Ramayana 3D official announcement video gets censored again, runtime revealed 

Producer Namit Malhotra had submitted a fresh video asset of Ramayana 3D to get it censored. According to reports, the new censored promo is the official title announcement video, which has a runtime of 3 minutes. The promo has received a 'U' certificate from the Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC). This 'U' censor certificate indicates that the video asset is unrestricted for all age groups, and everyone can watch it. 

The new announcement video is expected to have the first official glimpses of the lead star cast, which includes Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Mata Sita, and Yash as Ravana. Interestingly, the promotional asset might not include Sunny Deol's footage as Lord Hanuman, as the actor is yet to begin his shoot. However, there is a little possibility that his look test might be used in the newly censored promo.

This is the second time that a Ramayana announcement video has been censored. The earlier announcement promo, which was censored to a duration of 2 minutes and 26 seconds, remained unreleased. 

The makers of Ramayana had plans to release the official announcement video during WAVES 2025 in the first week of May. However, producer Namit Malhotra had decided to call it off later. 

For the unversed, Ramayana Part One is slated to hit the screens on Diwali 2026, while its concluding installment will release on Diwali 2027.
