The first big confirmation of Ramayana is here! Actor Ravi Dubey confirms he is playing the role of Lakshman in Nitesh Tiwari’s epic. Ranbir Kapoor is playing Ram while Sai Pallavi will be leading India’s most expensive film as Sita Maa. Scroll below for all the Ve Haaniyaan actor has revealed about the project.
Why did Ravi remain tight-lipped about the Ramayana role?
In an interview with Connect Cine, Ravi says he has taken permission from the makers to confirm his casting. He shared, “I am playing Lakshman in the film. I finally have permission from the makers to reveal this. I didn’t talk about it all this while because I didn’t want to give irresponsible statements and spoil Namit (Malhotra) and Nitesh sir’s plans to reveal the cast.”
“Ranbir Kapoor is like the elder brother I never had”: Ravi Dubey
During the conversation, Ravi couldn’t stop praising his Ramayana co-star, Ranbir. He called him the “most immaculate professional” while claiming he hadn’t seen anyone so gracious and kind and warm.
Ravi Dubey continued, “Every time he is in front of the camera, you will see he has been at it. He works extremely hard behind the scenes but makes it all seem effortless. He is the only commercially viable artist of this generation.”
