The grandly scaled cinematic adaptation 'Ramayana' has launched globally, facing festive competition in Kerala where its local box-office success will depend heavily on initial audience response, word of mouth and adequate 3D infrastructure.
Nitesh Tiwari’s grand Ramayana adaptation, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Yash, and Sai Pallavi, offers impressive visuals and strong lead performances, though its excessive grandeur sometimes feels artificial alongside a sweeping musical score.
Nitesh Tiwari’s ‘Ramayana’ premiered in Los Angeles to mixed reviews, praised for its stunning visual effects and Yash's standout performance as Ravana, but criticised for its inconsistent storytelling, action depth, and musical score.
Prior to the film's release, the makers held an exclusive premiere in Los Angeles, which was reportedly attended by Hollywood stars like Jada Pinkett Smith and Jonathan Scott.
Nitesh Tiwari's epic 'Ramayana' trailer divided audiences; Yash as Ravana impressed, while Ranbir Kapoor's Rama and Sai Pallavi's Sita received mixed reactions, with criticism on visuals, costumes, and makeup.
Leaked trailers for 'Ramayana: Part 1' are prompting fans to demand an official release, with anticipation mounting despite delays and piracy.
The controversy erupted after the first glimpse of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram surfaced online, with several viewers calling out what they perceived as underwhelming VFX in key sequences.
The teaser, which introduces Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, offers audiences their first look at the scale and visual tone of the film. Mounted on a reported massive budget, Ramayana aims to blend cutting-edge technology with mythological storytelling.
The new year started on a positive note for the Hindi film industry, with Sriram Raghavan's war biopic ‘Ikkis’ earning strong reviews from critics, though its box office performance is yet to be seen.
Alongside Ranbir, several leading stars, including Alia Bhatt and Priyanka Chopra, have also praised the film through their Instagram stories.
