The initial reactions to Ranbir Kapoor’s portrayal as Ram in the upcoming Ramayana film are overwhelmingly negative, with fans expressing disappointment and even anger at the casting choice. One fan minced no words, deeming the casting “horrible” and labeling both Ranbir and co-star Sai Pallavi as “Bollywood thugs.” The sentiment was echoed by many others, who criticized the lack of grace in the actors’ performances and expressed skepticism about the film’s potential success.
Comparisons to Adipurush, another mythological production released in 2023, further fueled the criticism, with fans lamenting that lessons were not learned from previous mistakes. Some suggested that Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan would have been a better fit for the role of Ram, predicting that the film would fare poorly at the box office.

Overall, the prevailing sentiment among fans is one of disappointment and frustration, with many expressing a lack of faith in the project and its potential for success. Whether these negative reactions will translate into an actual boycott of the film remains to be seen, but it is clear that the initial reception has been less than favorable.
