Ramayana budget is Rs 4000 crore: Namit Malhotra calls Ranbir Kapoor, Yash starrer 'Greatest epic'
Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is making buzz for its grandeur, scale, exceptional star cast, and massive production budget. Contrary to all the speculations about its budget, Producer Namit Malhotra has broken his silence and revealed how much he is investing in it. In a recent podcast with Prakhar Gupta, Namit Malhotra talked about how Ramayana is his lifetime project. When he was quizzed about its production cost, he revealed it to be more than Rs 4000 crores for both the installments together. The producer said, 'Budget-wise, it was like…everybody thought I'm a lunatic because no Indian film by a long distance comes close to it. To put it simply, it will be like 500 million dollars by the time we are done on both films put together- Part One and Part Two, which is over Rs 4000 crores.' Namit went on to add, 'I say it like we are making the largest film in the world for the greatest story, the greatest epic that the world should see.' He further expressed that he still believes that he is producing a big movie at a cheap cost, when compared to Hollywood movies. 'And I still think it's cheaper than some of the big Hollywood films. So I think we're making a bigger film at a lower cost. For me, it's not a money-driven thing, honestly,' added Namit Malhotra. About Ramayana Cast and Crew For the unversed, Ramayana is a two-part cinematic spectacle that stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Mata Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, Yash as Ravana, and many other incredibly talented actors. The movie is being directed by Nitesh Tiwari, who previously helmed Dangal and Chhichhore. The background score of Ramayana is composed by music legends Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman. The makers are in talks with a Hollywood studio to distribute the movie across the world.

After a small break, she would again shoot from 2 pm to 6 pm, with the final session from 7 pm to 12 am..'She had great popularity in Tamil Nadu. Even today, when someone walks stylishly, people associate it with Saroja Devi's walk,' he said..'Saroja Devi was someone who acted alongside all super stars of India. Especially her movies with MGR in Tamil and with Rajkumar in Kannada are unforgettable,' he shared. In 'Puttamalli' (1995), Malashri and Saroja Devi appeared on screen together. Malashri described the moment as 'a dream come true'. 'She was a real lady superstar. I used to be a big fan when I was young and would try all her dance movements and expressions,' she added. .The two then went on to become close friends. 'Sitting with her is always a learning experience. She would share about her experiences from shooting back in her days, about make-up, costumes, shooting timings… She would always talk about how having passion for cinema is important,' Malashri recalled. .'She had an aura. When she walked into the room, all eyes moved to her. Saroja Devi also had a unique walking style. Another thing I admired about her is that she had a new look in every movie'. .'Talking to her was like reminiscing about the history of south Indian film industry,' said senior journalist Pratibha Nandakumar, who wrote a biography of the actor for Sudha weekly, DH's sister publication. .'The kind of characters she played, the actors she acted with, the directors, production houses, it was an amazing experience to listen to her. She is the only one who has received Dr Rajkumar award in Karnataka, NTR award in Andhra Pradesh and MGR award in Tamil Nadu. This cannot be repeated,' she said. .'Nadodi Mannan' to 'Arasa Kattalai': The iconic MGR-Saroja Devi then decided to publish a book about Saroja Devi and again met her for close to a month to document the events after the initial publication in recalled a huge corridor-like walk-in wardrobe in the actor's house in Malleswaram..'All her saris with their matching petticoats and blouses were neatly hung.

The Tamil people are very fond of Saroja Devi. Just imagine, people from Kannada, Tamil and Telugu, each one claiming her to be theirs. I find that very fascinating. You don't find that kind of stardom anymore,' she shared. .'She was a true legend. She was also intelligent about her finances and lived like a queen till the end,' Pratibha concluded. .Actor-politician Sumalatha Ambareesh, speaking to the media, said she will 'miss the affectionate attitude of Saroja Devi'..'She was undeniably a big star, but never carried the air of her popularity.
