Perspectives and Viewpoints on Malhotra’s writings{{Quote|text=Rita’s poetry has fascinated me for years now, since I first translated her poems into Romanian in 2007 and have continued to do so.

Her writing is full of sense and sensibility besides colour, mystery, love and elements of Indian Mythology. |author= Dr.Iacob Olimpia, Writers’ Union of Romania, Former Faculty, Department of Modern Languages at Vasile Goldiş West University of Arad, Romania }}{{Quote |text=As the Hungarian translator of Dr. Rita Malhotra's poems I found her poetic works very profound, sensitive and open. Though all these are interlinked, by openness, I simply mean how she uses the form. She mostly writes in free verse, often without punctuation and with the mentioned sensitiveness, this gives us the very idea that these lines are emerging from a self-constructed eternity; profound in its own right.. |author=Dr. Gabor Lanczkor, Award Winning, Hungarian poet, novelist, playwright. }}{{Quote |text=Rita's poems abound in philosophical wisdom as they transcend time and death.

Her aesthetic longing played in a tough game of chess; her cry for a violated girl; her love for the earth, water, air, sky and stars put her in the category of greatest contemporary women poets of Indian subcontinent. Her craft is that of a master sculptor who turns stone into a flawless figurine.' |author=First M.
