'Ramayan': When Hrithik Roshan was considered for Ravana, but he stepped away for THIS reason
There was a time when fans were buzzing with excitement at the thought of Hrithik Roshan stepping into the role of Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari 's ambitious 'Ramayan'. The idea of Hrithik as the mythic antagonist opposite Ranbir Kapoor 's Ram had created a frenzy, and rightly so. With his commanding screen presence and sharp acting chops, Hrithik seemed like a perfect fit for the larger-than-life part. But as it turns out, the casting plans were shifted. Why Hrithik Backed Out According to Bollywood Hungama, Hrithik Roshan loved the script and was keen on the scale of the project. However, playing a villain again, after recent intense roles, wasn't something he wanted to repeat immediately. Reportedly, Hrithik felt that fans still strongly connect with him as a hero. After multiple discussions with Nitesh Tiwari and the production team, Hrithik chose to step away from Ramayan. His exit, while amicable, left the makers in search of a new Ravana, someone who could match the scale and magnetism Hrithik would have brought. The search didn't take long. The team turned to Yash, the KGF superstar, who had the screen dominance and fan base to take on the challenge. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Adidas Three Shorts With 60% Discount, Limited Stock Available Original Adidas Shop Now Undo Yash, managed by the same agency as one of the producers, showed strong interest and said yes to the role.

Siddharth Anand Tweets Something Fun Amid Tara Rum Pum Comparisons To Brad Pitts F1
Mumbai : Filmmaker Siddharth Anand's directorial 'Tara Rum Pum', which was released in 2007, is remembered by fans to date. And now when Hollywood icon Brad Pitt's film 'F1' is doing wonders at the box office, Indian fans have surprisingly created memes, joking about how the international film is inspired by Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji-starrer 'Tara Rum Pum'. Seems like those memes caught Siddharth's attention as he on Tuesday dropped a post, calling 'Tara Rum Pum' a "lovely beast." 'Tara Rum Pum' follows the story of a race car driver, RV (Saif), and his wife Radhika (Rani), as they face life's highs and lows with their two children. TaRaRumPum you lovely beast ! — Siddharth Anand (@justSidAnand) July 1, 2025 Meanwhile, Siddharth is currently busy shooting for 'King', which stars Shah Rukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan and Suhana Khan among others. 'King' was supposed to be directed by Sujoy Ghosh earlier. However, Siddharth Anand, who directed SRK in 'Pathaan', later took over as the director. A few months ago, at an event in Dubai, SRK opened up about King, saying, "I'm not just shooting it here, I'm shooting it in Mumbai now when I go back in a couple of months. My director, who is Sidharth Anand, is very strict. He made Pathaan. So he is very strict. He said, 'Don't tell people about the film, what you are doing in it.' So I can't tell you but I can assure you it will entertain you, you will have fun. I've used many we have run out of Shah Rukh Khan as Shah Rukh Khan in King. That was a bit of a show-off." The film went on floors in Mumbai recently.
