The film, which reportedly began shooting on April 2, 2024, boasts a star-studded cast featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Yash as Raavana.

According to a report by PinkVilla, producer Namit Malhotra and director Nitesh Tiwari have long envisioned Ramayana as a film with global appeal.
