As part of the Ultra Rewind initiative by Ultra Media, the restored release aims to rekindle the magic for longtime fans and introduce its timeless appeal to new generations.
Urmila Matondkar, reflecting on the film’s emotional resonance, took to Instagram to share: “It was never just a film. It was, and still is, a feeling — woven with intense joy, hope, dreams… and above all, a grand celebration of life.”
Director Ram Gopal Varma remarked, “At the time Rangeela came, love stories were stuck in melodramatic patterns stretched to unbelievable extremes, and music was used like a filler. For me, Rangeela stood for aspiration. Mili was the embodiment of every ordinary person who dares to dream of something larger than life. Munna and Kamal were two sides of that journey—the street-smart survivor and the polished star—both real, both flawed, both necessary. Now, with its re-release, what excites me is not just nostalgia. It’s also the chance for a new generation to experience that same freshness, to understand why Rangeela was not just a film but a shift in the way we looked at that genre of films.”
*Ultra Media CEO Sushilkumar Agrawal added*, “We are delighted to bring Rangeela back to theatres. It was a landmark film of the 90s, and this re-release will allow both old fans and new audiences to celebrate its timeless appeal.”

Winner of seven Filmfare Awards, including Best Music Director for A. R. Rahman, the film remains a cultural milestone that helped usher in a modern sensibility in Bollywood.

Filming has begun and the first schedule is already complete, setting the stage for a gripping journey that blends fear, irony, and RGV’s signature storytelling. At its heart lies a question that flips the very idea of safety: We run to the police station when we are scared — but where will the police run when they are scared?

Speaking about the project, Ram Gopal Varma said, “Working with Manoj again after Satya is both nostalgic and thrilling. Fear becomes most frightening when it challenges the highest authority of safety, and a police station is the ultimate symbol of power.

With Manoj’s intensity and Genelia’s vulnerability, this story will push boundaries of how we perceive horror in the guise of authority.”

With this reunion of two icons and such an intriguing theme, Police Station Mein Bhoot is already one of the most anticipated projects in the making.

The episode kicks off with #SandeepReddyVanga and #Navdeep hailing Upendra’s fearless approach to cinema in a special introductory video. Navdeep compares Upendra to Animal’s titular character and dubs him as “the OG real wild animal.” *Sandeep Reddy Vanga also heaps praise on him, adding, “He made Om when he was just 22. He was the youngest director in the country at that time. His screenplay felt like a film within a film.”* The conversation then transitions to Upendra’s early years, as he sheds light on the struggles and creativity born out of humble beginnings.

*Upendra recalls, “I lived in a very tiny house. To earn some money, I made paper covers and sold them to fruit vendors. That’s when I started writing. I approached a director as a writer, and he made me his AD. From there, I moved to becoming a co-director, then director, and finally acting in my own films.”*

*Reflecting on his personal journey and experiences with love and marriage, Upendra delivers a thought-provoking confession. He admits, “Marriage is a great institution. It is so good. I deceived you all by delivering lines like: ‘There is no love. Love is trash.’ Many of you followed it, but very quietly, I got married. I wanted to find out whether there was any truth to what I said. After experiencing it, I am fixed now.” One of the most fascinating moments of the episode unfolds when Upendra reminisces about adding an unexpected twist to a love scene in his 2002 film Super Star. He recounts, “During my trip to Thailand, I saw a tiger and wrote a love scene around it.”*

Rishabh reflects on the origins of Kantara, revealing how the film is intertwined with his home and community. “Since childhood, I have dreamt of shooting a film in my village and its forests, Keradi. I scouted this location for multiple movies, but it never worked out. Then came Kantara — which was finally shot here. It was a collective effort, over 700 people from the village contributed. It’s because of this overwhelming involvement that I call my home KFC – Keradi Film City.”

He added how Kantara has shifted his village’s perception of cinema, stating, “This region isn’t huge on films, but Kantara made them see their own on screen. It became relatable, and the love and blessings poured in abundantly.”

The conversation then steered towards their take on popular directors, which made him share his admiration for filmmakers like #SandeepReddyVanga, known for massive blockbuster movies like #ArjunReddy and #Animal. Highlighting how, despite falling into mass controversies, directors like Vanga have a huge fan following, Rishab said, “It’s crazy, nobody can think like him, and I think even he can’t think the same way again. I’d love to be involved in any projects he’s currently working on.”

