The epic mythological film Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Sai Pallavi as Sita, has been released. Actors involved in the Nitesh Tiwari directorial have shared details about the intensive preparation, particularly concerning elaborate costumes and makeup.
Ajinkya Deo, who plays Maharishi Vishwamitra, described his experience, noting that while his sadhu attire was comfortable, the heavy wig and beard took about ninety minutes to apply. He observed similar difficulties for other cast members.
Deo specifically mentioned Ranbir Kapoor's struggles with the crown and overall costume for Lord Rama, describing it as 'troublesome' and heavy. He added that the indoor, temperature-controlled shooting environment was a significant advantage.
The film, featuring an ensemble cast including Yash as Ravana, is planned as a two-part saga. The second installment has been moved from its initial 2027 expectation to Diwali 2028 to allow for further development.
