The star was quizzed about the VFX in his film ‘War 2’, in a comment that read, “Hrithik Roshan makes us question ourselves; that bad Ramayana VFX and War 2 VFX are debatable… Well, HR, I surrender in front of you! What a majestic stand you took! And did you just defend War 2 indirectly… Nevertheless, love always to My King.“
To this, the actor responded, “War2 had some physics/gravity issue and less time. It can happen. Whereas War 1 was absolutely spectacularly perfect.”Soon, another individual questioned, “Sir what about Fighter? What are your views about DNEG?” Hrithik’s reply read, “Fighter VFX was very photorealistic.”

Roshan took to his Instagram to share a post that read, “Yes, bad VFX exists. It’s sometimes so bad it’s painful to watch. Especially for me… and especially when it’s a film I’m part of.”A part of his long note read, “Today some special humans among us, like the makers of films like Kalki, Bahubali, Ramayana, (also my dad for Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish, of course), are my heroes; they have the guts and vision to do what’s never been done—all for the love of cinema so that we, the audience, get to experience something never watched before. From my point of view, they risked all that money and years and years of effort just so another 11-year-old kid could feel what I felt.” He added, “To me that’s noble. The intention by itself deserves applause! I am proud of my fellow Indians. What I would give to be a part of such dreams even as an assistant.”
