Additionally, shooting on part 1 has wrapped up, with the team set to begin filming in August for part 2.

Meanwhile, a new report has shed light on the screentime that Yash as Ravana will have in Ramayana Part 1 and the news may disappoint fans of the KGF star who are excited to see him play the 'Demon King' in the adaptation of the Hindi epic. A report in TellyChakkar stated that Kannada superstar Yash, who portrays the mighty Ravana, will feature onscreen for not more than 15 minutes in Ramayana: Part One.

However, this limited appearance is entirely intentional and aligns with the narrative structure of the film, the report stated. The initial chapter of this epic saga focuses primarily on the journey of Ram, played by Ranbir Kapoor, alongside Sai Pallavi’s Sita and Ravie Dubey’s Lakshman, as they leave Ayodhya for their exile (vanvaas).

Though unconfirmed, fans had mixed reactions to the report about Yash's limited screentime in Ramayana's first installment, set to be out on Diwali 2026. "Becoz raavan has more impact in the second (sic)," commented one. Another one said "It's ok, in part 2 he will have more screen time, anyway he will be benefitted because he is one of the producers of the movie (sic)."

The film’s crew includes renowned international artists, including Oscar-winning composers Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman, who are collaborating on the score and the songs. The action sequences are choreographed by Hollywood stunt veterans Terry Notary and Guy Norris, and the film’s visual world is being shaped by production designers Ravi Bansal of Dune 2 fame and Ramsey Avery as Captain America.
