7 Nov
Summary
- Abhay Arora served as Ranbir Kapoor's body double for Lord Parshuram.
- Makers aimed to visually link Lord Vishnu's sixth and seventh avatars.
- Both actors performed the same scenes for continuity and connection.
In the upcoming Ramayana, actor Abhay Arora played a crucial role as Ranbir Kapoor's body double for the character of Lord Parshuram. The filmmakers intentionally created a visual continuity between Lord Vishnu's sixth avatar, Parshuram, and his seventh avatar, Lord Ram. This creative decision was made even before Arora joined the project.
Arora explained that he and Ranbir Kapoor delivered identical performances, including dialogues and emotions, to ensure consistency. The intention was to highlight the shared divine lineage of Lord Parshuram and Lord Ram. Arora agreed to the role despite knowing his face might not be seen, as he wished to contribute to the film.
The actor clarified that several key shots, including those of Lord Parshuram seated and preparing to give the bow, were performed by him. The production team meticulously planned the coordination, with Arora performing scenes first and Kapoor shooting his parts subsequently. Selected shots from both actors were then combined to achieve the final visual effect.
