CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Ranbir Kapoor explains why he initially doubted playing Lord Ram
Mumbai. Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor is currently in the news over his upcoming film Ramayana. Ranbir, who plays Lord Shri Ram in the film, has revealed that when he was first offered the role, he felt he was not worthy of it. He wondered whether he would be able to do justice to a character linked to the faith of crores of people.
Ranbir Kapoor said playing Lord Shri Ram was a major responsibility. He said that, in the beginning, the thought of portraying Lord Shri Ram brought him more responsibility and hesitation than excitement. He felt this was not merely an opportunity to act in a film, but a challenge to present on screen a great character connected with Indian culture and faith.
According to the actor, one major reason behind accepting the role was also the opportunity to understand the Ramayana and Indian culture more deeply. He expressed gratitude to the artistes associated with the film and the entire team, and said everyone had worked on the project with love, humility and a positive spirit.
Ranbir has earlier also made it clear that the role of Lord Shri Ram is not like an ordinary film character for him. He said Shri Ram’s greatest strength was not only his bow, but his capacity to forgive. According to him, to understand this character, it is necessary to absorb his simplicity, faith and moral values.
Ranbir also said his aim was not only to prove himself worthy of the role, but to remain honest to the faith that audiences place in the story of the Ramayana and its characters. His approach makes it clear that he wants to focus not just on the character’s external appearance, but also on its emotional and spiritual aspects.
Big stars will be seen in director Nitesh Tiwari’s film Ramayana. Ranbir Kapoor will be seen as Lord Shri Ram, Sai Pallavi as Mata Sita, Yash as Ravana and Ravi Dubey as Lakshman. As part of the film’s promotional campaign, information has continued to emerge about its making, the experiences of the cast and the preparation for the characters.
There is considerable curiosity among audiences about the film. In this large cinematic project based on the mythological tale, the artistes also face the challenge of preserving the cultural and emotional significance of the story. Ranbir’s statement has once again intensified discussion about the perspective from which he will present the character of Lord Shri Ram on screen.
