  "account": "Ranbir Kapoor and Arun Govil's Ramayana poster campaign has ignited a storm of debate among fans and critics alike on social media. The first poster depicts Lord Ram seeking blessings from his father King Dashrath, played by Arun Govil. A second poster shows Ram immersing ashes in a river. However, the visual quality, lighting, and overall appeal of the posters have been heavily scrutinized by netizens.\n\nCritics questioned why the characters appeared so artificial, with one comment reading, \"Why they are looking so artificial man?\" Another user criticized the lighting, stating, \"Hell nah man, you guys ain't doing the lighting well.\" The posters were also compared unfavorably to those of a television serial, with one fan noting, \"Bhai kya tv serial jese posters nikal rhe ho kuch feelings hi nhi h posters mein.\"\n\nDespite the negative reception, some fans used the opportunity to demand updates on the film's music and release date. One user remarked, \"Song announcement bhi kar do ab jaldi\" (Please announce the song soon), while another requested, \"Please provide song tomorrow.\" The upcoming two-part epic, directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, features a star-studded cast, including Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, Yash as Ravana, and Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman as composers.",
