After Ramayana, Nitish Bharadwaj Warns Ranbir Kapoor

Nitish Bharadwaj said the trailer shows strong visuals and music, and he urged Ranbir Kapoor to move beyond violent roles.

  • On Thursday, director Nitesh Tiwari unveiled the trailer for Ramayana: Part One, featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, a project produced by Namit Malhotra that immediately garnered significant online attention.
  • Kapoor portrays both Lord Rama and Lord Parshuram in the film, a choice reflecting their shared status as avatars of Lord Vishnu, with India TV confirming the dual role after eagle-eyed viewers spotted it.
  • Social media users praised the visual effects, particularly the sequence where Parshuram gifts the celestial bow Sharanga to Rama, with many fans calling it, "This scene will tweet."
  • Hindu mythology identifies Parshuram as the sixth avatar of Vishnu and Rama as the seventh; their paths crossed after Rama strung the bow Pinaka during Goddess Sita's swayamvar.
  • Produced on a reported Rs 4,000 crore budget, the two-part franchise releases Diwali 2026, with actor Nitish Bharadwaj calling it "Oscar-worthy" and praising the music by Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman.
