Yash on playing Ravan in Ramayana

In an interview with India TV, Yash was asked why he chose to play Ravana despite being a co-producer of the film. He said, “If we want to show the goodness of Rama, Ravana must personify the evil. No one can portray evil better than I can. Ravan ko dekhkar lagna chahiye — 'isko kaise maara jaaye?'” Yash said. He added, “We all have kept our egos aside. It's not about my stardom or me as a star in Ramayana. The best people are working on this project.”
