Nitesh Tiwari’s 'Ramayana' will feature music by composer Hans Zimmer, of 'Dune' and 'Interstellar'-fame and A R Rahman. In an interview with Connect Cine, Rahman marvelled at the idea of working on a project like 'Ramayana' and composing with Hans Zimmer.
“Who would’ve imagined me scoring with Hans Zimmer on a project like 'Ramayana', one of the biggest films? It’s our Indian culture, and I’m really proud of that project. I hope everything goes well.”
The composer also spoke about the process of working with Hans, stating, “The first few sessions we had were great. The first session was in London, the second one was in LA, and the third was in Dubai. Wherever Hans travels, I also find a base there. He is very similar, I mean…how curious he is about the culture and how open he is to criticism. He also heads the narrative, where he says, hey, I can’t understand this, can I bring in a Western perspective?”
'Ramayana', which will be released in two parts for Diwali in 2026 and 2027, will feature Ranbir as Lord Ram, Sai as Sita, Yash as Ravana, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman.
