Is Jakkana Rajamouli compromising on Baahubali graphics??

              















                                          Clock is ticking with just two months left to finish off all the work on magnum opus 'Baahubali'. May 15th is the release date of Rajamouli's huge budgeted epic war film. What's more important for this visual effects laced period flick? Rajamouli knows it quite well and he's getting that right. To make the film look like a 15th century war movie, surely Rajamouli and co is banking high on visual effects. Otherwise, recreating those years-back scenery and locations is tough if they depend on sets constructed by art director alone. Indian films that depend on visual effects have this reputation of looking amateurish and raw when it comes to realistic looking Computer Graphics. Say it Jodha Akbar war scenes, Robo climax or Chatrapathi's introduction under water scene, there are plenty of times where our movie makers faltered with low quality graphics.Even the recently released trailer of 'Rudramadadevi' won criticism from certain circles for its low-standard graphics. Purely the quality of VFX is directly proportional to the money involved and Rajamouli is not going back on this aspect it appears. He is taking special care for Bahubali graphics such that people get a feel of watching Hollywood movies like Troy, 300 and King Arthur with the final output. Hope, he succeeds!!
