# Ramayana Part 1 makers plan Rashtrapati Bhavan screening for leaders 2026-10-14T05:06:53+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets The makers of *Ramayana: Part 1* are planning a special screening of the film at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi for political leaders on 5 November, the same day as its worldwide theatrical release, according to a Mid-Day report. The report says the team is seeking the required permissions for the event, which has not yet been officially confirmed. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the mythological epic stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita and Yash as demon king Ravana. Times Now adds that the team is also reportedly planning two premieres, one in Mumbai at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, and another in Delhi. The film’s second part is scheduled for a Diwali 2027 release. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both sources report that the makers of *Ramayana: Part 1* are planning a Rashtrapati Bhavan screening for political leaders on 5 November, with permissions still being sought. Mid-Day, which broke the story, presents it as a sourced news item. Times Now aggregates the report, adding speculation about a Mumbai premiere at the NMACC and expanding on the cast and budget. Neither outlet frames the development as political or official, the coverage is uniform straight reporting. The key uncertainty highlighted by both is the lack of an official confirmation, placing the story’s next step in the makers’ ability to secure the required permissions before the 5 November release. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - timesnownews.com (neutral report) Leads with the screening report, adds premiere speculation - mid-day.com (neutral report) Original sourced report, focuses on the screening plan This brief was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
