The disastrous results of recent films on mythology have not deterred producers and directors from dreaming of making more such films. Gunasekhar’s Shaakuntalam and Om Raut’s Adipurush have become the biggest villains in recent times. But a Bollywood producer is determined to bring another movie on Ramayanam.
Producer Madhu Manthena is planning to make a movie based on Ramayana in three parts with Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. The team also approached Alia Bhatt for the role of Sita and KGF Yash for the role of Ravana.
In the latest update, we heard that Alia Bhatt has said no to the mythological drama. Many have started wondering why she turned down the offer when she could star in an eternal story with her husband. The main reason for rejecting the offer seems to be her busy schedule. Alia Bhatt’s calendar is full and she is not willing to adjust the time for Ramayana.
Directors Nitesh Tiwari and Ravi Udayabar failed to convince her and on the other hand, Yash was not too keen to be a part of the film. It is heard that the makers have decided to make a fantastic movie on Ramayana with Rs.100 Crores. Instead of using motion capture technology, they wanted to make this Ramayana with real visual effects.
More importantly, it is heard that they are planning not to repeat the mistakes Om Raut made for Adipurush. For now, since Alia Bhatt turned down the offer, the makers are looking at Mrinal Tagore and Kiara Advani for the role.
