The filming of Nitesh Tiwari’s long-awaited ‘Ramayana’ starring Ranbir Kapoor as Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita, has been halted.
Since the departure of the previous co-producer, Madhu Mantena, the film was believed to be receiving a fresh approach. However, at Mantena’s request, the filming process has been halted until he is adequately compensated.
According to Mid-Day, the mythological film has been halted due to a copyright offense. Despite a brief continuation of filming following the notice, shooting has been finally suspended since last week. A legal settlement is necessary before the project can proceed.
Mid-Day has also reported that, despite the ongoing halt, the film is still in effect. Shooting for the project is anticipated to recommence in three weeks, awaiting the settlement of date-related issues.
Ranbir Kapoor and the costar Sunny Deol already have busy schedules with their other upcoming films. As a result, adjustments to the shooting schedule will be made to accommodate their amenability.
Apart from Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, the movie also features Lara Dutta as Kaikeyi, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Sheeba Chaddha as Manthara.
Moreover, this movie has made Ranbir Kapoor the richest actor as per a Bollywood Hungama report, the budget of the film “is close to ₹835 crore”.
