He would have been the best Rama. The best.

All those feelings when he died came back seeing this post. Hope he is in peace.

I agree he would’ve been better but the last slide defeats your argument considering Sushant wasn’t dark brown either.

Dude mogged so hard in Hollywood that they have to create a Wimpy character like raj to bring down aura of NRIs in Hollywood movies and shows.

In Tamil, we call him “Kaar mega kannan” meaning dark rain cloud like but our people love to white wash him and somehow made him blue.

The first glimpse of Nitesh Tiwari and Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana was unveiled on March 2 on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti and the one reaction that caught everyone’s attention was that of filmmaker Sanjay Gupta. He apparently took a dig at what he saw and tweeted this- “KHODA PAHAAD… NIKLA CHUHA.”

Namit Malhotra, producer, filmmaker and creative architect behind one of the world’s most ambitious cinematic productions RAMAYANA, introduces Rama; one of the most enduring figures in storytelling, through a dedicated teaser, offering audiences across the world their first look at Ranbir Kapoor as Rama.

This is Kapoor’s first outing on celluloid after he unleashed his violent streak in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal. From a psychotic man-child, the actor transitions into his most pious outing yet. The first glimpse is here and it stuns you with the ambition on display. The VFX are way above the 2023 ‘Adipurush’ and the visual effects look neat and natty. All eyes on part one to arrive in cinemas this Diwali.
