Salman Khan was once set to play Lord Ram for this movie, Sonali Bendre was given role of Sita, but the movie never released due to...
While fans are eagerly waiting for Ranbir Kapoor's big-screen transformation into Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's upcoming Ramayan, few know that Bollywood's original 'Bhaijaan' was once meant to step into those very divine shoes. Back in the 1990s, Sohail Khan had envisioned a grand cinematic take on the Ramayan, casting his superstar brother Salman Khan as Ram and Sonali Bendre as Sita. The film had even started shooting, and about 40% of it was already completed. What went wrong with this ambitious project? As per a report by Mid-Day, things were running smoothly until personal dynamics started interfering with professional plans. Actress and producer Pooja Bhatt joined the project midway. That's when the buzz began, rumours of a relationship between Sohail Khan and Pooja Bhatt started making the rounds. This didn't sit well with Salim Khan, the head of the Khan family. According to reports, he disapproved of their growing closeness and advised Sohail to end the relationship. Did Pooja Bhatt walk out? Despite Salman Khan trying to manage the situation calmly, Pooja Bhatt eventually exited the film due to what seemed like emotional fallout and discomfort with the family's stance. Her exit marked the beginning of the end. Without her, the film lost momentum and was quietly shelved—never to be completed. The forgotten Ramayan before Ranbir Kapoor's Interestingly, this untitled film was being planned decades before today's multi-part Ramayan, backed by Nitesh Tiwari. The upcoming version is scheduled to be released in two parts, Part 1 during Diwali 2025 and Part 2 during Diwali 2026, with Sai Pallavi as Sita. But had things gone as planned in the 90s, Salman Khan might've already been immortalised as Lord Ram in Indian cinema, long before Ranbir picked up the bow and arrow.

Roblox's Dinosaur Grow a Garden has officially entered its darker phase with the launch of the Corrupted Event Update, which went live today at 7:00 AM (PT). This pivotal expansion shifts the game's Zen-themed tranquility into chaos, introducing the Corrupt mutation, the enigmatic Corrupt Channeler, and the brand-new Corrupted Kitsune NPC, along with multiple seeds, pets, and high-stakes gameplay mechanics. The franchise Zen Aura event now has a chance each hour to mutate into the Corrupt Zen Aura, during which fruits can randomly gain the Corrupt mutation, distinguished by a swirling red aura. These mutated fruits offer a massive 25× sale value multiplier, making them highly coveted. Players submit Tranquil-mutated fruits to the Corrupt Channeler NPC to earn Corruption Points that grow the Corrupt Tree at the center hub. As corruption levels increase, players unlock further mutations and clear tiered rewards. Each hourly Zen event resets corruption progression.
