After Mahesh Babu, his son Gautham Ghattamaneni has now shared his thoughts on Ramayana, and he loved the film. Gautham gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars on Letterboxd, marked it as a favourite, and called it “a true testament to what Indian cinema is capable of”.
“Blown Away by This Movie”
Gautham watched the film on November 10 and didn’t hold back his praise.
“I honestly can say, from the bottom of my heart, that I am blown away by this movie. The CGI, the writing, the direction and of course the acting was all so good,” he wrote.
Yash Steals the Show for Gautham
Gautham praised Ranbir Kapoor’s Lord Rama, but it was Yash’s Ravana that impressed him the most.
“Ranbir Kapoor of course does a great job as Rama. But honestly Yash was just INCREDIBLE in his portrayal of Ravana. Just incredible,” he wrote.
Special Praise for the Music
The music also stood out for him. “AR Rahman composes the songs so well and the score by Zimmer is just spectacular,” Gautham wrote.
His only complaint was the length. “I do have to say you do feel the length of the film at times but honestly I didn’t mind it at all. A must watch for sure and a true testament to what Indian cinema is capable of!” he added.
Like Father, Like Son
Gautham’s review comes after his father Mahesh Babu shared a special post on the film, calling Ranbir Kapoor, Yash and Sai Pallavi “magical”. With father and son both praising the film, Ramayana now has double support from the Ghattamaneni family.
Ramayana is running strongly in theatres and has already crossed ₹800 Cr worldwide.
