The makers of Nitesh Tiwari's much-anticipated Ramayana, with Ranbir Kapoor playing the titular deity Ram, have finally shared an update after many weeks. The epic mythogical drama is set to have its trailer unveiled on July 24 in a grand manner.
Sharing the news on their social media handles, the makers wrote, "From Bharat to the world.

One of Bharat's greatest civilisational epics, presented to the world, at a scale never attempted before in Indian cinema. The Ramayana Trailer premieres worldwide on 24th July."
The trailer of Ramayana is going global as the film's first look has been planned to be unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) on July 23, a day before audiences across the world get to see the glimpse.

The SDCC description describes Ramayana as the "largest cinematic undertaking in Indian film history." The full description reads, "In an age of gods and kings, the fate of worlds hangs in the balance. Rama, a prince bound by duty, sacrifice, and the greater good, must face Ravana, an immortal ruler driven by pride and vengeance, powerful enough to shatter the cosmos. Namit Malhotra, founder of Prime Focus and global CEO of visual effects powerhouse DNEG, is joined by Ranbir Kapoor (Rama), Yash (Ravana), and director Nitesh Tiwari for an exclusive first look at the largest cinematic undertaking in Indian film history and a sweeping new retelling of one of the world's oldest and most enduring epics."
For the unversed, Ramayana is only the second Indian film to be showcased at SDCC after Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD.
