Was Rajamouli Not Prepared For Negative Response?

Rajamouli is one of the most creative and commercially successful film makers in Indian cinema. He is currently collaborating with Mahesh Babu for his upcoming project, which is in the production stage and the first major promotional material to be released on November 14.

However, Rajamouli, known for his grand cinematic vision, is facing unexpected criticism soon after unveiling the first poster of his upcoming project.

While fans eagerly awaited a glimpse of the director’s next magnum opus following RRR, the poster seems to have triggered mixed reactions online. Many felt that the design looked rather ordinary for a filmmaker of Rajamouli’s stature, lacking the visual punch and innovation expected from him.

Some netizens compared it to fan-made designs, saying it failed to evoke curiosity or excitement about the film’s theme.

Others pointed out that Rajamouli’s earlier works, from Baahubali to RRR, set very high expectations, making it difficult for any new project to match that grandeur from the first look itself.

However, a section of fans defended the poster, suggesting that Rajamouli might be deliberately keeping things minimal to build intrigue.

They believe the master storyteller knows how to surprise audiences and that early judgments might be premature. Despite the criticism, the buzz around the film remains strong.

With Rajamouli’s proven track record and perfectionist approach, many expect the director to silence critics once the teaser or first glimpse of the movie releases.
