Filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane, whose last film "Udaan" won accolades at many film festivals, has impressed the film fraternity once again with "Lootera", which was screened for a select few.

A period romance, "Lootera" features Ranveer Singh with Sonakshi Sinha. Co-produced by Phantom Films and Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Motion Pictures, the film is set to releases Friday.

B-town took to Twitter to share views on the film:

Karan Johar: Saw the superbly crafted and performed 'Lootera'... Sonakshi Sinha is a revelation! All accolades for Vikram...team Phantom and team Balaji!(sic).

Anurag Kashyap: Such incredible response for 'Lootera'. A filmmaker amongst us directors Vikramaditya Motwane.

Konkona Sen Sharma: 'Udaan' director Vikramaditya comes back with a glorious second film 'Lootera'. Can't wait to see what he will make next. Ranveer exceptional.

Aditi Rao Hydari: Lootera'...swooning. Ranveer, Sonakshi, Vikramaditya is epic! And so is the Dop (Director of Photography).

Shruti Seth: Just watched 'Lootera'. Such a poignant story of love and longing. Superlative jobs by everyone, but the director deserves the loudest applause. (sic)"

Milap Zaveri: 'Lootera' is an epic masterpiece. Bautiful! Ranveer and Sonakshi give the greatest performances of 2013! Vikramaditya and Ekta take a bow!

Ranveer Singh, on the other hand is on cloud nine with all the compliments that are pouring in.
