Having been let down by Adipurush, attention has switched to Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, know the movie release date and cast
The characters of Ram and Sita might be played by Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor, respectively.
Ramayana Nitesh Tiwari movie release date, star cast, budget, director
Dangal director Nitesh Tiwari has officially signed up to adapt the Ramayana for the big screen. The director is reportedly working with Namit Malhotra, the visionary behind the stunning visual effects in films like Brahmastra and Dune, to adapt the Ramayana narrative into a feature film.

India's biggest star Rocky Bhai turned down the role of Ravana in Nitesh Kumar's venture Ramayana because in that film, Ranbir Kapoor is playing Lord Shri Ram and Alia Bhatt is playing Mata Sita & both have eat beef,not in our religion.

So, if we take a reasonable estimate, the Ramayana film could premiere in theaters by the close of 2024 or the start of 2025. The producers of Ramayana have not even begun filming yet, thus it is far too soon to speculate on the film’s release date. Nitesh Tiwari’s next film will be well worth the wait, even though there has been no official word on when it would be released.
VFX for Ramayana
The Ramayana film will be produced on a massive scale and feature spectacular visual effects. Special sets are reportedly being constructed for filming, and Niteish Tiwari has recruited some of the industry’s greatest performers for the career-defining film.
The Ramayana-inspired film Adipurush is getting a lot of flak for its narrative, visual effects, and performances. It remains to be seen if Nitesh Tiwari’s latest film, based on Ramayana, does the source material justice.
The Cast of Ramayana
Apparently, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor, a real-life couple, have been cast as Ram and Sita. The audience liked the connection between Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt the first time they saw them together on screen in the blockbuster film Brahmastra.
An earlier rumor also suggested that Yash had been offered the role of Ravana. However, recent reports suggest that Yash has sworn off ever portraying Ravana on screen because the actor fears negative reception from his audience. It will be fascinating to watch who is cast as Ravana in the film.
The Plot of Ramayana
The movie will follow the same basic plot as the book, but the screenwriters have considerable leeway because it’s a movie. The essential plot will remain the same because the original Ramayana is about how Lord Rama defeats evil and rescues the goddess Sita.
Due to the epic nature of the Ramayana, any adaptation will be labor-intensive and expensive. This epic is rumored to have cost Rs. 750 crores to produce, making it one of the most expensive films ever made.
