Bollywood’s Ramayana Delayed Due to Global Tensions?

Nitesh Tiwari‘s Ramayana is being described as one of the most ambitious projects in Indian cinema. Filmmakers, fans and critics are eagerly waiting for the film’s release. The project reportedly carries a massive budget of over Rs 4000 crores.

The makers are focusing heavily on visual effects and global appeal. Because of its scale and technical ambition, the film is expected to reach audiences across international markets.

The team had originally planned a grand promotional launch at the Gateway of India. The event was scheduled to take place on Ram Navami in March 2026 and was expected to mark the beginning of the film’s promotions.

However, the launch has now been put on hold. According to reports, venues were booked and invitations had already been sent out before the decision was taken.

Sources say the makers want Ramayana to have a strong global promotional campaign. Due to the current tensions involving the USA, Iran and Israel, the international situation is being viewed as sensitive.

Because of this uncertain global climate, the team reportedly felt it may not be the right time to unveil the project. As a result, the promotional launch is now expected to happen in May.

Fans who were eagerly waiting for the first official promotional material will have to wait a little longer. The delay is also expected to affect the release of initial promotional assets.

Despite the change in schedule, the makers believe the decision is necessary. They want to ensure that the film’s global campaign begins at the right time and reaches audiences in the best possible way.
