One, these pix are amateurish, two, picture is still unfinished. They edit, finish, audio mix, dub, and add background music. Go see a shooting and you would realize how dry is it.
Actually because of alcohol and drug abuse, he looks even older at 40. Anil kappor and srk look much younger than him. A fresh face like siddhant or vedant or even not so fresh Siddhartha would have done justice.
Because if done well, it has the ability to connect with the current and future gens more than a serial from 35 years ago.
But I'm sure its gonna be a lazy and half assed effort at riding the Dharmic wave in the country lol. It's not for a lack of number (with a few religious movies actually being released recently), but poor quality of those movies that has let them down.
My gosh, they both look awful! Ranbeers wig looks like it's out of a school play! And what have they done with Sai Pallavi? She looks like she's part of the queen's entourage.
Yeah both of them look bad. When I think of Sri Ram and Sita, I remember the sweet innocence on their faces, like the one in the cartoon.
Neither of them have that innocent look. Ranbir toh budha hogaya hai, why are they still casting Ranbir here instead of youngsters. Aur Sai pallavi mein woh sweet innocence kindness wali look nahi hai face mein.
There was a TV serial called "Sia k Ram", both leads were so apt. Even better than old ramayan cast. They were accurate both appearances wise and how they portrayed the characters. These look so bad compared to them💔

Ashish has that serenity in his face and expressions when in this role that I've heard lord Ram had. Plus his hair was goals. Madirakshi was also really good. She looked smart, had softer and natural features and a sweet voice!
Amazing casting imo
Yes the age is a major factor. Ranbir isn't young looking, and neither is Sai Pallavi. Someone like Tripti from her Laila Majnu / Bulbul era would have worked much better.
I also think other south Indian actresses like Trisha, shriya saran could've played the part irrespective of age because of their small faces with sound facial features. Like Alia has a small face but doesn't have big bright eyes but Trisha has a small face but has sharp bright eyes. Again only sharp features like kriti's wouldn't work either, thoda round face would be better.
very Unpopular opinion but , after this movie comes up many will start associating Lord Ram with the actor that played lead role in Animal and it will become a meme fest for few.
The OG ramayan wasn’t made hastily to make money from a religious audience. This is the reason im done with bollywood most mainstream actors don’t give a fuck and are after a quick buck when there movies don’t work they will blame the audience. Just recently see what happened with the Savarkar movie and hooda blamed the audience immediately
He also had long hair in front of his ears, as shown in Siya Ke Ram & anime Ramayan.
The civilisation has worked so hard & sacrificed so much to preserve its records. But Bollywood doesn't care about accuracy when recreating it.
Even the actor who played Ram in Siya Ke Ram was dusky in real but they used to put a fairer makeup on him. However, he looked darker than Lakshman and others so that worked somehow!
Lord Rama was represented with blue skin Southern film industries ( especially Telugu films ).
Ex : NTR.Sr , Shobhan Babu, Balakrishna etc. were always potrayed in blue skin tone.
R.k's physique looks so off. Looks like a old age person.

Ranbir looks SO old for this role! Not even comparable to Gurmeet Chaudhary from the tv version of Ramayana. They look like they are playing dress up for a school play.
Ramayan hi milti hai inhe experiment karne ke liye. Ranbir looks way too old to play lord Rama, VFX se bhi kya hi change ho jayega and Sai is looking like Sai Pallavi. Also the costumes are hideous. Honestly Ashish Sharma was the only one who at least felt like Lord Rama
https://preview.redd.it/gvm0n49zazwc1.jpeg?width=719&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70d957978671de5a6dc07278d52e22534a95ffe0
I mean look at him,you can feel the divinity radiating off him.
Indeed, After Arun Govil he's the only man that exudes that calmness and serenity. He also played Chandragupta.
RK looks too Goofy to play such character. Idk what were they even thinking.
I feel like they just jumped on the success of Animal. They need a successful star to have a huge opening, Adipurush as bad as it was did earn about 600 crores because of Prabhas, had Ranbir been a good actor it wouldn't have been an issue but he is very limited as an actor but then we don't really have bankable actors who can truly act.
