Milte hai, ek delay ke baad
The buzz is that the much-anticipated second part of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana has been delayed from its original August 2025 start to January 2026. The shift is attributed to the busy schedules of its leading actors Ranbir Kapoor, Yash, and Sunny Deol. Insiders tell mid-day that Ranbir, who plays the role of Lord Ram, is tied up with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War, while Yash is currently filming Toxic. Meanwhile, Sunny is managing personal commitments related to his family, following his father Dharmendra’s health scare. However, we have learnt that despite the delay, pre-production is being fast-tracked.
