Mumbai: Nitesh Tiwari, the visionary filmmaker behind the highly anticipated Ramayana, has embarked on an ambitious cinematic odyssey that promises to redefine epic storytelling. While the star-studded cast featuring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Yash as Ravana has been garnering attention, it’s the powerhouse musical collaboration brewing behind the scenes that has set tongues wagging.
As per an exclusive report by Pinkvilla, the creators of Ramayana have secured the talents of not one, but two musical virtuosos: the esteemed Oscar-winners, Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman, to orchestrate the film’s musical landscape. This landmark collaboration marks Zimmer’s maiden foray into the Indian film industry, as he joins forces with the legendary Rahman to breathe life into this timeless saga on the silver screen.
Hans Zimmer’s illustrious career in Hollywood spans iconic masterpieces like The Lion King, Man of Steel, Interstellar, The Dark Knight Trilogy, and Inception, among others. His alliance with AR Rahman, celebrated for his soul-stirring compositions in films such as Slumdog Millionaire and Lagaan, is poised to elevate the musical tapestry of Ramayana to unprecedented heights.
According to insider reports, “Hans Zimmer is set to make his debut in the Indian film industry with Ramayana. Namit Malhotra and Nitesh Tiwari have consistently articulated their global vision for this quintessential Indian epic, and they are sparing no effort to realize that vision. Hans Zimmer is deeply intrigued by the narrative of Lord Ram’s journey and is fully committed to crafting the musical score for Ramayana.”
