RGV claimed that a very "well-known director" informed him that he needed to select a VFX business for a certain scene in his movie and that he had to decide between one that would charge Rs 25 crore and another that would charge Rs 35 crore.
¡°The director told me ¡®sir, I don¡¯t know who can make it better. Both are big companies. I don¡¯t know how VFX process is done, I am not an expert technician on that but after thinking, we decided to go with the Rs 35 crore company only because we had the money. We thought the more they ask, the better they will do¡¯,¡± he shared with Film Companion.

He added, ¡°I have a suspicion that Prashanth Varma made the film in even lesser cost, much lesser cost because these days you are scared to say lesser cost because they might say cheap film, koi aayega nahi (no one will come). But in comparison, no matter how much he says, compared to Adipurush, it is a super cheap film, and we know the results at the end of the day,¡± RGV said.
