Plot

Komal, Kunal (Komal's brother), Sameer, and Riddhi's siblings -- Rohan and Sanjh -- participate in a dance competition whose winners will be given the recently released video game "The Last Battle." They win the competition and are sent to the game room to play the game. When they start playing, they get sucked into the game and stranded on a vast prehistoric island. They fend for themselves against wild animals and deadly gem-seekers until they meet a wild man named Ramaa who lives in a jungle hut. He gives them food and shelter, and eventually helps them leave the island by building them a small boat. Problems arise when Kunal is kidnapped by Kaali, who is looking for the power to rule the world with the help of three stones which control the mind, body, and soul.

Reception

The Times of India gave the film 2 out of 5, praising the production values but criticising the plot. [1] Komal Nahta of Koimoi.com praised the stunts and locations but criticised the script. He further wrote, "On the whole, Ramaa The Saviour is a weak fare with bleak chances at the box-office. Its poor promotion will add to its tale of woes." [2] Daniel Pinto of Daily News and Analysis gave the film 2 out of 5, writing, "Ramaa isn’t the stuff of a classic. This is because of the limitations of the script where weirdness exits arbitrarily and the characters don’t evolve much." [3] Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1 out of 5 writing, "On the whole,’Ramaa-The Saviour’ isn’t convincing." [4]
