Dhamaal 4. Pics via X
Dhamaal 4 has received mixed reviews from the audience and has been seeing a lukewarm response at the box office. Meanwhile, a clip from the film is now circulating online, garnering criticism from users online. Many have slammed the clip over its poor VFX and what seems like a cutout of Ajay Devgn's face floating on water. Others also slammed the choice of song.
In the clip, Ajay Devgn is seen almost drowning in water with his body submerged up to his neck in the ocean. Just his head sticks out of the water against the waves. Meanwhile, Sanjay Mishra and a little girl, are seen in a boat telling him to make it. Soon, he comes out of the water riding on two whales.
Reacting to the clip, one user wrote, "One would think after Dhurandhar, filmmakers in Bollywood would start putting more effort in their works.. but here we are lmao," as another commented, "In a time, when India's reputation is tanking globally, it's once soft power behemoth "Bollywood" is making absolute Dog Shit content across the spectrum"
A third user slammed the clip, saying, "Garbage of such epic shit, that Actors will openly shit on it in interviews (Tom Holland)" Many even claimed that the clip had a cutout of Ajay's face, saying, "People thinking its a cut out of Ajay smh Have y'all seen him act before? Aisa hi hai woh" One user joked, "This is not a cutout. Ajay Devgan has a wooden face." Another user said, "Dhamaal 4, what the crap. Its look like an anaconda snake shows its head like they Just Used Ajay Devgan head To Shoot An Entire Sequence."
One user went on to say, "Koi aur karta toh samajh bhi ata, but AJ himself, being a director, owns a vfx company, should have at least considered shooting for this shot on a green mat." Another user mocked the clip saying, "Give them the Oscar And he has his own visual effects studio....."
Another furious user wrote, "I can't even digest this 1 min of clip. How tf did audience suffer throughout the whole movie in the theatres?" Criticising the choice of song, a user commented, "They had 100 songs to choose from and still chose Bella Ciao for background music"
