Ranbir Kapoor's First Appearance in Ramayana Set to be Revealed on Hanuman Jayanti
The makers of Ramayana plan to reveal Ranbir Kapoor's first appearance as Lord Rama on April 2, which corresponds with Hanuman Jayanti. The producer Namit Malhotra made an announcement, creating intense public interest after online leaks showed mixed reactions from fans.
Official Announcement On Rama Navami
Sharing the update on Rama Navami, Namit Malhotra said, "Shubh Rama Navami, This is a story that belongs to all of us... guided by a deep sense of responsibility, devotion, and care." He added that the team plans a "grand launch with fans" to showcase years of effort and bring the epic to life with sincerity and scale.
Star Cast And Global Talent Involved
The movie features a powerful cast, including Yash in the role of Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol, who plays Hanuman, and Ravi Dubey as Lakshman. The project also brings together global names like Hans Zimmer, AR Rahman, stunt director Guy Norris, and performance expert Terry Notary.
Viral Leaks And Mixed Reactions
The first images of Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana character appearance appeared on the internet, but they received negative feedback. The actor in the leaked visuals wore a kesariya dhoti and janeu together with a wig, which most viewers considered unconvincing.
High Expectations Around Ramayana
The impending unveiling is a pivotal juncture for Ramayana, particularly in light of the lukewarm reception to the leaked images. This project is under more scrutiny than previous mythological adaptations, owing to its ambitious scope and the involvement of international talent.
Slated for a two-part release in 2026 and 2027, the film's triumph hinges on its ability to harmonize authenticity, visual spectacle, and audience reaction.
