Fans will be delighted by Ranbir Kapoor’s upcoming film, Ramayana, which is helmed by Nitesh Tiwari. The actor recently spoke about his excitement for the film at the prestigious Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah, where he described playing Lord Rama in the eagerly anticipated movie as a “dream.”
He said, “The film I’m working on currently is Ramayana, which is the greatest story ever. My childhood friend Namit Malhotra, somebody who is so passionately making this film, has got the best of all the artists from the world – creative people and the crew.”
Ranbir added that it is divided into two parts and is being directed by Nitesh Tiwari. He stated that he has completed filming the first segment and will shortly begin filming the second.
“I’m so humbled to be essaying Lord Rama’s role. It’s a dream for the team, especially for me, and it’s a film which has everything,” he further added.

The actor claims that he is “very excited” about the movie, which tells a tale of culture and message, including family dynamics, husband-wife relationships, and the triumph of good over evil.
From the beginning, Ranbir Kapoor’s impending mythical epic has excited everyone. Yash will play Raavana, Sunny Deol will play Lord Hanuman, Sai Pallavi will play Sita, while Ravi Dubey will play Lakshman.
In a recent interview with Connect Cine, Ravi not only acknowledged his role in the movie but also praised RK’s generosity, compassion, and poise, pointing out that even though he is a megastar, he maintains his modesty and never lets his efforts on set be seen.
Only a few months ago, the film’s producers announced that Part 1 and Part 2 would be released on Diwali 2026 and 2027, respectively.
Alongside Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal, Kapoor is also working on Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War.
