Ramayana Film Highlights Yash’s Complex Portrayal of Ravana in Traditional Retelling

Ramayana Film Highlights Yash’s Complex Portrayal of Ravana in Traditional RetellingPreviousNext

The film Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, offers a largely traditional retelling of the epic, with particular focus on the antagonist Ravana, portrayed by Yash. His performance is noted for adding depth by exploring Ravana's early life, ambitions, and inner conflicts, including a notable scene featuring ten versions of himself. While the film is seen as a safe and sincere adaptation without creative risks, it succeeds in humanizing Ravana and delivering impactful moments, especially in key sequences like Sita's abduction.
