KGF fame actor Yash’s Monster Mind Creations has teamed up with Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios to produce the popular Hindu epic, “Ramayana” for global audiences.
Namit Malhotra, known for his leadership at the Academy Award-winning visual effects company DNEG, and Yash aspire to bring the story of India’s rich cultural heritage to the world through the joint production.
Commenting on the project, Malhotra said, “My challenges from the start have been two-fold: to respect the sanctity of a tale which is held in such high regard by all of us who grew up with it, while also bringing it to the world in such a way that this incredible story is embraced by international audiences as a compelling big-screen experience.”
Yash, equally passionate about showcasing Indian cinema on a global platform, said, “Our vision is to translate this timeless epic onto the silver screen in a grand spectacle, honoring its scale. But at its core, it will be an honest and faithful portrayal of the story, the emotions, and the enduring values we hold so dear.”
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari and supported by DNEG’s visual effects team, “Ramayana” promises to deliver a cinematic experience that celebrates India’s storytelling heritage, the makers said in a statement.
“This is an Indian film presenting Indian culture to the world in a way that no other film has ever been able to achieve. Our interpretation will be told without compromise and presented in such a way that Indian hearts will swell with pride to see their culture brought to the rest of the world in this way,”
The makers are currently assembling a talented cast of actors, as well investors and backers to ensure that the epic translates perfectly on screen. More details about the project will be announced in future.
