Ranbir Kapoor and Yash starrer Ramayana has emerged as one of the most anticipated films of 2026, with its release slated for Diwali this year. Amid the mounting excitement and speculation surrounding the project, the latest reports suggest that the filmmakers may share new updates as early as March.

The cast and crew of Nitesh Tiwari's ambitious cinematic venture are currently busy with the shoot. Following the release of the first look featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, the makers have not unveiled any new promotional material or posters.

According to a report by CineInfinity and ongoing speculation across social media, fans can expect the eagerly awaited first look to drop on Ram Navami. Sources indicate that the makers will launch the first look of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Yash as Ravana on March 27. Alongside this, the team is expected to tease glimpses of the film’s grand visual scale, highlighting its epic cinematic treatment.

Earlier, rumours had suggested that some promotional material might be released as early as February 15, coinciding with Mahashivratri. However, none of these reports have been officially confirmed by the film’s makers or the actors involved.

Produced by Namit Malhotra, Ramayana features Ranbir Kapoor as Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana, with Ravi Dubey portraying Lakshman. The film also boasts an ensemble cast with Sunny Deol, Rakul Preet Singh, Lara Dutta, and several others in pivotal roles.

Reports indicate that the VFX technology employed in Ramayana is on par with the high-end visual effects used in the Hollywood Avatar franchise, promising a visually spectacular cinematic experience.

As per official announcements, Ramayana Part 1 is scheduled for a Diwali 2026 release, while Part 2 is set to hit screens during Diwali 2027.
