Poster Accused of Copying Instagram Photo
A Reddit user shared an old Instagram photo of Kartik Aaryan that looks very similar to the official Naagzilla poster. The user claimed that Dharma reused an old post instead of doing a new shoot. This made fans question the effort put into the movie’s promotion.
Social Media Reactions Were Brutal
Many users on Reddit and other platforms slammed the production house and blamed the growing use of AI in design. One person wrote, “All posters look the same these days because of AI. No originality anymore.” Another user added, “This is embarrassing. The visuals don’t even look professional for a 2025 film.”
