Ramayana Could ‘Fail’ If Hollywood Hearts Don’t Approve?

Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana is shaping up as one of the most ambitious and expensive films in Indian cinema. Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi, and directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the project has already grabbed attention. Every frame promises scale, emotion, and spectacle, aiming to rival international blockbusters.

Namit Malhotra has said that his vision goes beyond India. He wants Ramayana to resonate with audiences worldwide. “If the film does not connect in the West, I will consider it a personal failure,” he said. Comparing the epic to Hollywood hits like Avatar and Gladiator shows the high stakes and massive ambition behind the project.

Director Nitesh Tiwari thinks the story's feelings are something everyone can relate to. He believes people will feel connected to the characters and their experiences, no matter if they know the original tale or not. The movie tries to mix traditional values with a story that can be understood by people around the world, while still keeping the core of the Indian story strong.

Some fans are concerned that trying to please everyone might make the story lose its deep cultural meaning. Many feel that the Ramayana should stay true to its roots while still being shared with a global audience. As the movie gains more attention, people are looking forward to seeing if this classic can offer a big, exciting story that respects the original while also making sense to people everywhere.
