Rahul Sankratiyan on Ranabaali runtime

Rahul Sankratiyan on Ranabaali runtime. Vijay Devarakonda and Rashmika Mandanna's period entertainer Ranabaali directed by Rahul Sankratiyan hit the screens yesterday.

The verdict is out and though everyone praised the director for coming up with the unknown story and Vijay Devarakonda's performance has been hailed, people complained of the lengthy runtime.

In the midst of all this, Rahul Sankratiyan speaking to scribes said that Ranabaali will become a hit
He added that the film was not for box office numbers, records and collections or to score a hit or blockbuster. He said the purpose of the film is to tell the untold history to the audience.

He said they have taken a conscious decision to build the Ranabaali world in a detailed manner narrating it in a lengthy way and took a risk of having a lengthy runtime and this is now turning out to be an advantage.

Ranabaali starred Arnold Vosloo as the antagonist and Ajay - Atul scored the music.
