'Ramayana' Locks November 6 As Official Release Date; English Trailer Out

Ranbir Kapoor and Yash's ambitious upcoming adaptation of the Ramayana has set an official release date. Ramayana will be released in theatres worldwide on November 6, according to its latest English trailer. Produced by Namit Malhotra and directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film's first instalment will hit theatres in November, two days ahead of Diwali.

Sony Pictures made the official announcement on X along with the English trailer. "An epic journey unlike anything seen before. Watch the official trailer for #Ramayana, coming to theatres worldwide November 6," the post read.

The first full trailer for Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana was unveiled on July 30, offering audiences their biggest look yet at the filmmaker's ambitious adaptation of the Indian epic. Released during the Brahma Muhurat at 4.15 a.m., the trailer introduced the central conflict between Lord Ram and Raavan while showcasing the expansive mythological world recreated for the big screen.

Led by Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Yash as Raavan, the film also stars Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshman, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, Arun Govil as King Dashrath, Lara Dutta as Kaikeyi, Rakul Preet Singh as Shurpanakha, alongside Vivek Oberoi, Kunal Kapoor, Shobana, Saurabh Sachdeva and Faisal Malik. The ensemble cast also features Indira Krishnan, Adinath Kothare and several other actors in key mythological roles.

Another highlight is the score, which marks the first collaboration between Oscar-winning composers A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer. Produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios in association with DNEG and Yash's Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana was also previewed at San Diego Comic-Con 2026 ahead of its trailer launch after its original July 24 release was postponed following the film's global distribution deal with Sony Pictures Entertainment.
