31 Oct
Summary
- Yash explained his Ravana role to his son, highlighting character vs. actor.
- He emphasized Lord Rama as the ideal, not his Ravana portrayal.
- Yash's son asked if Ravana dies, prompting a discussion on dramatic roles.
Actor Yash recently shared an insightful experience preparing for his role as the demon king Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari's upcoming epic, 'Ramayana'. He explained to his son that Ravana's character is crucial for understanding the full narrative, even though Lord Rama is the true ideal to emulate. Yash clarified that portraying an antagonist does not equate to endorsing their actions.
Yash emphasized that while his son could appreciate his performance as Ravana, the story's central figure, Lord Rama, embodies righteousness and lasting victory. The conversation became more poignant when his son asked if Ravana dies in the end, a question that underscored the actor's journey in distinguishing between a dramatic role and the actor himself.
Nitesh Tiwari's 'Ramayana' features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Sai Pallavi as Sita, with Yash as Ravana. The film, also starring Ravi Dubey as Lakshman and Sunny Deol as Hanuman, is set for a worldwide theatrical release on November 5, 2026. The score is composed by AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer.
