But something else also caught everyone's attention.
Soon after Ramayana's teaser dropped, T-Series, the production house behind 'Adipurush', re-uploaded the Jai Shri Ram song from their 2023 film on YouTube. This move sparked criticism online, with many questioning the timing. Some fans felt that T-Series was trying to ride the wave of attention Ramayana was getting, especially since Adipurush—also based on the Ramayana—faced major backlash when it was released.
On Reddit, one user wrote, 'I've got to give it to Bhushan for milking every opportunity to get some money back on his investment in Adipurush.' Another said, 'The timing is unreal—just as the Ramayana teaser released. Pre-planned?' Many felt it looked like a reaction driven by jealousy. One comment read, 'Why do they want to remind people of this again?'
For those not in the know, 'Adipurush' got a lot of flak for its content, dialogues and not doing justice to 'Ramayana'. Not to mention, the poor VFX of the film also wasn't hard to miss. The film starred
as Lord Rama, Kriti Sanon as Sita, and Saif Ali Khan as Ravana.
As per reports, it was mounted on a huge budget of Rs 550 crore and suffered a huge loss.
.
Naturally, comparisons between the two films started pouring in. Viewers praised the teaser of Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, calling it 'better than the entirety of Adipurush.' Many admired the 'Hollywood-level VFX' and even joked that 'Adipurush' director Om Raut should take notes.
On the other hand, Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, looks to be on a completely different level. With Ranbir as Lord Rama, Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman, the film also boasts music by Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman. The teaser alone has raised expectations sky-high. The film will release in two parts—Part 1 in Diwali 2026, and Part 2 in Diwali 2027.

Abhishek Bachchan says daughter Aaradhya is turning into a wonderful lady because of wife Aishwarya Rai: ‘She does the heavy lifting…'
Abhishek Bachchan is currently on a promotional spree. He has been promoting his film Kaalidhar Laapata that released on Zee 5 on July 4. Apart from talking about the film, he has been giving a lot of insights about his family, daughter Aaradhya and wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan that every fan is interested in knowing. In a recent interview, the I Want To Talk star revealed that his daughter does not have a phone and is not on any social media and gave all the credit to his beautiful wife. Abhishek Bachchan gives credit to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for raising Aaradhya Bachchan Talking to Nayandeep Rakshit on his YouTube channel, Abhishek Bachchan was asked about the challenges they face in raising a child in today's day and time. He was asked whether Aaradhya Bachchan had a reckoning of the fame her parents or grandparents enjoy. The Sarkar actor instantly replied that he had never really spoken to her daughter about this, but he believed that she has grown up now and understands everything. He further added that the credit for this entirely goes to her mother, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Talking about his privilege, he spoke, 'I have the liberty, I get to go out and make my movie, and Aishwarya does the heavy lifting with Aaradhya, and she is amazing and selfless. Which I find amazing.' He confessed that fathers do not have the ability to be as giving as mothers because they are wired in a different way. They cannot prioritise their child as the top priority, and this is a gift that only mothers possess, said Junior Bachchan. Abhishek Bachchan on Aaradhya being the pride of the family Elaborating on how it still stands true for him at 49, Abhishek said, 'My mom is 76, I'm 49 and that's your comfort for every child. And no matter how old you are, to your mother, you are always going to be a baby.' Bachchan further revealed that daughter Aaradhya is not on any social media and does not have a phone also. 'She is turning up to be a wonderful little lady. She is the pride and joy of the family, and ya, we are blessed,' concluded the Kaalidhar Laapata star.