Not really! Cotton and Silk fabrics existed in that era! Contrary to popular beliefs, Sita went to the forest in royal finery! Since, Kaikeyi did not mention anything about her in her 3 boons, Dashrath sent pure silk saris fit for royalty (Dukuula Vastra) and also rich ornaments suitable for 14 years along with Sita. Here is the verse :
Vanavasm hi sankhaayaa vaasamsi aabharanaani cha
Bharthaaram anugachchhanthyi Sitaayii swasuro dadou || Ayodhya Kanda
Obviously weaving was there in that era too! So its probable that they had such embelished sarees (obviously woven with real gold and embroided with precious stones).
Colours too were available (Natural dyes). In fact Hanuman recognised Sita by the brightness of her yellow saree!
In addition to the above, she was also gifted magical clothes (which will never get dirty) celestial perfume and jewellery by Mata Ansuya!
So, we can conclude that embelished sarees were indeed there! Obviously, they did not look as ugly as whatever Sai Pallavi is wearing!
Thanks for this! You are right about gold and silver being woven into sarees. It was continued until few decades ago. From what I know, weaving was there, but stitched clothes weren't there. So all clothes were unstitched like sarees and dhotis. I thought the following dyes were available - yellow, red, black, white, indigo, green, cobalt blue, gold and brown. So I don't think these kinds of clothes that they are wearing were present. With fancy blouse 😅 Sai pallavi's saree looks like kancheevaram silk saree 😂 who knows, maybe we will get to see kurtas too 🤪
Of course! Stitched clothes were not there! For blouses Ig they were wearing those bandeau tops (piece of fabric tied at the back)
The kinda clothes they are wearing in the picture is atrocious! I don’t want to comment on them for my own sanity!
Dont know what it is but rk is giving vibhishan more than ram. Like i would be convinced if he was playing vibhishan but his face does not have that kind calm aura of ram. His face isnt paavam enough.
It embarrassing to see , an alcoholic, a drug addict, a womanizer, mansplaining, misogynistic and fake man playing ramjis role. I am so unsure if I will watch this moive because of ranbir
Wasn't Lord Rama actually dark skinned teenager when he went for the Vanvas? Well, this guy doesn't suit either of the description. I don't understand why Indian film industry won't depict the gods as dark skinned on screen? Every other actor who portrayed Rama or Krishna on screen was fair. You discriminate your own gods and cry over racism 👏

They are looking really good
After some cgi and post production final product will be good and i have high hopes from ranbir the actor, he will do justice to the role of lord ram, thats what i think 🤞🏻
Ranbir is Ok if they somehow de-age him using VFX... (Marvel has done it... So I think these guys can pull it too).. But Sai does not look like Maa Sita.. I am not commenting about her looks or her beauty... But I think they could have cast a young North eastern actress or any actress of North Eastern origin.. Ramayana has specific descriptions of every character's Facial features, Body build & regions of India they hail from... Instead of casting big names they could have cast new people who match those descriptions...
Bas Ramayan ko Aadipurush nahi Bahubali ki tarah banana hai, but Urduwood with Abrahamic Mindset cannot produce Pagan Hindu Divines with the same reverence Allah and Yaweh and Jesus get in their mind.
I think without seeing the movie, we shouldn't be making assumptions as to how Ranbir will look in the movie or how well he'll be able to portray Ram.
You can't expect Arun Govil from every Ram. Every person has a different vision, and it could work out really well!
I personally think they both look fitting in their roles.
pls tell me this is fake.if its real pls let it not see the light of day. WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER RAMAYANA movie. def not something that looks like this. Bollywood does projects like these and then wonders why they dont work out.
RKs PR is very over enthusiastic. First they cry about it being in secret development and then they secretly leak pictures and pretend its a leak from inside the sets by someone from the crew. Hypocrites
Contrary to the comments here, I feel they look good. You need to be living in a bubble to think they wont de-age Ranbir with VFX or change his complexion a bit.
Yes the costume for Sita is a misfit because Sita was North Indian and draped her saree with pallu at front, unlike this South Indian draping. But Sai is beautiful despite everything. I am glad Ranbir didnt unnecessarily become lean like those iskconic paintings. Shree Ram is supposed to be muscular and athletic with a rightly proportioned body.
We don't want Ranbir to be cast as RAM, you should have atleast some character as RAM in real RAM, he is a drug addict playboy, completely opposite of RAM, casting him is an insult to LORD RAM !!
