That said, the VFX work is not being handled by a single company. Instead, it has been distributed among several companies both in India and abroad, which means the budget has also been split accordingly. As per Gulte, the VFX budget has recently been increased by another INR 20 crores. However, there is no confirmation yet on whether the INR 75 crores figure mentioned by Telugu360 includes this additional amount.
According to reports, the decision to increase the budget was influenced by Chiranjeevi himself. The film also underwent reshoots to enhance its overall quality, as it relies heavily on CGI for its world-building. As per Deccan Chronicle, Vishwambhara was initially planned with a budget of INR 110 crores, but it has now risen to INR 130 crores, largely due to VFX upgrades and reshoots.
