a meme fodder. In 2023, the hype surrounding Prabhas starrer was also huge, but the teaser dropped and instantly, the poor VFX work was called out. Om Raut delayed the film release by months, to better the visuals, but the final edit was no different. To add to the woes, the "modern day retelling of Ramayana" had various issues, with many pointing out the "misrepresentation of Hindu gods", the use colloquial language and the overall look and feel of the film.
