K Ramp was released in theatres on Saturday as a Diwali treat. A 'Thank You' meet was held in the evening by the core team behind the comedy entertainer.
Kiran Abbavaram said that the audience have handed over a big success to him this Diwali. "Right since the morning, I have been listening to positive responses from the ground. After the media show today, many called me up personally to say that they were in splits, especially during the second hour. This is the first time that I have received these many calls from the media. Show after show, footfalls are going up today. The film was made with rich expectations. This is a festival release meant to entertain the audience. The Theaters are packed. Massy stuff with boisterous comedy has been missed by the audience. K-Ramp has been made to fill the void. My SR Kalyanamandapam received ratings as low as 1.5. But by afternoon on Day 1, theatres were packed. Something similar is happening with K-Ramp."
Producer Razesh Danda said, "I was disappointed with the ratings in the morning. I can welcome even negative ratings. But I am in pain for a different reason. The media shows bias against small producers. For many movies that they don't like, they post late reviews. For other movies, they are early with their publication. Why does this happen? You have to see both Baahubali and K-Ramp as equal. I don't want to brag about the collections, but they have been on the rise with each passing show for K-Ramp. I expect the media to support us. Many in the industry today told me not to worry about the negative reviews. They are confident that K-Ramp's performance at the ticket counters will be different from what the reviews indicate."
Director Jains Nani said, "Although the negative reviews early in the morning disappointed me, the response to K-Ramp in theatres has boosted my confidence. The audience are laughing out loud. The father-son emotional arc has connected with them so well. I have seen someone suffering from PTSD. So, I know what it is like to live with such a person. A serious treatment wouldn't have been audience-friendly."
