The reactions from fans have flooded the internet: “The way he holds the arrow, it’s so good and seems perfect!! VFX, music all goated. Ahhh they teased us too early – got to wait until 2026 lol.”

“Ranbir got the body language right. Yash looks menacing, and Ranbir, the way he held the arrow—gorgeous. So excited.” “Honestly, Yash looks convincing as Ravana. He has the aura to carry a character as dynamic as Ravana.”

“Sorry but I feel Yash is going to cook Ranbir so hard. Lmao.” The contrast in reactions has only built more anticipation—and debate—around who will truly steal the show when the full film releases.

## A Vision 10 Years in the Making

After the teaser screening, **director Nitesh Tiwari** and **producer Namit Malhotra** addressed the press. Nitesh, reflecting emotionally on the journey, said: “T***en years of aspiration. Relentless conviction to bring the greatest epic of all time to the world… an outcome through a collaboration of some of the world’s best to ensure that Ramayana is presented with the greatest amount of reverence and respect***.”

He further added: “***For me, the most important thing is the emotions and the pride for the great cultural heritage of our country. If we can evoke that and show the world what we stand for—that would be an achievement.***”

Producer **Namit Malhotra** echoed this deeply emotional tone: “***I can’t believe we’re sharing this with the world. This has been a very long dream… My only aspiration is: with pride, how do we take our great culture and share it globally? I want all of us Indians to celebrate this—not just for ourselves, but with the world***.”

## The Ramayana Movie’s Massive Scale and Cultural Responsibility

Acknowledging the **legacy and scrutiny** following past adaptations—most notably *Adipurush*, which was widely panned for its controversial portrayal—Namit Malhotra addressed concerns about reverence for the source material: “***We are working incredibly hard and will leave no stone unturned to ensure we do justice to the epic. We aim to deliver the very best that anyone in the world can imagine.***”

This remark seemed to be a deliberate assurance that *Ramayana Movie* will not repeat past missteps, but rather strive to become the **definitive cinematic version** of India’s sacred epic.

## Nitesh Tiwari and Namit Malhotra Speak from the Heart

Interestingly, Nitesh and Namit initially shared pre-recorded video messages, apologizing for not being present. But fate had other plans—**shooting wrapped a day early**, allowing them to attend the screening in person. Ranbir Kapoor also celebrated the completion of his shoot for Part 1 with the team just a day before the teaser was launched.
