Ranbir Kapoor & Sai Pallavi’s Ramayana delayed?
As per Bollywood Hungama now, Ramayana has been delayed. Earlier news portals reported that the makers felt the costumes were not “lavish” enough, which delayed the shoot. However, the latest source close to the development claims there are “too many internal issues that need to be resolved.” And that is leading to the unfortunate postponement of the Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi film, which may commence its shoot in 2025.
