Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma praises Nitesh Tiwari’s film “Ramayana” after watching it, describing it as bold and different from conventional devotional cinema. Across multiple outlets, he also dismisses negative reactions by likening critics to “barking street dogs,” while highlighting the film’s storytelling approach and performances.
NDTV and India Today both report that Varma calls the movie a “devotional force,” with NDTV framing it as a “powerful experience” that goes beyond a standard devotional film. Free Press Journal adds more detail about the content of his social media posts, including references to praise for actors and a longer description of the film’s themes and how the narrative unfolds.
While the core message is consistent—Varma recommends “Ramayana,” and criticizes negativity as barking—the extent of quoted or summarized specifics varies by outlet. Free Press Journal provides the most expansive coverage, including actor-focused praise and longer characterization of the film’s tone and impact, whereas other outlets focus more on his headline-style remarks.
