Filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari is set to embark on the most significant project of his career, an adaptation of the Hindu epic, Ramayana. The anticipation for the movie is skyrocketing as Tiwari assembles an ambitious and star-studded cast.
Ranbir Kapoor has been chosen to portray the revered character of Lord Ram, while Sai Pallavi is set to grace the screen as Goddess Sita. Adding to the excitement, Lara Dutta is reportedly in discussions to play the role of Princess Kaikeyi.
An exclusive source from ETimes shared insights into the film’s production, stating, “The entire team of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana is engrossed in prepping for the film and perfecting the appearances of their respective characters. The shooting of the film is expected to commence in mid-April. Many of the film’s actors are gradually retreating from the public eye as they prepare to film on various sets constructed in Film City.”
While Yash, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Rakul Preet Singh, and Amitabh Bachchan have also been linked to the project, an official confirmation of the final cast is still pending. Reports suggest that the film’s official announcement is slated for April 17, 2024. Interestingly, this date coincides with the auspicious occasion of Ram Navami, a festival celebrating Lord Ram’s birth.
