The makers of Nitesh Tiwari's highly-anticipated film Ramayana Part 1 have released a character poster featuring veteran actor Arun Govil, who will portray the role of King Dashrath. The official X account of the film tweeted, "He once brought Ram to life for a generation. Now, he returns to the world of Ramayana as the King of Ayodhya. Arun Govil as King Dashrath."
Arun Govil is no stranger to the role of Lord Ram, having played the character in the popular TV show Ramayan released in 1987. The poster has attracted mixed reactions from netizens. One user criticized the beard, stating, "That beard is too artificial and doesn't look good." Another user commented, "It's done Ramayana, wtf is this poster, it's look so bad, it looks like studio lighting worse than a serial."
The poster is not the only aspect of the film receiving criticism. Netizens have expressed disappointment with the previous posters as well, with one user stating, "The last two posters were best. But with this one, I think the head of Dasratha ji looking odd. It seems like the head is placed in the body and doesn't give any natural view. I would rate the poster 7.5." The Ramayana film is scheduled to release in two parts, with Part 1 hitting theaters during Diwali this year and Part 2 following on the next festival.
