đ„ Namit Malhotraâs Ramayana: The Dawn of an Epic Like Never Before
âOur Truth. Our History.â
Welcome to the beginning of a cinematic journey that promises to redefine epic storytelling for a global generation.
Ramayana, the timeless saga of Rama versus Ravana, is being reimagined on an unprecedented scale under the visionary guidance of Namit Malhotra, helmed by director Nitesh Tiwari, and brought to life by a dream team of global legends â Ranbir Kapoor, Yash, Sai Pallavi, Hans Zimmer, A.R. Rahman, and more.
đ A Reverent Reimagining
In a world bursting with reboots and remakes, Ramayana stands apart â not just as a film, but as an offering, shaped with reverence, precision, and cultural soul. With Indiaâs most cherished epic at its core, this adaptation is not a retelling, but a resurrecting of heritage â filmed for IMAX, designed for global audiences, and destined to become the definitive version for generations.
đŹ The Story Behind the Story
Produced by Prime Focus Studios, in collaboration with DNEG (an 8-time Academy Award-winning VFX studio) and Yashâs Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana is being released in two monumental parts:
Part 1Â â Diwali 2026
Part 2Â â Diwali 2027
Crafted by screenwriter Shridhar Raghavan, and shot through the visual poetry of director Nitesh Tiwari (Dangal, Chhichhore), this is no ordinary mythological drama â itâs a landmark production blending technology, artistry, and devotion.
đ Cast of Gods and Legends
Ranbir Kapoor as Rama â embodying virtue, sacrifice, and dharma
Yash as Ravana â majestic, intense, and magnetically complex
Sai Pallavi as Sita â serene, dignified, and powerful
Ravie Dubey as Lakshman â loyal and fierce
Sunny Deol as Hanuman â strength and devotion incarnate
Each casting choice is carefully selected to preserve both cinematic strength and spiritual authenticity, promising performances that will stir hearts.
đŒ Music of the Heavens
When you bring together Hans Zimmer, the maestro of Hollywoodâs most iconic scores, and A.R. Rahman, Indiaâs musical soul, you get a soundscape that transcends borders and belief.
With lyrics penned by Kumar Vishwas, a poet known for infusing passion with patriotism, the music of Ramayana is set to echo across ages, not just as melodies, but as mantras.
đ Visual Wonder by DNEG
The mythical grandeur of Lanka, the forests of exile, the vanarasâ valor, and the divine weaponry of gods â all will be sculpted by DNEG, the VFX powerhouse behind Dune, Inception, and Interstellar. Expect visual storytelling that rivals any blockbuster â and yet, rooted in Indian ethos.
âš A Global Celebration of Indian Identity
Ramayana isnât just a film â itâs a cultural milestone. It aims to showcase the depth of Indian mythology and values on a global stage, treating the story with uncompromising integrity. As Namit Malhotra envisioned, this is not a spectacle for fame, but a service to the storyâtold with truth, dignity, and awe.
đœïž Why This Matters
Weâve seen our epics reimagined â but never with this level of devotion, craft, and global ambition. From IMAX visuals to spiritual symbolism, from musical divinity to mythological might, Ramayana is here to do justice to one of humanityâs most sacred stories.
đȘ The Legacy Begins Diwali 2026
Prepare to witness the IMMORTAL story of Rama vs. Ravana as youâve never seen before. This is our truth. Our heritage. Our Ramayana.
Let the vanaras roar. Let the arrows fly. Let dharma rise again.
