Praising the film’s team, Ranbir said, “I am currently working on a film called Ramayan, which is India’s greatest story. It’s being produced by Namit Malhotra…It’s got artists, creators and different crew members from all around the world. It’s made over two parts. It’s the story of Lord Ram and Raavan and it’s India’s greatest story. And to say it to this new generation with the kind of technology that we have it’s a very exciting and very gratifying opportunity for me as an actor, especially to play the part of Lord Ram.”
Delving further into the details, he added that Ramayana has two parts and that the first part’s shoot has been completed. He stated, “Just to be a part of that story, I am so humbled to essay Ram’s role. It’s a dream for me. It’s a film that has everything.
