The long-awaited moment is finally here. On the auspicious occasion of Hanuman Jayanti, director Nitesh Tiwari unveiled the first glimpse of his magnum opus, ‘Ramayana’. The 2-minute 38-second teaser has left netizens spellbound, with Ranbir Kapoor’s portrayal of Lord Ram receiving a massive thumbs-up.

The teaser opens with a chaotic world where Lord Ram arrives as the beacon of peace. Ranbir’s transformation—clad in saffron with a bow in hand—exudes a serene yet powerful aura. The hype reached a fever pitch with the powerful entry of Yash as Ravana and the soul-stirring call of “Shri Ram” by Hanuman. The collaboration of legendary composers Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman, combined with VFX by 8-time Oscar winner DNEG, promises an unparalleled cinematic experience.

Alia Bhatt shared her excitement on Instagram, simply captioning it “Ram.” Fans are already calling it the “Gita of modern cinema.” Starring Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Ravi Dubey as Lakshman, the saga will be released in two parts: Part 1 in Diwali 2026 and Part 2 in Diwali 2027.
