Filming Wraps on Epic Adaptation of Ramayana
Shooting for Nitesh Tiwari's much-awaited Ramayana: Part 1 officially wrapped on June 30, 2025. The atmosphere on set was thick with emotion as actors Ranbir Kapoor and Ravi Dubey filmed their final scene together. Ranbir, taking on the role of Lord Ram, and Ravi, playing Lakshman, marked the end of their journey with a heartfelt embrace in front of the entire crew. After the cameras stopped rolling, a cake-cutting celebration brought together the team to reminisce about the months of hard work and long days that brought this larger-than-life tale to screen.
The emotional energy on set was captured in several videos that made their way online, showing both Ranbir and director Nitesh Tiwari addressing the cast and crew. People who watched the footage noticed how Ranbir, usually reserved, seemed genuinely moved, making it clear just how much this project meant to him.
Anticipation Builds: First Official Glimpse and Star Lineup
The official first-look teaser is scheduled to drop on July 3, 2025, and fans are already counting down the days. Even before its release, whispers and blurry leaked photos from the massive sets have only built up excitement—and, honestly, some wild speculation. Despite all the fan chatter online, the team is keeping tight lips on plot details and hasn’t allowed any major stills or trailers to go public.
The movie is aiming for a Diwali 2026 release, which means the buzz isn’t going to die down anytime soon. The film’s cast is seriously star-studded. Ranbir Kapoor stepping into the role of Ram instantly piqued everyone’s interest; he’s no stranger to high-pressure roles, but this one could be a career-definer. Ravi Dubey is generating just as much conversation. Known until now for his work on television, Dubey’s transition from engineer to a prominent film role as Lakshman is the sort of leap most actors can only dream about.
Then there’s Yash, who’s set to bring Ravana to life. The Kannada actor already has a massive following thanks to his past hits, and the internet is ready to erupt with every morsel of his epic villain look. Sargun Mehta, another name thrown around in rumors, hasn’t had her role revealed yet, only stoking more curiosity.
Director Nitesh Tiwari hasn’t shied away from hyping up the scope of this film. In his wrap party speech, he talked about the level of detail poured into set design, costumes, and action scenes—making it clear he’s going all-in to do justice to the source material. Early teaser posters have already sent fans into a frenzy, hinting at grand visual effects and a scale of storytelling that matches the epic roots.
If the excitement at the wrap party and the online buzz are anything to go by, Ramayana: Part 1 is shaping up to be a cultural event as much as a movie release, and the wait for the first official footage is almost over. July 3rd can’t come soon enough.
