The countdown for Nitesh Tiwari’s magnum opus ‘Ramayana’ began long ago, and Ranbir Kapoor has been fully immersed in the shoot for the past few months. However, the superstar has recently decided to take a short hiatus from his rigorous schedule. This break isn’t for a new script but for a deeply personal reason—spending exclusive time with his wife Alia Bhatt and daughter Raha.

According to sources in Mumbai, Ranbir has temporarily paused the filming of ‘Ramayana Part 2’. The actor was recently spotted at the Mumbai airport with Alia and Raha, where Alia was seen shielding a sleeping Raha from the paparazzi’s glare. While fans were concerned about the film’s timeline, the production house assured that this break was pre-planned to accommodate technical adjustments and set changes.

As the first look of ‘Ramayana’ was recently unveiled in Los Angeles, Ranbir’s excitement for the project remains at an all-time high. In a viral interview snippet, Ranbir shared how he narrates tales of the epic to Raha. “Raha asks with so much curiosity— Dad, did you shoot with Sita today? Did Hanuman come to the set?” Ranbir revealed. With Sai Pallavi as ‘Sita’ and Sunny Deol as ‘Hanuman’, the film is one of the most anticipated releases. Ranbir is expected to return to the sets soon to resume his legendary portrayal.
