The teaser ends with what seems like Lord Rama walking through a crowd of monkeys, creating a lot of excitement in fans. Soon after the teaser release, many flooded the comments section with praises for the plot, VFX and actor’s performance. Many claimed it has better VFX than War 2.

A user wrote, “Tollywood at its peak and showing true culture.” Another user wrote, “Teja Sajja ki script selection perfect hai.”

Others compared the film’s VFX to that of Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR’s War 2. A user commented, “That running on the train scene was far better than what we saw in War 2’s teaser.” Another user commented, “Even War 2 VFX feels bad in front of this. Once upon a time, Bollywood used to have a great VFX but Tollywood has overtaken totally. Really proud to see movies like these.”

Some even compared the film to Prabhas’ Kalki. A user said the battleground scene reminded him of a scene from Nag Ashwin’s Kalki. The user wrote, “This scene reminded me the Mahabharat scenes from KALKI 2898 AD. The VFX looks impressive.”

The People Media Factory production, originally made in Telugu, will also release in Hindi, among other languages.
