Nitish Bharadwaj shared the ‘Ramayana’ trailer on Instagram and wrote,
This 100% deserves an Oscar for Best Foreign Film. Congratulations, Namit. Nitesh Tiwari is India’s next big gift to the world of Indian cinema after Satyajit Ray and Shekhar Kapur. This film can win many awards for production design and cinematography (DOP). Its period world, created with the help of VFX and AI, is fantastic. Thanks also to the great musician Hans Zimmer for collaborating with Indian cinema.

Advising Ranbir Kapoor, he wrote,
Ranbir is now on par with Ranveer, two unparalleled stalwarts of the next generation. Yash, welcome to global cinema. RK, I have always liked you as an actor, but now your social responsibility begins to carry forward India’s heritage, culture, values, and traditions. So no more films like ‘Animal’, no matter how big the offer. Please do not pollute your speech anymore. India has no shortage of stories to showcase your acting talent.
At the end of the post, he wrote,
I only hope that Indian audiences will accept Sai Pallavi as Sita. Also, I want Goswami Tulsidas ji’s chaupais to be heard somewhere in the film amidst the tunes of mridangam and manjire. This is the sound of this epic that resides in the soul of every Indian. I would like to watch Nitesh Tiwari’s grand film ‘Ramayana’ at least 5 times in honor of the hard work put into making it.
