Amidst eager anticipation, the forthcoming cinematic marvel, Ramayana, helmed by the adept Nitesh Tiwari and boasting a star-studded ensemble featuring luminaries such as Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash, and Sunny Deol, has stirred considerable excitement among cinephiles.

Ranbir Kapoor embodies the noble persona of Lord Ram, while Sai Pallavi breathes life into the character of Sita. Yash, in turn, dons the mantle of the formidable Ravana, while Sunny Deol graces the screen as the venerable Hanuman. Speculation has been rife regarding the anticipated release, with preliminary indications pointing towards a debut in the year 2025.

According to insider sources, the filming for Ramayana is slated to kick off on April 2nd in the bustling metropolis of Mumbai, with a bespoke set erected at Film City to serve as the backdrop for this spiritual odyssey.

The set design draws inspiration from the tranquil environs of a Gurukul, accentuated by the incorporation of a chroma key screen to augment the visual effects in post-production. The initial phase of filming will primarily focus on the formative years of Lord Ram, Laxman, and Bharat, portrayed by a cast of juvenile actors. Notably, Shishir Sharma has been entrusted with the pivotal role of Guru Vasishtha.

Director Nitesh Tiwari’s unwavering commitment to presenting an authentic rendition of this timeless epic is evident in his meticulous approach towards every facet of production. The overarching objective of the film transcends mere entertainment; it aspires to impart profound wisdom to future generations. Notably, Ranbir Kapoor will be absent during the preliminary shoot, as he embarks on a sojourn to Los Angeles for the culmination of the requisite 3D scanning procedures essential for the post-production phase.

Ramayana is being brought to life through the collaborative efforts of Namit Malhotra, Nitesh Tiwari, and Yash, with an official proclamation slated for Ram Navami, falling on the 17th of April in the year 2024. The production team endeavors to commence filming in the month of April and draw the curtains on this magnum opus by July, with the ambitious aim of unveiling it to the world during the festive season of Diwali in the year 2025.

Whispers abound of elaborate ceremonies and rituals slated to coincide with the official announcement of the film, further heightening the sense of anticipation surrounding this cinematic extravaganza.
