The new promotional video of Ramayana opens with Ranbir saying, “Ramayana. Let’s see it in the best way possible. Namit describes it, saying, “Ramayana is a life-sized epic that has so much depth of character, emotion, spectacle. There’s something in it for everyone.” Nitesh chimes in, “People from around the world would be able to connect with it. There’s a great father-son story. There’s a great underdog story. A very brave love story.”

“When the opportunity of Ramayana came along, it was something that I felt we had to do. Some films don’t get made, they happen,” says Namit, as Ranbir adds, “The kind of cast, crew that Namit put together. The kind of opportunity that you gave us, the scale that you gave us, creative people, that’s really rare in this industry.” The producer also emphasised the staggering number of people involved in the two-part saga, “Just to give people a sense of numbers, we have over 10,000 people on this film worldwide.”

Fronted by Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, and Yash as the formidable Demon King Ravana, the star-studded mythological epic also includes Sunny Deol (Hanuman), Ravie Dubey (Lakshman), and veteran actor Arun Govil (King Dasharatha).

Designed as a grand two-part cinematic saga, the opening chapter is set to hit global theaters on November 5, 2026, with the second installment arriving as a Diwali release in 2027.
