Avengers Doomsday VFX gets negative reviews compared to Ramayana

The Russo Brothers released the trailer for 'Avengers: Doomsday' at the weekend, and a section of Indian fans have criticised its visual effects, comparing them unfavourably with Nitesh Tiwari and Namit Malhotra's 'Ramayana' and even Om Raut's 'Adipurush'. Times of India reports that social media users shared side-by-side comparisons, with one writing, "Honestly Ramayana looks way better than Doomsday."

Some viewers questioned the Marvel film's reported budget of USD 500-700 million against the quality of its VFX. 'Ramayana' reportedly has a combined budget of USD 500 million for its two parts, with Oscar-winning DNEG handling effects. Several posts argued that Indian films face harsher scrutiny for similar or better CGI output.

The first part of 'Ramayana' is slated for release on November 8, 2026. 'Avengers: Doomsday' will hit cinemas on December 18, 2025.
