But when Yash stepped into Ravana’s colossal cloak, the Hyderabad crowd didn’t hiss; they erupted in cheers. The 4,000‑crore wonder is set to hit screens on November 5 worldwide, and the buzz is already turning headliners. NEWPAR Sai Pallavi, the radiant Sita, swore she’d never seen a villain pull off a love‑ticket. "Nobody chooses to play Ravana because it comes with hate. But Yash did it and won everyone’s love instead," she told reporters, her eyes glittering like a festival. NEWPAR Yash, who also co‑produced the film, explains the logic behind the flip. "Ram ka bhalai dikhane ke liye Ravan ka burai bhi toh chahiye," he laughed, insisting that a perfect villain sharpens the hero’s shine. "Mujhse achcha burai koi nahi dikha sakta," he added, and the crowd nodded. NEWPAR The budget’s heft is a story in itself: a staggering ₹4,000 crore, or $500 million, earmarked for two parts. Producer Namit Malhotra whispered, "When we set out to make this six or seven years ago, people thought I was a lunatic because no Indian film comes close to this scale." The plan? Drop part one on November 5, then reheat the saga for Diwali 2027. NEWPAR Beyond Yash and Sai Pallavi, the cast roars with Ranbir Kapoor, Sunny Deol, Ravi Dubey, and a host of others. As the promo tour continues, fans can’t help but wonder: will a villain become the hero’s most beloved sidekick? Only the release will tell.
