2 Emotional Posters of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram in 'Ramayan' Revealed
The promotional campaign for Nitesh Tiwari's ambitious mythological magnum opus Ramayan, produced by Namit Malhotra, has struck a deep emotional chord with audiences following the release of two character posters highlighting Ranbir Kapoor's portrayal of Lord Ram. Arriving ahead of the cinematic spectacle's scheduled theatrical debut on Diwali next month, the newly unveiled creatives transition the visual narrative from grandeur to raw filial devotion and sorrow. The release follows recent character reveals including veteran actor Arun Govil as King Dasharatha, Lara Dutta as Queen Kaikeyi, and Sheeba Chaddha as Manthara, offering audiences a closer look at the intricate familial dynamics that trigger the epic's central journey into exile.
Filial Bond and Final Farewell: A Father Bound by Promise, a Son by Duty
The first poster captures a tender yet tragic moment between father and son inside the royal court of Ayodhya, showing King Dasharatha placing a benevolent hand of blessing on Lord Ram, who kneels reverently before his father. This visual encapsulates the tragic moral dilemma at the heart of the lore—a sovereign bound by an inviolable boon and an obedient son steadfast in his dharma, unaware that their embrace marks their final encounter on earth. The second poster deepens the emotional weight by depicting Lord Ram standing waist-deep in serene river currents, surrounded by dense forest greenery, as he solemnly performs the sacred ritual of immersing his late father's ashes. Accompanied by the poignant caption, "A father bound by a promise. A son bound by duty. No one knew that this farewell would be their last farewell," the image highlights the silent grief and unwavering resilience defining Ram's exile.
