Ranbir Kapoor to Play Ram

Ranbir Kapoor is set to portray the character of Ram in the upcoming film Ramayana, gaining attention after his recent role in Animal. The film was highly controversial, the reason being Ranbir Kapoor’s character. Now it will be really exciting to watch him play the idol lord Ram. Sunny Deol is confirmed for the role of Hanuman.

Alia was Approached to Play Opposite Ranbir

Initially, there were suggestions of Alia Bhatt playing Sita, but she had to step down due to scheduling conflicts. Then Sai Pallavi was considered for the role of Sita, but now Janhvi Kapoor has reportedly accepted the offer to play Sita. This decision was influenced by director Nitesh Tiwari’s previous collaboration with Janhvi in the film Bawaal, where he found her suitable for the character of Sita.
