The first look of ‘Ramayana’, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash, was unveiled on Thursday. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the three-minute teaser showcases grand visual effects, with brief glimpses of Ranbir as Lord Ram and Yash as Ravan toward the end.
Scored by Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman, the teaser opens with the depiction of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, setting the stage for the epic clash between Ram and Ravan — described as “the war to end all wars.” Its stylised credits evoke the tone of ‘Game of Thrones’, though no actual footage from the film is revealed.
‘Ramayana’ is being promoted with the tagline “Our Truth, Our Story.” Ranbir Kapoor, last seen in ‘Animal’, plays Lord Ram in his first mythological role, raising high expectations after ‘Adipurush’ failed to impress.
Sai Pallavi stars as Sita in what could be a breakthrough role for North Indian audiences. She also appears in Aamir Khan’s upcoming ‘Ek Din’.
Yash, known for ‘KGF’, plays Ravan and co-produces the film, calling the role “the most exciting” of his career.
The cast also includes Sunny Deol as Hanuman, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman, and Rakul Preet Singh, Vivek Oberoi, and Arun Govil in key roles.
Reportedly made on a massive ₹835 crore budget, ‘Ramayana’ is set to be the most expensive Indian film to date—surpassing ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ (₹600 crore) and ‘Adipurush’ (₹500 crore).
