Bhagavan Dasante Ramarajyam or (Kingdom of Lord Rama) that is quirky and takes a tough stand against religious fanaticism. The title is also the name of a musical drama in the flick.

In the imaginary village of “Vannathikavu” the festival of “Vannathikaavu” is going on in which every villager observes a fast in the name of Lord Rama.

Entertainment

Kunji Raman, a famous drama artist from the village, dies suddenly. Bhagavan Dasan (TG Ravi) is his disciple, while Ravi (Irshad) and Chandran (Manikandan Pattambi) are his co-actors.

Entertainment

Will Bhagavan Das succeed in presenting the drama? How does he overcome the obstacles? — the answers to these questions form the crux of the story.

Entertainment

Bhagavan Dasante Ramarajyam also talks about the “new” India where minorities face struggles and violence every day because of their identity.

Entertainment

TG Ravi as Bhagavan Dasan is commendable. He also appears as Ravana in the drama where he steals the show. Akshay Radhakrishna, as Aadi, is decent.

Entertainment

Irshad, Manikandan Pattambi, and other actors did justice to their respective roles. Prashant Murali, who appears in the negative role of Sumesh, has a long way to go.

Entertainment

Bhagavan Dasante Ramarajyam is a clean political satire that dares to talk about casteism, hate politics, and much more.
