Namit Malhotra on Taking Ramayana to a Global Audience
Producer Namit Malhotra has previously spoken about his ambition to present Indian history and culture to audiences across the world.
He explained that Hollywood has traditionally had limited representation of India’s history and cultural heritage. According to Malhotra, the idea behind Ramayana was to showcase India’s identity, traditions and rich history on a global scale.
He believes the epic is an ideal story through which India’s cultural legacy can be presented to international audiences with pride.
Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman Join Forces for Ramayana
The film’s musical score is another major highlight. Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman are collaborating on the score, marking Zimmer’s much-anticipated entry into the Indian film industry.
With its ambitious scale, international creative talent and star-studded cast, Ramayana is reportedly being made on a massive ₹4,000 crore budget, which would make it one of the most expensive Indian films ever produced.
When Will Ramayana Release in Theatres?
Fans will have to wait until Diwali 2026 to watch Ramayana on the big screen. The film is planned as a two-part cinematic saga, with the second installment scheduled to release during Diwali 2027.
With the release of ‘Jai Jai Ram’, anticipation for Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi’s Ramayana has reached another level. The combination of India’s timeless epic, a high-profile cast and an ambitious international production has made the film one of the most awaited Indian movies of 2026.‘trrtv
