Ramayana First Look: Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi Feature as Ram and Sita in First Song Poster
The much-awaited Ramayana has added another major moment to its promotional campaign with the unveiling of the poster for its first song. Released around the celebrations of Ganesh Chaturthi, the new promotional artwork features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita, giving audiences another glimpse of the central pair ahead of the film’s theatrical release.
The poster has generated considerable attention among fans, particularly because it presents Ranbir and Sai Pallavi together in their mythological characters. The makers have been gradually revealing the scale and visual world of the ambitious two-part adaptation, and the latest song announcement continues that build-up.
Ramayana First Song Titled Jai Jai Ram
The first song from the film is titled “Jai Jai Ram” and marks the beginning of the movie’s musical journey. The track features music by AR Rahman, with vocals by Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal. Poet Dr. Kumar Vishwas has written the song.
The combination of Rahman’s music with the voices of Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal has further increased anticipation around the song. Rather than functioning simply as a conventional Bollywood track, the song has been positioned as a devotional and cinematic expression connected to Lord Ram.
The release timing on Ganesh Chaturthi also adds a festive dimension to the promotional campaign.
Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita
Ranbir Kapoor plays Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious adaptation, while Sai Pallavi portrays Sita. Their casting has remained one of the most discussed aspects of the project since the film’s early announcements.
The latest poster offers a more intimate glimpse of the two characters, contrasting with some of the larger-scale visuals previously revealed through the film’s promotional material.
Earlier glimpses and the first trailer have already introduced Ranbir’s interpretation of Ram, Sai Pallavi’s Sita and Yash’s portrayal of Raavan. The film is being designed as a large-scale cinematic interpretation of the epic, with extensive visual effects and international production ambitions.
Nitesh Tiwari’s Ambitious Two-Part Ramayana
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is planned as a two-part cinematic adaptation. The project features a major ensemble cast, including Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash and Sunny Deol, among others.
The film’s production involves Prime Focus Studios, Monster Mind Creations and DNEG, with Namit Malhotra leading the production. The official film material describes the project as a large-scale international production built around extensive visual effects.
The first part is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release during the Diwali window on November 6, 2026, while the second part is planned for October 28, 2027.
AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer Add to the Musical Scale
Music is another major component of the film’s global positioning. AR Rahman is involved with the songs, while Hans Zimmer is associated with the film’s larger musical score.
The collaboration has been highlighted as part of the makers’ effort to create a cinematic experience that combines Indian mythology with an international-scale production approach. The first song, “Jai Jai Ram,” therefore becomes an important early indication of the film’s musical identity.
Fans React to the New Ramayana Visuals
The release of the song poster has renewed discussions among audiences about Ranbir Kapoor’s appearance as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi’s portrayal of Sita.
The film has already generated substantial online interest following its teaser and trailer releases. Earlier promotional material received significant attention for its visual scale, character designs and presentation of the Ram-Raavan conflict.
The latest song launch is expected to keep that momentum going as the film moves closer to its Diwali theatrical release.
Why the First Song Matters for Ramayana
For a film built around one of India’s most familiar and culturally significant epics, the music carries considerable importance. The first song can help establish the emotional and devotional tone of the story while also giving audiences another look at the relationship between Ram and Sita.
With AR Rahman composing the music and Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal lending their voices, “Jai Jai Ram” brings together some of the biggest names in Indian music for the project’s first major song release.
As the promotional campaign progresses, more songs, visuals and promotional material are expected to reveal additional aspects of the film before its theatrical debut.
