The excitement was palpable, plans were underway, and invitations were sent out for the eagerly awaited reveal of the key characters from Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious project, ‘Ramayana: Part One’. However, the unexpected has occurred: the event has been postponed. According to sources close to the production, producer Namit Malhotra has decided to delay the launch of the film’s promotional materials, which were initially set to coincide with the Ram Navami festival on March 26.
The event, intended to take place at the iconic Gateway of India, was designed to showcase the looks of the leading cast. Yet, in light of the escalating tensions from the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, the filmmakers have chosen to defer the unveiling. They now plan to initiate promotional activities closer to May.
An insider revealed, “The Ram Navami launch was envisioned as a significant milestone for the film, but ‘Ramayana’ transcends national boundaries; it’s crafted for a global audience. The producers believed that the current global climate isn’t ideal for rolling out such critical content.” They emphasize that there’s no rush in launching this important project. The first part of ‘Ramayana’ is scheduled for release during the Diwali season in 2026.
