Vijay Deverakonda's nude pose hasn't gone down well with Netizens, who were taken aback by the suddenness of its arrival on Saturday morning. It is said that the actor will be seen going semi-nude in the film in a scene related to his physical examination by a boxing committee. But the decorative and masculine quality of the pose suggests that there is more to the idea.

For now, though, the audience are not sold on the idea. While Netizens are saying that Vijay must be looking hot to his female fans, others are doubtful about Puri Jagannadh's judgemental abilities. "Wonder if this was required. On the face of it, the semi-nude pose looks excessive. I hope there is a proper build-up to the scene in the film," a Twitter user wrote.

A Facebook user commented, "The poster doesn't look attractive. It has no shock value either. It is just lame. This is not done!" Most critical Netizens are convinced that VD and PJ have done this to give a scintillating kickstart to the promotions of 'Liger'.

In the coming weeks, in every other interview, the 'World Famous Lover' actor will be asked about how he felt during the photo-shoot. It will be good if the makers reveal whether the semi-nude thing is there in the film or not. But they are likely tell the audience, "Wait and watch. You will know it on August 25." That will keep the pose in the news for weeks together!
