The issue with VFX is that getting the desired emotion and keeping the Telugu masses is extremely difficult. For instance, Baahubali 2 is a VFX creation in itself, but more than the VFX imagery, it is the emotional narrative that drives the film. This is the kind of grip that is lacking in other directors.
Nag Ashwin was indeed able to create finessed imagery with Kalki but the emotional track was not viable enough.

When extensive CGI and VFX are used, the realism fades away and this is where a director’s storytelling skills are tested and more often than not, this is where most young directors falter and eventually get trolled.
