The forthcoming film Ramayana, which is a mythological tale directed by Nitesh Tiwari and featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravan, will have Vivek Oberoi playing Vibhishan. The media was told by Oberoi, “I told Namit that I don’t want a single penny for this. I want to give it away for any cause I support – children with cancer.”
Why the Cause is Important
Oberoi has been active in the cancer care movement through his foundation and partnerships with charities. His decision regarding Ramayana coincides with the film’s major ambition and goes along with the film’s and India’s ability in using its own grand epics. He remarked, “I just love the thought behind this, and I think India will be on the world film map with a bang.”
Big Film, Bigger Intentions
The project, Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is gigantic – a vast ambition, profound mythology, real history, and top-notch visuals. The donation of Oberoi’s fee to charity only adds more significance to the project. While the film is being made, his act has drawn attention not merely as an act of goodwill but as a declaration of cinema with conscience.
Hype and Buzz
Ramayana will come out in two parts. While Part: I is going to be released on Diwali, 2026. Part: II all set to release on Diwali, 2027. It is produced by Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Limited, and the music is given by maestros A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer. Fans are already very much excited about this magnum opus of Indian Cinema.
On his work front, Vivek Oberoi will be seen next in the adult comedy, Mastiii 4, the fourth instalment of the ‘Masti franchise’. He will also portray the role of the antagonist in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s cop drama Spirit, starring Prabhas.
