Whenever a film featuring Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna comes together, expectations are naturally high. Of the two films they had previously worked on together, one emerged as a blockbuster hit, while the other received a good response. The two films are Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade. Since Ranabali is the first film the duo has worked on after their marriage, expectations surrounding the project have been high from the beginning. Directed by Rahul Sankrityan, the film was released worldwide on October 16. However, it received a mixed response at the box office. Now, the movie is heading to OTT.
This period action drama will begin streaming on Netflix from November 13. Netflix has officially announced that the film will be available in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the film features music composed by the popular musical duo Ajay-Atul. In Ranabali, Vijay Deverakonda appears as Singanamala Bobbili Ranabali, while Rashmika impresses in the role of Jayamma. Although both actors deliver good performances, the director repeatedly portrays drought-hit regions and people who have become emaciated due to a lack of food for a major part of the film. As a result, most viewers get the feeling that they are watching a documentary.
