About Ramayana
The film follows the opening chapters of the legendary Ramayana, focusing on Prince Rama as palace life unravels and he leaves the comforts of the court. Political rivalries and a fated sequence of events push Rama, his steadfast brother Lakshmana, and Sita, his chosen companion, into the wilderness where their relationships are tested by hardship and intrigue. As new alliances form and threats loom from powerful foes, the pair meet formidable figures who will shape what comes next. The story stops short of the final confrontation, setting up a larger conflict for the duology's second part.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana: Part One adapts material from Valmiki's epic with screen contributions from Shridhar Raghavan and poet Kumar Vishwas. The film features Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshmana, Yash as Ravana, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman.
Box office totals and commercial reception are not available at the moment, so specific gross figures can't be reported here. Any financial assessment will depend on wider release data and market reporting after premiere windows close.
Because it retells a foundational text with a high-profile cast and large production values, the film has prompted conversation about how ancient epics are presented to modern audiences. Costume design, scale of battle sequences, and the casting choices generated particular attention on social platforms and in entertainment coverage, sparking debates around fidelity to source material and cinematic spectacle.
The movie emphasizes themes of duty, honor, exile, and devotion, often framing personal choice against dynastic expectation and cosmic order. Performances by Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi are central to those emotional beats, while the action and fantasy elements amplify the stakes of moral and political conflict. Visually the film aims for an operatic, larger-than-life feel, using set pieces and effects to underline the epic scope without resolving the deeper tensions that will continue in Part Two.
