Ajinkya Deo, who plays Guru Vishwamitra in Nitesh Tiwari's upcoming epic 'Ramayana', said his initial makeup and costume took two hours. According to odishatv.in, the beard had to be removed for lunch, so the British makeup artist split it into three sections to save time. Deo called the process lovely and praised Ranbir Kapoor's portrayal of Lord Rama and Yash's 'lovable' Ravana.

Meanwhile, Nitish Sharma, cast as Shatrughan, told Mid-Day that the role came during a difficult phase when he was reading the Ramcharitmanas. He called the offer a divine blessing and a reminder of Lord Ram's bigger plan. Sharma thanked casting director Mukesh Chhabra, producer Namit Malhotra, and director Nitesh Tiwari for trusting him with the responsibility.
Both actors frame their roles as spiritual journeys, but the film remains untested. The hype around Bollywood's mythological spectacles often overshadows substance. Deo's two-hour makeup and Sharma's personal story make for good promotion, but the real question is whether the film can balance visual grandeur with narrative depth. Will it avoid the common pitfall of style over storytelling?