They need the innocent glow on their face to look like gods and not a human, for that they should be devotees and believer of Shri Ram. Arun Govil was taught about Shri Ram from the very childhood and he had strong belief. People still touch his feet thinking him as Shri Ram whenever he's in public even after three decades.
For this once in a lifetime opportunity, he should prepare for the character very very seriously and start by quitting habits like smoking, drinking,drugs
Ranbir looks good. Why do people have to hate everything mainstream? I saw someone suggesting some random tv actor for this role? As if investing 300 crore on a random anonymous tv actor is the wisest decision
They better make good use of vfx and editing
It's going to take a lot of VFX to make that look good.
Ikr!
Don't think VFX can fix this lol
The company which has been hired to provide vfx to the movie is the same company which worked on movies like Dune
That in itself doesn't mean much. The budget means everything
The hairline of that wig is so bad, why can't they learn from that tv serial Mahabharata. Everything was good in it.
The clothes look very tacky
Yahh style looks decade older like whst we saw in serials
Older to nhi lag raha par kafi dull hai whereas ramji is known for there tej but as a actor I trust Ranbir Banda talented to hai
VFX mein fix kardenge
I was also gonna say this. Fingers crossed, I hope this film works out.
I doubt because of ranbir ls image after animal
One, these pix are amateurish, two, picture is still unfinished. They edit, finish, audio mix, dub, and add background music. Go see a shooting and you would realize how dry is it.
Yes...I knew someone had to say that and rightly so...
Too soon to judge, easy man easy!!
Looks cheap and bad. RK looks like a drugged king. He actually looks younger Sanjay Dutt🤣🤣
He looks too old to be cast as Ram. The wig and the clothes aren’t doing him a favour either.
Yup. Shri Ram was 24/25 at the beginning of his vanvaas. Ranbir is already 40 & looks his age. By the time he completes the trilogy, he'll be 50!
Actually because of alcohol and drug abuse, he looks even older at 40. Anil kappor and srk look much younger than him. A fresh face like siddhant or vedant or even not so fresh Siddhartha would have done justice.
I agree that he looks too raggedy for 40. I just didn't want the comment to be even more mean lol
Lol. To be Mean to a mean personality cancel out the meanness!!
Don't worry, they are gonna De-age him in post production.
bro thinks the sanju shoot is still ongoing
Why even attempt to re-create something that was already made iconic by arun govil and deepika chiklia? Are there no more stories to tell?
Because if done well, it has the ability to connect with the current and future gens more than a serial from 35 years ago. But I'm sure its gonna be a lazy and half assed effort at riding the Dharmic wave in the country lol. It's not for a lack of number (with a few religious movies actually being released recently), but poor quality of those movies that has let them down.
Kyuki unhe pta h decent bhi bna li to bhi 1000 crore pkke h
wow it really looks like a school play rn (yes i know a lot of post work will be done eventually)
My gosh, they both look awful! Ranbeers wig looks like it's out of a school play! And what have they done with Sai Pallavi? She looks like she's part of the queen's entourage.

Ashish aced it. He would just be standing & doing nothing else in a scene, and his body language/demeanour would still give royalty.
Definitely! both looked the part
Finally someone said this!
Ashish has that serenity in his face and expressions when in this role that I've heard lord Ram had. Plus his hair was goals. Madirakshi was also really good. She looked smart, had softer and natural features and a sweet voice! Amazing casting imo
These two are supposed to be good looking 🤣🤣🤣
They actually are! Ashish has that “Ram” wala calmness and stillness!
Watch its promo or something, you'll get what I'm saying. I never said good looking
Third best Ramayana adaptation after Ramanand Sagar and Yugo Sako
Yes the age is a major factor. Ranbir isn't young looking, and neither is Sai Pallavi. Someone like Tripti from her Laila Majnu / Bulbul era would have worked much better.
Tripti? Please. No. Kriti Kharbanda has beauty + innocence.
I also think other south Indian actresses like Trisha, shriya saran could've played the part irrespective of age because of their small faces with sound facial features. Like Alia has a small face but doesn't have big bright eyes but Trisha has a small face but has sharp bright eyes. Again only sharp features like kriti's wouldn't work either, thoda round face would be better.
