Ranbir Kapoor has taken on the divine role of Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's ambitious 'Ramayana' film.
Recently, a teaser was unveiled on Hanuman Jayanti, showcasing Kapoor's first look as Lord Ram. While the teaser received mixed reactions overall, audiences have widely praised Kapoor's portrayal. The actor shared his profound connection to the role, especially as it aligns with his personal journey of fatherhood.
Kapoor revealed that he would recount tales from the epic to his daughter, Raha, who is three and a half years old. He expressed his desire to share this cherished aspect of their culture with a global audience.
He also disclosed that the offer to play Lord Ram was extended approximately four years ago. His initial instinct was to refuse, feeling unprepared and unable to do justice to the character. This daunting prospect, however, transformed into immense gratitude, marking a significant life and career turning point.
This profound role and his newfound fatherhood became a pivotal moment for Ranbir Kapoor, who, along with Alia Bhatt, welcomed their daughter Raha in November 2022.
