Today, on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti, the makers shared the first glimpse of Ram, played by Ranbir Kapoor, in Ramayana. Since then, netizens have been sharing their views on the teaser, especially about the VFX, which has been done by the film’s producer, Namit Malhotra’s own company, DNEG. The last scene in the teaser also featured Yash (the film’s co-producer as well), who plays Ravan. In a collab post, Namit, with the director Nitesh Tiwari and Yash, wrote on Instagram, “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 conflicts and bring peace to the world.
