Interest in Ranbir Kapoor's film 'Ramayana' is being felt not only in India but also in neighboring Pakistan. A video from Karachi has attracted public attention, showcasing people's excitement about the upcoming release of this large-scale movie directed by Nitish Tiwari.
In the presented video, residents of Karachi express support for Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Nitish Tiwari, while also noting their readiness for the film's screening. Some people have even placed 'Ramayana' posters in local temples, expressing hope for the film's great success at the box office and potential Oscar recognition.
In the film, Nitish Tiwari's version features Ranbir Kapoor playing the role of Lord Rama, with Sai Pallavi embodying Sita. Yash plays the role of Ravana. The production is handled by Namit Malhotra, and this project is considered one of the major initiatives of Indian cinema.
Due to its grandeur, star cast, and mythological plot, the film is already generating much discussion among viewers. The video from Karachi has only amplified this interest, as people express hopes not only for commercial success but also for the film's recognition at the 'Oscar' level.
A natural question arises regarding the possibility of Pakistani audiences watching the film in theaters. Due to the political and military tensions between India and Pakistan, the film business of both countries is affected by this tension, which has impacted the releases of Indian films in Pakistan.
At present, it is difficult to give a definitive answer on whether 'Ramayana' will be officially released in Pakistan. Despite the enthusiasm in Karachi, no official confirmation of its theatrical screening there has been received. If the film receives permission to be shown, it will be interesting to observe the reaction of the Pakistani audience.
Previously, there have been interesting reports in Pakistan about popular Indian films. For instance, this year saw discussions about the popularity of a supposedly pirated version of Ranvir Singh's film 'Dhurandar' and its million downloads. However, there is a significant difference between viewing through pirate channels and an official theater screening.
It is planned that 'Ramayana' will be released in two parts. The first part is scheduled to appear in theaters on November 5, 2026. Initially, the second part was expected to be released during Diwali next year, but there are reports of its release being postponed until 2028. Official confirmation of the second part's release date is still awaited.
The discussion about the film intensified after news broke that 'Ramayana Part 1' was screened in Los Angeles, USA, on October 27, 2026. Initial reviews are rated positively, with viewers praising the acting of Ranbir Kapoor and Yash.
Nevertheless, these reviews are preliminary, and the true assessment of the film will come after its theatrical release. Only the public's reaction, the plot, visual effects, and box office collections will show how well the film meets expectations.
Currently, there is immense interest in 'Ramayana' in India, and the video from Karachi has added wide recognition to this project. All attention is now focused on November 5, 2026, when this long-awaited film featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash will appear on the big screen.
