Yash about Ramayana

Speaking at the event, Yash said, “We have all come together with one vision and one conviction: to take this story to a global platform. Everyone has kept their individual interests aside. There is only one shared interest, which is to tell the story of Prabhu Shri Ram to audiences around the world and celebrate him in our own country.”

Praising Ranbir Kapoor, he added, “Ranbir Kapoor has been phenomenal. I think the whole of India will understand how deeply he has surrendered to this role and see the magic he has created.”

The Rocking Star further said, “When you see Sai Pallavi perform, her eyes say everything. Also, Nitesh sir, thank you for guiding me, understanding what the character required, answering my questions, and helping me do this.”
