There’s been buzz about a ‘Ramayana‘ movie directed by Nitesh Tiwari, featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. However, recent reports suggest delays, mainly due to casting uncertainties. While Ranbir’s role is set, others like Sai Pallavi as Sita remain unconfirmed.
The film’s story split into three parts adds to pre-production challenges. Managing actors’ schedules further complicates matters, especially with political event restrictions due to elections. Yash’s involvement remains uncertain as he focuses on ‘Toxic’.
Moreover, Vijay Sethupathi exited the project, Sunny Deol’s confirmation is pending, and discussions continue with Rakul Preet Singh and Naveen Polishetty for roles. Despite plans for a grand production, delays loom large even before filming commences.
Ranbir Kapoor’s packed schedule post-‘Animal’ adds to the dilemma, with commitments to ‘Brahmastra 2’, ‘Animal Park’, and another project. Amidst these uncertainties, the fate of the ‘Ramayana’ magnum opus remains unclear, suggesting a need to temper expectations for the time being.
