Directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios and eight-time Academy Award-winning VFX studio DNEG, in association with Yash's Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana: Part One will release worldwide on Diwali 2026.
Yash said only a person like Namit can have the "passion, dedication, determination and madness" required to realise a grand vision like Ramayana.
Every time I met him, he always said, 'We all are doing so much and Indians have done so much, but we should do something for our Indian film industry and I want to do it.
I want our country to be placed at that level and that's the day I am going to be happy.'
At the event, Ranbir also described Ramayana as a special film.

"As an Indian, I am telling you, we need to protect this guy. It's our responsibility because this man was comfortably doing business in LA. Every time I met him, he always said, 'We all are doing so much and Indians have done so much, but we should do something for our Indian film industry and I want to do it. I am getting Oscars, but I am not happy. I want our country to be placed at that level and that's the day I am going to be happy.' This is what he told me."
At the event, Ranbir also described Ramayana as a special film.
