Event followed Ramayana glimpse showcase in Los Angeles
The New York interaction followed an earlier presentation in Los Angeles where the team unveiled the first glimpse of Ramayana to a select audience. At both events, Ranbir Kapoor and Nitesh Tiwari participated in conversations about the scale of the project, its storytelling approach and the responsibility of adapting one of India’s most revered epics for the screen.
During the discussion, Tiwari had spoken about the expectations attached to the role of Lord Ram and the reasons behind casting Ranbir Kapoor in the part. He emphasised that the character required emotional restraint, quiet strength and physical commitment, which shaped the casting decision.
🚨#NiteshTiwari finally speaks out:
"Lord Ram was a man of few words. His love was unbound. His pain could not be seen but it could be felt.. There is nobody better than #RanbirKapoor to portray all these things & manage the expectations of a billion people"#Ramayana pic.twitter.com/2IrweuTNof
