Some films don’t get made, they happen,” says Namit, as Ranbir adds, “The kind of cast, crew that Namit put together. The kind of opportunity that you gave us, the scale that you gave us, creative people, that’s really rare in this industry.” The producer then pointed out, “Just to give people a sense of numbers, we have over 10,000 people on this film worldwide.”
Ramayana has music composed by Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman. Touted to be made on a budget of ₹4000 crore, the film’s first part will hit screens on November 5. The second part will be released for Diwali 2027.
