RGV's Nuclear poster inspired by PlayStation ad?

Filmmaker gets 'blasted' on social media for alleged plagiarism.

It's impossible for a Hindi film poster not to be scrutinized. Netizens with keen eyes are quick to dissect a film poster, especially if it bears a resemblance to something popular. Ram Gopal Varma had yesterday revealed the poster of his ambitious Rs340 crore project Nuclear.

Most readers were initially hooked by the purported production cost, though the poster did not indicate any high production value. However, a day later, it has emerged that this poster may actually be inspired by the PlayStation 3 advertisement.

Pointing this out was one keen Twitter user. 

Well, after the netizen exposed the Nuclear poster and PlayStation ad similarity, we wonder whether these two men would be proud of their work.

Nuclear is a fictional film that will centre on political events leading to India, Pakistan and America beating a common enemy – perhaps the terrorists.
