Keeping fans on their toes, the much-anticipated Nitesh Tiwari`s `Ramayana` has been creating buzz ever since its announcement. After reports of Ranbir Kapoor’s whopping fee amount made headlines, it is now being reported that the film itself is a costly project with its budget at a mammoth figure of USD 100 Million which is around Rs 835 crore, that too just for the first part, given that the magnum opus is billed to be a trilogy.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, “Ramayana is not just a film but an emotion and the makers are leaving no stone unturned to make it a global spectacle. Producer Namit Malhotra plans to expand this further as the franchise grows. The idea is to take the audience on a visual treat with Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. The budget of Ramayana is close to Rs 835 crores. The film requires 600 days of post-production work, which in itself speaks volumes about the investment required to create some of the most original visuals on the spectacle. The idea is to take Indian Cinema at a global level.”
