YouTube sensation MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, lent his support to the promotional efforts of Nitesh Tiwari's highly anticipated Ramayana adaptation in Mumbai. The event, held at DNEG/Prime Focus office, saw MrBeast joining the cast, which included Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Ravie Dubey, Tiwari, and producer Namit Malhotra.
The global promotional push aims to reach audiences beyond India. MrBeast received a warm welcome and participated in an audience interaction, repeating the traditional Indian chant "Jai Shree Ram!" after Ranbir Kapoor assisted him when he initially struggled with it. Ranbir Kapoor donned a blue kurta for the occasion, while Sai Pallavi wore an orange-peach saree.
Both actors posed for pictures with MrBeast and the film's team after the event. Directed by Tiwari, Ramayana is a two-part adaptation of Valmiki's epic, with Ranbir playing Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana. The film boasts a budget of Rs 4,000 crore and is being produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios in collaboration with DNEG and Yash's Monster Mind Creations.
The film is set for a worldwide theatrical release in November 2026 and Diwali 2027. Notably, MrBeast is also involved in promoting Namit Malhotra's The Angry Birds Movie 3, of which he is a voice actor.
