The actor also praised the visual effects, saying they make the world of the epic look so real that viewers may feel they are part of it. He appreciated the work of the cast and strongly encouraged audiences to watch the film.

Sunny Deol's Role In ‘Ramayana'
Sunny Deol appears as Hanuman in a post-credit scene in the first part. His face is not shown, but his voice can be heard chanting “Jai Shri Ram”. The actor is expected to have a bigger role in the second part, which is planned for a 2028 release.
The film stars Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravana and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. Anupam Kher voices Jatayu, the divine bird who tries to save Sita after Ravana abducts her. Arun Govil, Lara Dutta, Rakul Preet Singh, Vivek Oberoi and Shobana also play important roles.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, Ramayana: Part 1 is the first of a two-part film series based on the ancient Indian epic. The film released worldwide in theatres on November 5. The film's music has been composed by AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer.
