Producer Alleges Negative Marketing Hurt Mahakavya Shri Ramayan Katha's ReleasePreviousNext

Producer Prakash Mahobiya of Mahakavya Shri Ramayan Katha alleged that negative marketing, including circulated criticism by YouTubers and influencers, hindered the film's box office performance. He suggested this campaign may be linked to competition from another Ramayana-based film starring Ranbir Kapoor. Mahobiya stated that viewers who saw the film responded positively and announced plans to re-release it, emphasizing the film was ready before the competing project was announced.
