The songs in the movie is the soul of the film, and Dulquer Salmaan rightfully said Vishal is the “heartbeat.”
He expressed his sincere gratitude in a touching Instagram post, writing: “A letter to the two extremely essential people who are accountable for the quantity of love that I’m receiving.

Sita Ramam, yet another blockbuster from Vyjayanthi Films
“Right from giving me a platform to perform the songs live, to giving me the freedom to enjoy myself while composing is something any artist craves for. I’m saying all this today because of the belief you had on my team.
“Thank you for giving us the break we dreamt of. Thanks to you, so many new musicians got a big break. It is a heartfelt note of thanks from the entire music department of ‘Sita Ramam’.”
Sita Ramam unravels the mystery surrounding its title characters, Sita Mahalakshmi (Mrunal Thakur’s debut in Telugu cinema) and Lt Ram (Dulquer Salmaan) through two timelines — 1964 and 1984. Afreen (Rashmika Mandanna), a Pakistan-origin student arrives in India from London, when she is tasked with tracing Sita to hand over a 20-year-letter written to her by Ram. She takes the help of her college senior Balaji (Tharun Bhascker), who is now in Hyderabad.
Hanu Raghavapudi’s Sita Ramam, a beautiful modern-day reimagining of the classic Ram-Sita story, is the kind of film that can even make those who aren’t a fan of love stories have a change of heart. With its breathtaking visuals, soulful music and a moving story of love set against the brewing tension between Indian and Pakistan in the 1960s, Sita Ramam has its heart in the right place and conveys its message about love and humanity over war quite effectively. It’s the kind of film that reassures that grand romantic tales can never go out of fashion.
With this movie Vyjayanthi Movies and Swapna Cinema has delivered yet another blockbuster film after Mahanati.
