# Ramayan second trailer released, VFX, costumes improved 2026-10-15T18:41:11+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets The second trailer for Ranbir Kapoor-starrer 'Ramayan' was released on Thursday, 15 October 2026. The 2-minute-36-second trailer shows improved visual effects and costumes compared to the first trailer, Dainik Bhaskar and Aaj Tak report. The trailer focuses on the battle between Lord Ram (Kapoor) and Ravan (Yash), showing scenes including Ravan's rise from darkness, the Pushpak Vimana, and the fight between Jatayu and Ravan. The film, internationally titled 'Ramayan: The Rise of a Legend', releases worldwide on 5 November 2026. The trailer also shows Devraj Indra (Kunal Kapoor) on his elephant Airavat, and Ravan attacking him. The makers are reportedly seeking permission to hold a special screening at Rashtrapati Bhavan around the release date, Dainik Bhaskar reports, citing Mid-Day. The film is made in two parts with a budget of approximately Rs 4,000 crore, making it the most expensive Indian film ever. Music is by AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer. Part 1 releases on 5 November 2026. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both Dainik Bhaskar and Aaj Tak deliver neutral, largely descriptive coverage of the trailer release, focussing on visuals, cast, and release date. Dainik Bhaskar adds a detail about a possible Rashtrapati Bhavan screening, while Aaj Tak sticks strictly to trailer scenes. Neither outlet criticises nor praises the government, neither editorialises. The uniform straight reporting means the only difference is one extra logistical fact in Bhaskar. The key next step is the film's global release on 5 November 2026. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - bhaskar.com (neutral report) Describes trailer, budget, cast, and screening plan - aajtak.in (neutral report) Describes trailer scenes, release date, part 2 plan This brief was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