In a heartfelt moment during the episode, Rishabh’s wife, #PragathiShetty, recounts the touching story of how they first met, “I’m a Rakshit Shetty fan, so I went to a Ricky screening with my friends. One of them wanted a picture with the director, Rishabh, so we spoke. And I told him how proud I was of his journey—from a small village to achieving so much in cinema. That’s when he fell for me! He sent me a friend request on social media, and that’s where it all started.”

1.YOU NEED BIG STARS to make a HIT (In KF apart from not having stars, the very design of the film is not to have a star)

2.YOU NEED MEGA BUDGETS to make a HIT (KF is ultra low budget)

3.YOU NEED SUPER HIT SONGS to make a HIT (KF has none except a chant which works in the film but not on YouTube )

4. YOU NEED MASALA ENTERTAINMENT to make a HIT ((You won’t smile even once in KF)

5.YOU NEED A BIG PRODUCTION HOUSE to make a HIT (No one ever heard of the producer of KF)

6.YOU NEED MANY CRORES of publicity spend to make a HIT(KF producers spent almost nothing on publicity )

The HAMMERING SUCCESS of #KashmiriFiles has BROKEN the following 6 IRON rules of BOLLYWOOD

1. Don’t expect the audience to be intelligent and only make illogical mindless films (The maker of KF took it for granted that the audience is intelligent and also that the audience wants to know and learn about serious issues)

2.Whether there’s a situation or not insert chart buster songs (There’s no attempt in KF to do this and just one chant Hum Dekhenge was used as it’s soul)

3. Keep the edit very pacy so that the audience won’t lose interest( The maker of KF takes his own sweet time on the presumption that the audience will be immersed no matter how long it takes)

4. Performances have to be over the top or else the masses won’t like it (In KF every character looks like he stepped out of history and not out of a make up van )

5. Let the background music be very loud and non stop so that it will make the audience think there’s something going on even when there’s nothing going on (In entire 3 hour runtime of KF the combined background music length is not more than 10 minutes )

6. Make sure to have seeti maar and taali maar punch dialogues and don’t have natural dialogue (In KF everyone speaks like in real life)

The MONSTROUS SUCCESS of KF will permanently change BOLLYWOOD in the following ways

1.It will start making a lot of serious films on serious issues

2.It will start focusing on content and not on stars,budgets and extravaganza

3.It will start making films with actors rather than stars

4.it will henceforth not depend on songs to make a hit film

5.it will finally show its face with pride to world cinema instead of being apologetic about the indian audience

6.it’s top 6 or 7 production houses and makers will cease to be at the top and will lose their control because KF has proved that anyone can come out of anywhere to sit at the top which is the ultimate democratisation of cinema

6.More than anything else it will start taking the audience seriously and not anymore presume them to be mind less dumbos who will only see Masala films

I want to sum up by saying that Bollywood will be permanently divided into 2 eras as pre #KashmiriFiles Bollywood and post #KashmiriFiles Bollywood

I want to touch the feet of @Vivekagnihotri and the entire team of #KashmiriFiles for BREAKING the foundations of BOLLYWOOD so as to BUILD A BRAND NEW BOLLYWOOD

“ARYAN IS BEING SUPER SHARPENED DUE TO THE EXPERIENCES’’

Talking about Aryan Khan living in Arthur Road jail and the conditions he’s had to endure, Ram Gopal Varma wrote, “Contrary to what people are claiming about @iamsrk’s son being traumatised, I feel he’s being super sharpened due to the experiences he’s being made to go through by the NCB (sic).”He added, “Regarding the so called horrible conditions of the jail, I am sure they would be far better than what @iamsrk had to many times endure during the course of his rise from being a nobody to be a super star (sic).”

“NCB IS MAKING ARYAN A SUPER SENSITIVE ACTOR”

Ram Gopal Varma further tweeted about NCB giving Aryan Khan an extraordinary launch, “The @iamsrk made his son a super star just by being his father but NCB is making him a SUPER SENSITIVE ACTOR by showing other side of life not controlled by his father thereby making him understand ground realities to bring in terrificness into his performances and personality (sic).”The filmmaker added, “The launch of @iamsrk’s son has 4 phases as in the son of @iamsrk, the director who does his first film, the NCB in general and of course the media for giving such an EXTRAORDINARY LAUNCH even before his father could, but NCB tops the list (sic).”

“AS SRK’S GENUINE FAN, I JUST WANT TO SHOUT JAI NCB”
