Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Ramayana’ is indeed in the making! After growing up watching Ramanand Sagar’s ‘Ramayan,’ ace filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari is now gearing up to make a larger-than-life spectacle of the epic. While there is no official announcement of the same, strong media reports state that the film will star Ranbir Kapoor as ‘Lord Ram,’ Sai Pallavi as ‘Mata Sita’ and KGF’s Yash as ‘Raavan’. While a lot is already being said and written about the film, the filmmaker has finally spilled some interesting beans on his upcoming magnum project.
Recently, a Reddit user shared a short clip of the filmmaker from one of his interviews where he spoke at length about his most-anticipated film and spilled the beans about his vision for the film. The Dangal director revealed that the big assurance is VFX, which has grown many folds. He added that the Indian epic has been told in the form that it deserves to be told. Further adding that we have seen the epic in ‘oldest’ and ‘earliest’ forms, making us wonder if he hinted at TV’s OG series.
Speaking to Rajeev Masand, Nitesh Tiwari said, “One of the big reasons why I chose to do it, apart from a lot of other reasons which compelled me and made me want to do this film is a big reassurance is the capabilities of VFX have gone many folds. Our oldest memories, or the earliest memories, are still 30 years old. We really haven’t seen Ramayana in the form it deserves to be told. Also, when I saw the kind of work that Ravi Udyawar (filmmaker) has put in is creating a world for Ramayana – I came on board a little later – by the time he had already put in a lot of work.”
