After its grand unveiling at San Diego Comic-Con, Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Ramayana is gearing up for a worldwide release in 2026. As the Nitesh Tiwari directorial prepares to reach international audiences, a report claims that its English version will be around 30 minutes shorter than the Hindi cut, with songs omitted and some scenes trimmed.

Ramayana English version to be shorter

As per a report in Variety, the English version of the film will reportedly be around 30 minutes shorter than the Hindi cut, making for a more concise edit aimed at global viewers. According to a source, “The film will not have any songs, and also some scenes will be trimmed to suit the palate of international audiences. While Indian audiences are used to three-hour-plus films with songs, that doesn’t hold true for a global audience, which is why the producers took this decision.”
