Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is one of the most anticipated Indian films of the year, with its trailer set to launch on July 24 at a grand event in New Delhi. However, just days before the much-awaited launch, reports claim that lead actor Ranbir Kapoor has developed conjunctivitis, commonly known as an eye infection. Despite the health issue, the actor is reportedly expected to attend the promotional event as planned.

According to a report by Hindustan Times, Ranbir Kapoor has been diagnosed with conjunctivitis ahead of the trailer launch of Ramayana. A source close to the actor reportedly said that the infection first affected his daughter, Raha. Since eye infections spread easily among family members, Ranbir is believed to have contracted it while taking care of her.
