रणबीर कपूर is set to play भगवान राम in नितेश तिवारी’s आगामी फिल्म ‘रामायण’. साई पल्लवी will portray मां सीता, while सनी देओल has confirmed his role as भगवान हनुमान. The latest addition to the cast is KGF star यश, who will play the iconic villain रावण.
यश’s Multifaceted Role
यश is not only starring in ‘रामायण’ but also co-producing it with नमित मल्होत्रा. The film is being split into two parts, with the first part scheduled for release in 2026 and the second in 2027. This ambitious project is getting a lot of attention, especially with its VFX being handled by DNEG, a company that has won 7 ऑस्कर awards.
Before starting the shoot, यश visited उज्जैन’s श्री महाकालेश्वर मंदिर to seek blessings. This is not the first time he has done this; यश makes it a point to visit a temple before starting a new project.
Filming Schedule
The makers are planning to shoot some intense action sequences in the first schedule, which will take place in मुंबई. यश is expected to spend a month in मुंबई filming ‘रामायण’ before moving on to complete the remaining shoot for his other film, ‘टॉक्सिक’.
Here’s what’s coming up for यश:
- ‘टॉक्सिक’ is set to release in March 2026.
- ‘रामायण पार्ट 1’ will hit theaters on दिवाली 2026.
As a producer, यश is particularly excited about the epic battle scenes between राम (रणबीर कपूर) and रावण (यश). With the success of KGF and KGF 2, the expectations from यश’s upcoming projects are high.
