With the auspicious occasion of Hanuman Jayanti just around the corner, the buzz surrounding Nitesh Tiwari’s magnum opus, Ramayana, has reached a fever pitch. Bollywood superstar Ranbir Kapoor, who is set to portray Lord Rama in the epic retelling, was recently “papped” in the city alongside the film’s core creative team, fueling speculation about a massive promotional rollout.
The actor was seen exiting a high-profile meeting with director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra. Dressed in a casual yet sharp ensemble, Ranbir appeared to be in deep discussion with the makers, reportedly finalizing the finishing touches on a special “glimpse” of the film scheduled for release on April 2, 2026.
A Symbolic Reveal on Hanuman Jayanti
The timing of the meeting is no coincidence. Sources close to the production have confirmed that the makers chose Hanuman Jayanti to unveil the first official look of Ranbir Kapoor as “Rama.” This follows a strategic pattern; the project’s initial announcement was shared during Rama Navami, signaling the team’s commitment to honoring the spiritual and cultural roots of the story.
Producer Namit Malhotra recently took to social media to express the gravity of the project:
“This is a story that belongs to all of us… every step we take has been guided by a deep sense of responsibility and devotion. We look forward to sharing the next glimpse, ‘Rama’, on April 2nd.”
High Stakes and Global Ambitions
The film is not just a domestic release but is being positioned as a global cinematic event. The upcoming teaser, which reportedly has a runtime of 2 minutes and 38 seconds, has already received a ‘U’ rating from the CBFC.
Key highlights of the project include:
Visual Grandeur: Collaboration with 8-time Oscar-winning VFX house DNEG.
Star-Studded Cast: Alongside Ranbir Kapoor, the film stars Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravana, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman.
Musical Legends: A powerhouse collaboration between A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer.
What to Expect Next
Fans are eagerly waiting for the 9:00 AM launch on April 2, which will see the teaser drop across digital platforms and IMAX screens nationwide. This “Rama” preview is expected to focus on the character’s persona and the film’s grounded, spiritual aesthetic rather than just raw action.
With Part 1 slated for a Diwali 2026 release and Part 2 following in 2027, Ranbir Kapoor’s latest outing with the makers confirms that the “Ramayana” journey is officially entering its most exciting phase yet. To know such latest
