The teaser for Nitesh Tiwari's 'Ramayana', featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, has ignited discussions across social media platforms. Following its release, AI-generated images depicting the late Sushant Singh Rajput in the role have garnered significant attention, with many Reddit users suggesting he would have been a better fit. Comments highlighted Rajput's 'kind eyes and calming aura', qualities they associate with Lord Rama. However, some users pointed out that Rajput's skin tone might not align with the traditional depiction of the character. The film, which boasts a staggering budget of ₹4000 crore (approximately $480 million USD), is set to be released in two parts, with the first part scheduled for October 2026 and the second in 2027. Alongside Kapoor, the film features Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman, and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman.
