More about the star cast of Ramayana

For those who don't know, the ensemble cast includes Sunny Deol as 'Lord Hanuman', a television actor, and Ravie Dubey, who is also making a huge mark with his role as 'Lakshman', the younger brother of 'Lord Ram', in the film. The project promises a big blend of top-tier talents. Composers Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman have joined hands for the film's music. Stunt coordinators Terry Notary and Guy Norris are also choreographing the action sequences. Talking about film's grand budget, a source close to the producer revealed the film's cost, which is around Rs. 1600 crores. The source said:

"While Ramayana 1 is being made on a budget of Rs 900 crore, the second part of Ramayana has a cost of Rs 700 crore. The reason for the reduction in budget for part two is a result of a large investment in asset and world creation for part one, leaving just the action sequences for the second instalment. The characters built and designed alongside the set pieces will continue to be a part of the second instalment."

The source further mentioned that the entire team is confident in their ability to recover the investment and generate high profits, driven by their single goal of reaching a global audience. It is the reason they have worked hard on every detail to turn it into a global project with stunning visuals.
