Meanwhile, Namit Malhotra, CEO of the VFX company DNEG, breaks down the vision behind Ramayana. He explains how the film is being designed not just as a regional hit, but as a global cinematic event with cutting-edge visual effects.

Based on the ancient Indian epic Ramayana, the film follows Prince Rama as he embarks on a journey of exile, battles the demon king Ravana, and seeks to rescue his wife Sita. The official description reads, Rama is the greatest of all time because he lived a life where the choices he made were always in the benefit of the greater good, duty over desire, and sacrifice over self. His legacy continues to enhance and empower humanity over time and bring the belief in the goodness of the human spirit to resolve all conflict and bring peace to the world.

Ramayana is brought to you from producer Namit Malhotra, acclaimed actor Ranbir Kapoor and award-winning director Nitesh Tiwari. The cast includes Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. Yash also co-produces on the film. The script was penned by Shridhar Raghavan. The music was done by Hans Zimmer & A.R. Rahman, with lyrics by Kumar Vishwas. The stunning visual effects for the film come from the 8-time Academy Award-winning studio DNEG.

From its epic scope to its cultural significance, Ramayana is shaping up to be a landmark production, one that could redefine what Indian cinema can achieve on the world stage.
