Summary
- An action scene from Ramayana's international cut shows Sita and Lakshmana fighting creatures.
- The unearthed sequence is absent from the Indian theatrical release, sparking viewer questions.
- The film has achieved significant box office success, earning Rs 375.50 crore globally.
An action sequence from the international cut of Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana: Rise of a Legend, depicting Sita and Lakshmana battling ferocious creatures, has surfaced online. This scene's exclusion from the Indian theatrical version has led to widespread speculation about the film's editing decisions. The sequence shows Sita and Lakshmana taking refuge in a cave as they are pursued by three wolf-like beasts. Just as the situation escalates, Rama intervenes with his bow and arrows to save them.
This unearthed footage has fueled debate on social media concerning why such a dynamic scene was omitted from the domestic release. Earlier reports indicated differences between the Indian and international cuts, with the latter being shorter. However, the appearance of this new action sequence adds another layer of inquiry into the filmmakers' editorial choices.
Meanwhile, Ramayana: Rise of a Legend is expanding its international presence with a release in Hong Kong on November 12. The film, starring Ranbir Kapoor as Rama and Sai Pallavi as Sita, has already achieved a remarkable global box office collection of approximately Rs 375.50 crore within its first three days.
