Following the national fame achieved by Yash, particularly through the ‘KGF’ franchise, attempting to create a movie based on epics like Ramayanam and Mahabharatam is undoubtedly a bold endeavor. This is especially true in the aftermath of the challenges faced by ‘Adipurush.’ However, a high-budget Bollywood film centered on the Ramayana has been in the planning stages for quite some time, and it is now advancing with the finalization of its cast.
In the latest update, it has been heard that the film is indeed in progress, with Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and KGF’s Yash set to play pivotal roles. Director Nitesh Tiwari, who has long harbored the dream of bringing the Ramayana to the big screen, is trying to rope these stars for the movie. This ambitious project is intended to be a trilogy, with the acclaimed Oscar-winning VFX company DNEG handling the visual effects.
The initial installment will primarily focus on the characters of Rama and Sita, portrayed by Ranbir and Sai Pallavi, while Yash will be seen as the demon king Ravanasura towards the end of this part, with a more substantial role in the second installment.
Given the disappointment with ‘Adipurush‘ due to its subpar graphics, character appearances, and language, the Bollywood media is now emphasizing Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana as a potentially groundbreaking cinematic experience. Crafting a film based on an epic that audiences are already familiar with, having seen it numerous times, will require a compelling script and powerful emotional storytelling.
Undoubtedly, the casting of Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash, who are all highly regarded actors, appears promising for the project. However, at this stage, it remains a strong rumor, and fans eagerly await the official announcement.
