Earlier, 'Adipurursh' teaser created an all-time viewership record

The teaser of Adipurush—released on October 5, 2022—met with mixed reactions from the fans. But despite that, it managed to create a record of the most-viewed Indian movie teaser of all time in the first 24 hours in a single language, according to Sacnilk.

The trailer revealed redefined VFX

The trailer, released on Tuesday, immediately distinguished itself from the earlier one, demonstrating significant improvement in the VFX—the primary reason why the release was delayed from January to June. While the earlier trailer looked work-in-progress, the latest clip released is much closer to what we expect from high-budget Indian films. With spectacular high-defined visuals and battle sequences, the trailer was met with positive reviews.
