Controversial director Ram Gopal Varma who usually reacts of many issues has expressed his views on new releases. While he praised Rana Daggubati and his Teja directed film Nene Raja Nene Mantri, he criticized the other releases- Nithin's Lie and Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas's Jaya Janaki Nayaka.

RGV said, "Entire two Telugu states are only talking about Rana and they seemed to have even forgotten the names of the lead actors of the other two films which released along with NRNM.

Rana always had his looks and his Bahubalian personality but in NRNM it is his acting what the whole audience is celebrating and what can be a greater combination than Greek god looks and a super duper performing ability ..A girl messaged me saying Rana in NRNM neither Lie's nor Jai's ..He just Magics."

Meanwhile, RGV is not in good form since he delivered mostly flops in recent times. Rather simply praising Rana and Teja, he also criticized other two films released on Friday.
