The teaser of Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana starring Ranbir Kapoor has sparked a divided response, with a section of social media criticising its VFX as “video game-like.” Amid the ongoing debate, Hrithik Roshan has come out in support of filmmakers, urging audiences to view visual effects with more awareness.
When the first glimpse of Ramayana dropped on Hanuman Jayanti, it instantly grabbed attention, with Ranbir Kapoor’s look as Lord Ram becoming one of the most talked-about reveals. But the actor has now admitted that his first instinct was to turn down the role, recalling, “Out of fear, I said no... I’m not fit enough.” Ranbir revealed that when producer Namit Malhotra first approached him, there wasn’t even a script narration—just a direct question.

The film boasts an ensemble cast and music by Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman.

Actor Ashwin Dhar, who plays Arshad Pappu in 'Dhurandhar 2', praised director Aditya Dhar's realistic portrayal of characters, including Dawood Ibrahim.

This approach makes the fictionalised storyline compelling.
