Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi's Rs 4000 crore Ramayana may sink at box office if these 3 things are NOT paid attention, the first is... Nitesh Tiwari's highly-anticipated epic tale- Ramayana is touted as the biggest Indian film ever made. Reason? Its staggering budget, exceptional VFX and terrific star-studded cast. Film's producer Namit Malhotra recently talked about the ambitious film and its budget. He revealed that all the production and marketing for both the installments of the film (Ramayana Part 1 and Ramayana Part 2) are done, and the costing is nothing less than staggering $500-million (Rs 4000 crore). Yes its unbelievable but true! The figure is higher than many Hollywood and Bollywood classics, naturally raising more than a few eyebrows. Interacting on The Prakhar Gupta Xperience podcast, Namit said, 'When we set out to make it, 6-7 years ago, when we really got serious about mounting it, everybody called me a lunatic, because no Indian film comes close to it budgetwise. To put it simply, it will be about $500 million by the time we are done with both the films – Part 1 and Part 2, which is over Rs 4000 crore.' He added, 'We are making the largest film in the world for the greatest story the world should see. I still think it is cheaper than some of the big Hollywood films. I think we are making a bigger film at a lower cost. That Indian in me still believes we are not being irresponsible with money.' Since the $500-million budget would mean that each of the two Ramayana films are assumed to earn $1 billion at the box office. These numbers have been scored by only global hits like Avatar, Avengers, Fast franchise etc at the box office. There is no Indian film that has ever grossed over Rs 2000 crore. In 2017, Nitesh Tiwari's Dangal grossed Rs 2000 crore, but over Rs 1300 crore came Internationally, specifically from China. The other highest-grossing Indian films like Pushpa 2: The Rise and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion , grossed over Rs 1700 crore worldwide. Moreover the makers will be using strong VFX for the larger-than-life theatrical experience. If the poor execution of visual effects or storytelling occur, it can affect the viewing experience and the film might appear cheap. Ramayana film must be handled with cultural sensitivity. If the fail doesn't resonate with the audience or capture the attention of the modern viewers, it can lead to negative views or box office disappointment. Ramayana stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshman, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. Supporting the powerful cast is an extraordinary crew. For the first time, Music maestro AR Rahman will collaborate with the legendary Hans Zimmer, to craft a new cinematic symphony. Helmed by Nitesh Tiwari and bankrolled by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios and Yash's Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana Part 1 is scheduled for a release on Diwali 2026, and the second part on Diwali 2027.

NEW DELHI: Singer and co-star Inam-ul-Haq, who appeared alongside Radhika Yadav in the music video Karwaan, has said he will not keep any earnings from the project, days after the 25-year-old was shot dead by her father in Gurgaon. Amid online speculation that the song's rising popularity is linked to the murder, Inam issued a statement on Instagram, saying, 'A lot of people say I'm gaining fame because of what happened to Radhika. That my song Karwaan is trending, and I'll earn from it. So let me say this clearly — I won't keep a single rupee.' 'Whatever I receive from Karwaan — whether monthly royalties from @iprsmusic or revenue from @songdewnetwork — will go towards helping the poor, feeding the hungry, supporting the helpless, and doing something meaningful,' he added. 'For as long as this song is played in the world, every payment, every month, for the rest of my life, will be donated.'

She later told police she initially thought it was a pressure cooker blast. Inam-ul-Haq, who featured in the song with Radhika, said the shoot was their only interaction and denied any personal connection. 'I met her for the first time during the Tennis Premier League in Delhi. Later, we worked together in the video shoot. She was an actor to me. We gave her a good luck amount. The production was unpaid. After the release, there was no contact,' he said. Rejecting the communal angle being pushed online, Haq said, 'This incident is being given a Hindu-Muslim angle. I don't know why. I have nothing to do with this case. There was neither any kind of friendship nor any relationship between Radhika and me.' He also recalled that Radhika came for the shoot with her mother and mentioned that her father had liked the song. 'She told us she wanted to work in the film line. After that, we never met. She deactivated and reactivated her Instagram account two-three times,' he said. The singer said he has not been contacted by police but is ready to cooperate. 'If I receive any call, I will definitely cooperate with them,' he added. Radhika, who had switched to coaching after a tennis injury, was cremated in Gurgaon. Police sources have said Deepak Yadav was upset with her for running a tennis academy and had allegedly asked her to take down the Karwaan video from social media. According to the postmortem report, she suffered four bullet injuries.
