Why Is Ranbir Shooting Ramayana 2 Right Now?
Originally, Ranbir was scheduled to begin shooting Love & War with Sanjay Leela Bhansali in March — but due to Bhansali’s recent health concerns, that schedule has been pushed to around May 2026. Wikipedia Rather than sit idle, Ranbir pivoted straight back to the biggest film of his career.
According to sources close to the production, Ranbir aims to complete a significant portion of his shoot for the mythological epic between March and May, currently sporting a clean-shaven look that aligns with the visual continuity planned for the film. Wikipedia
The Ram-Hanuman Scenes Are the Heart of Part 2
This upcoming schedule is particularly crucial because it includes multiple combination scenes between Lord Ram and Lord Hanuman — sequences that are absolutely pivotal to the film’s narrative arc and emotional core. Wikipedia
There’s something genuinely spine-tingling about the idea of Ranbir Kapoor and Sunny Deol sharing the same frame, embodying two of the most revered characters in Hindu mythology. The Ramayana — one of the two great Sanskrit epics of ancient India — has been retold across centuries, but never quite at this scale of cinematic ambition.
With a Hollywood VFX team already on board and Part 1 locked for Diwali 2026, the pressure on this shoot is immense — and the excitement even greater.
