  "account": "Ramayana Part 2, a two-part cinematic adaptation of the Indian epic Ramayana, is set to release in India during Diwali 2028. The sequel, starring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Yash as Ravana, and Sai Pallavi as Sita, has been postponed from its originally announced Diwali 2027 release date. Producer Namit Malhotra confirmed the delayed release date during the end credits of the first film, Ramayana: Part 1. The reason behind the one-year postponement is to ensure the makers can deliver a grand finale to the epic story. The second part of Ramayana Part 2 will feature larger war sequences between Rama and Ravana, requiring extensive action design, shooting, and visual effects work.",
