More Than Just Big Names
The film’s not just about casting stars — the vision is huge. It’s being made on a ₹500+ crore budget with international-level VFX teams involved (including folks who worked on Avatar). The aim is not to just retell Ramayana — but to bring it to life in a way that feels real, emotional, and larger than anything we’ve seen in Indian cinema.
What’s also exciting is that the story will be released in two parts, almost like a trilogy — which means more room for character development and emotional depth.
What Makes People Excited
Seeing Ram and Sita as real people, not just gods.
Understanding Ravan as more than just a villain — a wise king, a flawed genius.
Watching Hanuman’s undying devotion, Lakshman’s loyalty, and Bharat’s sacrifice.
The new generation might see Ramayana not just as an epic, but as a story of family, values, love, war, and choices.
