In another leaked clip, Lankesh was introduced with his back towards the camera.

Criticism of Adipurush's teaser

The new trailer comes after the Adipurush teaser received criticism for its VFX. The row prompted the makers to push the release date of the movie from January to June 2023. "Getting those five-six months extra was very important for us. We gave that time to our visual effects studios to make their work better," Raut told PTI in an interview.

"With some criticism in the beginning, which is always healthy, we got a little disheartened as we had worked hard on the film. But still we learnt many things from that. We moved on and have improved things as per people's suggestions. We are very happy with the product now. The kind of response we're getting now is fabulous," added Adipurush producer Bhushan Kumar.
