The plan was in full throttle, the venue had been finalised, and guests had been invited for the much-anticipated showcase of the principal characters of Nitesh Tiwari’s magnum opus, ‘Ramayana: Part One’. But no one expected the event to be postponed. Sources close to the production inform mid-day that producer Namit Malhotra has decided to postpone the launch of the film’s promotional assets, which were originally scheduled to coincide with the Ram Navami festival on March 26.

The showcase, organised at Gateway of India, was set to unveil the look of the leading cast. However, the makers have opted to defer the unveiling in light of the ongoing US–Israel–Iran conflict that has triggered global tensions. They now plan to roll out promotional activities closer to May.


“The Ram Navami launch was planned as a massive moment for the film, but ‘Ramayana’ is not just a domestic project; it’s an international film with a global audience. The producers felt that the current situation worldwide is not the most conducive environment to unveil such important material,” informs an insider, adding that the makers do not want to rush the launch. The first instalment of Ramayana is slated for release during the Diwali 2026 window.
