Ranbir's Thoughts on Yash
As reported by a media outlet, Ranbir mentioned, "The characters of Lord Ram and Ravana will meet at the film's conclusion, and possibly even interact earlier in the story. However, we haven't filmed that segment yet, so we haven't had the opportunity to work together. I have known Yash for a while and greatly admire his work. To portray this character, we needed someone with his unique presence and perspective."

He continued, "Yash has brought such flair and authenticity to the character of Ravana, making it truly memorable. Traditionally, Ravana has been portrayed in a rather stereotypical way, but this interpretation is refreshing."


Two-Part Film Structure

Details on the Film's Structure
Since *Ramayana* is being developed in two parts, the climax will be featured in the second installment, giving the creators ample time to prepare. For now, fans are eagerly awaiting the first part's release on Diwali 2026.


Star-Studded Cast

In *Ramayana*, Ranbir Kapoor portrays Lord Ram, while Yash takes on the role of Ravana. At the same event, Yash commended Ranbir's talent, stating, "It is not easy for anyone to claim they can embody the character of Lord Ram. The fact that Ranbir expressed this speaks volumes about his capabilities. He is an exceptional actor, and I have great respect for his approach to this challenging role."

Additionally, Sai Pallavi will play Devi Sita, Sunny Deol will portray Hanuman, and Ravi Dubey will take on the role of Lakshman.
