In 2023, the big-budget film Adipurush – based on the mythological epic Ramayana – hit the theatres. Despite having a stellar cast and a gripping storyline, the film failed to perform at the box office due to its poor visual effects. Much time has passed since the development and now, filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari has decided to depict Ramayana in his own style. Ranbir Kapoor is likely to play the lead role in Tiwari’s depiction of the saga. And now, fresh reports suggest that TV actress Indira Krishnan will play the role of Ranbir Kapoor’s mother in the film.
