Vindu Dara Singh appreciates the teaser but highlights a crucial factor

Vindu described the teaser of ‘Ramayana’ as powerful and visually appealing. At the same time, he pointed out an important aspect that the makers must consider. Speaking about it to AajTak, he said, “The teaser is fantastic. But there’s a strict rule here. The Ramayana written by Ramanand Sagar ji is completely embedded in all of our hearts and minds. That Ramayana is historic, number one. If this film matches that, then the film will be a superhit. It will be a record-breaking hit.”He further warned that too many creative changes could lead to rejection from the audience. Stressing on staying close to the original narrative, Vindu said, “If the new Ramayan is made with too much freedom, people will reject it. If they try to change anything, like making them (the demons) look more dangerous, or if they overdo it, people will not accept it.” His statement reflects the deep emotional connect audiences have with the classic version.