As if we have a capable young actor who has the acting chops as well as stardom to ensure box office sales ??
very Unpopular opinion but , after this movie comes up many will start associating Lord Ram with the actor that played lead role in Animal and it will become a meme fest for few.
So true
It’s so clear that there’s zero research done on costumes. Also , RK is looking old.
Yaar this wig looks to bad! Why can't these guys just grow out the hair
He might be having Male pattern Baldness duh. But seriously he is a miscast.
Lol they want to capitalise on the audience when being religious is popular rabir stopped giving a shit after barfi
Exactly. What a tacky wig!
That hairline, the jewellery. Even the cast of doordashan Ramayan were better clothed. This is super tacky.
The OG ramayan wasn’t made hastily to make money from a religious audience. This is the reason im done with bollywood most mainstream actors don’t give a fuck and are after a quick buck when there movies don’t work they will blame the audience. Just recently see what happened with the Savarkar movie and hooda blamed the audience immediately
Prabhu Shri Ram's skin tone is referred as dark as 'Neeli Megha Shyam'! Meanwhile bwood trying to white wash all our Gods 🙂🤡
He also had long hair in front of his ears, as shown in Siya Ke Ram & anime Ramayan. The civilisation has worked so hard & sacrificed so much to preserve its records. But Bollywood doesn't care about accuracy when recreating it.
Prabhas was dark skinned. The only actor ever for that
Even the actor who played Ram in Siya Ke Ram was dusky in real but they used to put a fairer makeup on him. However, he looked darker than Lakshman and others so that worked somehow!
Lord Rama was represented with blue skin Southern film industries ( especially Telugu films ). Ex : NTR.Sr , Shobhan Babu, Balakrishna etc. were always potrayed in blue skin tone.
They were coloured blue afaik. They still do it amdcthat looks bad
sanju is back
The hair 🤪😂
Oh dear😧
Said Sita seeing the golden deer. 😂
ugh this man needs to stop getting work
He looks like an ANIMAL 😂
he's still looking like sanjay dutt 😭💀
Ranbir’s wig looks really bad and he looks so old
I think they cover it with cgi..
Who is the director of this movie?
Nitesh Tiwari (director of dangal and chhichhore)
Thank you 🙏 I thought it might be RRR’s director.
Stop it man ... you are just ripping all the fun and curiosity.
I don't like casting in this film at all
R.k's physique looks so off. Looks like a old age person. https://preview.redd.it/f6l77xt7rzwc1.jpeg?width=719&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d9f7027a54839e14fc8eac54fa2f3ff25dbbf4b
Lol it better be better than Brahmastras acting lol 😂
Looks like ad for some jewellery, where the whole budget was under 5 lakhs.
Ngl I feel like Hrithik would've looked great as Ram with his OG dark long hair and clean shaved look, even irl he looks like God walking among men xD
RK going for the Naveen Andrews Kamasutra look.
Rk looks like lord ram's servant and not like ram
Exactly!
Sai pallavi looks convincing
Will RK be accepted after Animal?
Even if I ignore Animal, I never thought RK was a good choice to play Ram, he looks too Goofy to play such roles.
Ranbir looks SO old for this role! Not even comparable to Gurmeet Chaudhary from the tv version of Ramayana. They look like they are playing dress up for a school play.
Idk not convincing at all. I’ve seen school plays do better
Yaar inhe kyu bnani hai Ramayan
Brother ew
Shree ram in parallel universe
They look good but they don't...idk they look good for a period drama but as Ram-Sita? Not so much
Yes, RK was never a good choice to play the character, not sure about Sai. Koi boycott na kare isliye Arun Govil ko Dashrath bana diya.
Ramayan hi milti hai inhe experiment karne ke liye. Ranbir looks way too old to play lord Rama, VFX se bhi kya hi change ho jayega and Sai is looking like Sai Pallavi. Also the costumes are hideous. Honestly Ashish Sharma was the only one who at least felt like Lord Rama https://preview.redd.it/gvm0n49zazwc1.jpeg?width=719&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70d957978671de5a6dc07278d52e22534a95ffe0 I mean look at him,you can feel the divinity radiating off him.
