Ramayana Film's English Cut Shorter, Lacks Key Scenes
11 Nov
Summary
- English Ramayana version is 30 minutes shorter than Hindi cut.
- Key scenes like Bharat Milap omitted from the English version.
- Hindi release features additional context on characters' motivations.
Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash, has drawn attention for its distinct Hindi and English theatrical releases. The Hindi version, running approximately 196 minutes, offers a more comprehensive narrative with richer character context.
In contrast, the English version is about 30 minutes shorter, clocking in at 166 minutes. This reduced runtime means several significant scenes are omitted, including the emotionally impactful Bharat Milap episode and detailed explorations of Rama's emotional journey and Lakshmana's reactions.
The Hindi cut also includes more extensive sequences related to Ayodhya and the wedding of Lord Rama and Sita, alongside an earlier shot of Jatyau. These omissions in the English version leave some viewers questioning the depth of character portrayal, despite the shared central storyline.
