Sunny Deol is currently gearing up for his upcoming movie Jaat, which is slated to release in theatres on April 10. While the actor is busy promoting his movie, he also talked about his upcoming project Ramayana, which is directed by Nitesh Tiwari. In the mythological drama movie, the actor is set to play the role of Lord Hanuman. Recently, Deol opened up about his challenges playing the role. He stated that while playing the role, the makers and he himself did not want to do anything wrong. Know what he said here.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Sunny Deol said, “An actor’s job is to perform and be excited with the character. As an actor, you have to believe the director. The technology has come up so well now that it makes you believe. I remember being taken aback by Superman. Now, the technology in India is getting better. The ‘Chal Jayega’ matter has reduced, and we are all aiming for perfection.”
“We are actors and doing our best. To play Hanuman ji is going to be difficult in a way because one doesn’t want to do anything wrong,” he added.
Deol also said, “I am very excited about Ramayana because Namit (Malhotra, DNEG) is doing it, and he is at the moment holding special effect companies all over the world. He is doing a great job and is the right person to make Ramayana. He wants to make it (the film) believable because he believes in the story. I have known him for years, and I think he got the right film to do so.”
Ramayana also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash, Rakul Preet Singh, Sheeba Chaddha, Ravi Dubey, Arun Govil and Lara Dutta in key roles. As per reports, the film is slated to be released in Diwali, 2026.
