Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious cinematic venture Ramayana is set for a grand theatrical release this Diwali, and its sequel is slated to hit the big screen in 2027. The highly anticipated film is an adaptation of the ancient Indian epic Ramayana, a timeless tale of the victory of good over evil, and promises epic storytelling along with a never-before-seen visual spectacle. The film is headlined by Ranbir Kapoor as the protagonist and Yash as the antagonist Ravana.