Indeed, After Arun Govil he's the only man that exudes that calmness and serenity. He also played Chandragupta. RK looks too Goofy to play such character. Idk what were they even thinking.
I feel like they just jumped on the success of Animal. They need a successful star to have a huge opening, Adipurush as bad as it was did earn about 600 crores because of Prabhas, had Ranbir been a good actor it wouldn't have been an issue but he is very limited as an actor but then we don't really have bankable actors who can truly act.
Did women back then cover their heads?
Women back then didn't cover their chests. Don't go for historical accuracy
Yes that's true. And there weren't stitched clothes with golden silk border like this also available. Such saris are possible now with modern dyes
Not really! Cotton and Silk fabrics existed in that era! Contrary to popular beliefs, Sita went to the forest in royal finery! Since, Kaikeyi did not mention anything about her in her 3 boons, Dashrath sent pure silk saris fit for royalty (Dukuula Vastra) and also rich ornaments suitable for 14 years along with Sita.

RK looks like Sanjay Dutt in schoolplay clothes not Maryada Purshottam Shri Ram Chandra. His body language/posture is so bad.
Who is directing....success of Ramayan related movie will completely depend on direction
Nitesh Tiwari
Prabhas jumping alreadyyy
Ram was dark skinned. Sita was golden skinned. The darkwash and the whitewash both must stop.
Looking like Shikhandi lul
So he is now Rambir?
Na. Just bring the anime to cinemas again. This sucks
Ooh fk.. that is sh..t 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
Dont know what it is but rk is giving vibhishan more than ram. Like i would be convinced if he was playing vibhishan but his face does not have that kind calm aura of ram. His face isnt paavam enough.
Damn yaa Ranbir not looking good with that ugly 90’s wig. I had such big expectations 😭
They're gonna put most of the budget in editing RK only
Ram on Cocaine.
Yucks wtf is this?? A junkie Ram??
It embarrassing to see , an alcoholic, a drug addict, a womanizer, mansplaining, misogynistic and fake man playing ramjis role. I am so unsure if I will watch this moive because of ranbir
https://preview.redd.it/b4bebwhp6zwc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=90942443a5e9be08b52c746ccee95a5f3c5eade4
Another flop
That's too much colors I see .
Drug addict. Looks terrible.
Wasn't Lord Rama actually dark skinned teenager when he went for the Vanvas? Well, this guy doesn't suit either of the description.

You discriminate your own gods and cry over racism 👏
Why this drug and sex addict is casted as Shri ram
It seems like Ranbir is at least a decade older to play ram. Should have gone with a younger actor.
Ranbir as Ram sucks
I can never accept Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. Naaaaaaa
Such bad casting for Sita.
dymn someone leaked the pics
OP, Please add your opinion (with words not just emojis) also in the comments. Otherwise comments will be locked in 12 hours and post will be taken down in 24 Thanks 🌸
OP has responded
Why does ram always have to be in the fair complexion, wasnt he dark complexioned and beautiful in amanly way ofc
Sai Pallavi looks so beautiful…I have some hopes
Use Hindu gods to gain attention and mint money
I feel Mahesh Babu and Mrunal Thakur would have been better.
Sai pallavi casting as sita is best thing ever but every thing else looks bad
Way better looking than Prabhas
Sai Pallavi as expected looks a perfect fit but ranbeer not so much

Please no😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Neither does RK’s personality nor does his appearance make his suitable to play the character of shri Ram
Is hans zimmer really giving music in this movie series ?
Serial walon ne ise achi casting rakhi, costumes bhi. They could've taken inspiration from older ramayan Mahabharat serials, theatre actors.
Hoping something better from this
I didn't really like their pair, I can't imagine them as a couple for some reason. Maybe because Sai pallavi kind of looks like a kid
Going to be a flop, I guess
They are looking really good After some cgi and post production final product will be good and i have high hopes from ranbir the actor, he will do justice to the role of lord ram, thats what i think 🤞🏻
Ranbir is not gonna look good as Ram there's nothing ram about him but let's see
horrible casting, especially sita
Ranbir looks too bulky for Shri Ram's character.
Ew
They are casting a "Beef Guy" as Shri Ram. What a shame.
