In 2023, several reports claimed that filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari is finally working on his ambitious project, 바카라˜Ramayana바카라™, inspired by the mythological epic. While nothing has been confirmed officially by the makers, the film바카라™s shoot is currently underway. In the much-anticipated film, Ranbir Kapoor will essay the role of Lord Rama while Sai Palavi will take on the role of Sita. 

During a chat with Outlook India, Ashutosh Rana, who plays the role of Raavan in the theatre production, 바카라˜Humare Ram바카라™ and has been the author of a book titled 바카라˜Ramrajya바카라™, was asked about the film and the different versions of the mythological epic over the years. To which, he said, 바카라œRamayana has always been depicted by leading stars over the decades. If you go to the south, Jeetindra ji did Ramayan in 1977, and NTR who became the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh also acted in the Ramayana. Across India, work on Ramayan has been done in the past, it continues today and will continue to be done in the future. The Ramayan is such an amazing epic and the only other one is the Mahabharat.바카라

The actor added, 바카라œIt is such that what was contemporary then, continues to be contemporary today and will remain contemporary in the future too because of all the laws, policies and moral concepts that are outlined in it. Therefore, I think this will remain a continuous process.바카라

Nonetheless, Ranbir Kapoor바카라™s upcoming gilm has got several contrasting views so far. Arun Govil, who is known for portraying Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar's iconic TV show 바카라˜Ramayan바카라™, praised Ranbir Kapoor for taking on the role. On the other hand, actor Dipika Chikhlia, who famously played Sita in Ramanand Sagar바카라™s show, expressed her disapproval regarding the different adaptations of the epic, and said it might 바카라œspoil the impact of what Ramayan is all about바카라.

To say the least, post the debacle of Om Raut바카라™s 바카라˜Adipurush, starring Saif Ali Khan, Prabhas and Kriti Sanon, the filmmakers need to be careful how to tackle a project based on the epic. In an earlier chat with Zoom Entertainment, Nitesh Tiwari reflected on his decision to make 바카라˜Ramayana바카라™ post-Adipurush controversy, and had said, 바카라œMy question is very simple. I am also a consumer of the content that I create and if I바카라™m not going to offend myself than I바카라™m very confident that I might not end up offending anybody else.바카라 Well, only time will tell how the film pans out. 

Meanwhile, it is believed that 바카라˜Ramayana바카라™ is being made on a massive budget of Rs 835 crore, making it the costliest Indian film of all time.
