We have watched Ramayana countless times, whether on television or on the big screen. The story of Lord Rama, Sita and Ravana is something most of us have grown up listening to and watching.

With massive promotions and a lot of anticipation surrounding its release, the big question was whether…
Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is a visually stunning and emotionally captivating retelling of the beloved Indian epic, garnering praise for its impressive performances and grand visual effects. The film, consisting of two parts, focuses on Lord Rama's journey and the rise of his notorious adversary, Ravana. Ranbir Kapoor delivers a convincing performance as Rama, growing into his role towards the end, while Yash leaves a lasting impact as the menacing Ravana.
Sai Pallavi excels as Sita, bringing innocence and grace to the character, and the supporting cast includes notable performances from Arun Govil, Ravie Dubey, and Arun Govil.

The music, however, falls short of expectations, with some songs failing to evoke the desired devotional emotion. Despite some shortcomings in character development and music, Ramayana remains an engaging and visually impressive film that sets the stage for the eagerly anticipated second installment in 2028.