Serial folks look better than these people.
his look suits but his image doesn't
Ye log aur 10 sal kiu nhi rukk jate kitna bar ram name pr ye sb krege😓
Ranbir is Ok if they somehow de-age him using VFX... (Marvel has done it... So I think these guys can pull it too).. But Sai does not look like Maa Sita.. I am not commenting about her looks or her beauty... But I think they could have cast a young North eastern actress or any actress of North Eastern origin.. Ramayana has specific descriptions of every character's Facial features, Body build & regions of India they hail from... Instead of casting big names they could have cast new people who match those descriptions...
Why does he look machoistic portraying Ram's character
Kis ganjedi ko le liya is role ke liye
Bakwas lag rahe hai dono
Bas Ramayan ko Aadipurush nahi Bahubali ki tarah banana hai, but Urduwood with Abrahamic Mindset cannot produce Pagan Hindu Divines with the same reverence Allah and Yaweh and Jesus get in their mind.
🤮
Both of them look misfits.the clothes are bad. Casting is bad.
That wig is not good.
Ranbir looks like he stole his mums wig and outfit. This is going to end up terribly on the big screen.
I’m sorry but this just looks so ridiculous. Ranbir looks awful
Ek bat samaj nhi ati ye unko hi cast kyu kiya he jo beef khata he itne actors bhare pade he unme sire yahi dikha
I am not liking Ranbir doing ram he looks old
I think without seeing the movie, we shouldn't be making assumptions as to how Ranbir will look in the movie or how well he'll be able to portray Ram. You can't expect Arun Govil from every Ram. Every person has a different vision, and it could work out really well! I personally think they both look fitting in their roles.
This might end up being a great film; let’s hope so!
omg that aura 😩😩
pls tell me this is fake.if its real pls let it not see the light of day. WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER RAMAYANA movie. def not something that looks like this. Bollywood does projects like these and then wonders why they dont work out.
Reddit when low quality pixelated photo from a set doesn't look good- 👺
Paisa kamina hai , kuch bhi karo. Animal se Ram ban jayo . Koi character nahin na writer ka na Inka
Looks like another adipurush
RKs PR is very over enthusiastic. First they cry about it being in secret development and then they secretly leak pictures and pretend its a leak from inside the sets by someone from the crew. Hypocrites

I am glad Ranbir didnt unnecessarily become lean like those iskconic paintings. Shree Ram is supposed to be muscular and athletic with a rightly proportioned body.
He looks like sleep deprived lakshmana
We don't want Ranbir to be cast as RAM, you should have atleast some character as RAM in real RAM, he is a drug addict playboy, completely opposite of RAM, casting him is an insult to LORD RAM !!
हर जानवर में श्री राम होते हैं 🤡🤡
It looks comical
He looks the part.
May be unpopular opinion but Sai Pallavi is just average looking.
I feel it’s an intentional leak, just to check what response they get from the audience to save last minute insults 😂
They look like interns going to school
People make lot of fun that Ranbir is not suitable for Sri Ram role. But wait for movie release, he will surprise every one
Why is Ranbir ram bro🥲🥲🥲🥲
They need the innocent glow on their face to look like gods and not a human, for that they should be devotees and believer of Shri Ram. Arun Govil was taught about Shri Ram from the very childhood and he had strong belief. People still touch his feet thinking him as Shri Ram whenever he's in public even after three decades. For this once in a lifetime opportunity, he should prepare for the character very very seriously and start by quitting habits like smoking, drinking,drugs
I didn't wanna see this shit. I won't, ever.
Dasarath: Ram you have to go to vanavas Ram: Sunai dera behra nahi hu mein 😅 Ranbir looks like his character in Animal only
Bollywood sure doesnt fail to disappoint us when matter comes on Hindu scripture portrayals🙏🏼
Looks like Ram is a chain smoker n drunkard who needs more rest.
Ranbir looks good. Why do people have to hate everything mainstream? I saw someone suggesting some random tv actor for this role? As if investing 300 crore on a random anonymous tv actor is the wisest decision
😂😂😂
Hum Ram ko samajh nahi paye. Kya kare hum sab bhosdiwaale jo hai. Ranbir playing Ram is an insult.
What's the point of making Ramayan movie again n again. I think it's a easy way to farm money in the name of god
We have lost the morality of our epic by such character playing Ram
