Ranbir Kapoor initially wanted to refuse the role of Lord Rama
Meanwhile, during a recent Q&A New York special IMAX trailer screening, Ranbir Kapoor recalled being approached for the movie. He shared, “Coming to play Lord Ram, I remember when Namit offered me this part around four years back, my instant reaction was: ‘I am not fit enough, good enough.’ I felt I wouldn’t be able to do full justice. But that fear quickly turned into gratitude because opportunities like this were something I truly needed in my life.”
He added, “There was a period when I needed to change my lifestyle. I had just become a father for the first time. The sweet coincidence of playing Lord Ram and becoming a father became a turning point in my life.”
