Ranbir on playing Rama said in a statement: “I don’t think I’m here to represent Rama. I’m here to learn from him. There is a simplicity and purity to him that is very rare; and trying to understand and imbibe that has been a deeply humbling experience.”

Director Nitesh Tiwari said: “Ramayana’s greatness lies in its emotional richness. At its heart, it is not just about good and evil, but about choices, consequences, and the weight of doing what is right.”
He added: “Rama’s journey is deeply human and that is what we have tried to stay true to.”
Rama represents the kind of hero the world rarely sees anymore — one who chooses duty over desire and truth over comfort, reflecting the depth behind Ranbir Kapoor on playing Lord Rama in this ambitious film.
