1. Padmaavat
Deepika Padukone starrer Padmaavat faced a lot of controversies. One of which was Rajput Karni Sena pointing out how Sanjay Leela Bhansali showcased Rani Padmini dancing and flaunting her mid-riff. To address the concern, Bhansali came out with a plan. Rather than shooting the whole song again, the movie went under edit and had a sanskaari mid-riff. In the sections, where Deepika’s waist was visible, the makers took the help of VFX and got it covered.
2. Ra One
Another movie that gave us some exemplary VFX is Ra One. Though the movie came more than a decade ago, it is still compared to many new-era movies like Brahmastra or Adipurush when it comes to VFX.
3. Tiger Zinda Hai
Salman Khan’s starrer Tiger Zinda Hai turned into a blockbuster at the box office. One scene that became very popular was the wolf vs Salman Khan scene. In this particular scene, while the wolves used in the movie were real, the fight between the two was the result of VFX.
