One film that the whole country is eagerly waiting for is Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash, and Sunny Deol in the lead roles, and also has a very strong supporting cast. While there were reports that Marathi film actor Addinath Kothare will be seen in the film as Bharat, the actor in the interview confirmed the reports, and also spoke about the movie.
While talking to Bollywood Hungama about being a part of the film, Addinath said, “It’s a blessing yaar. It’s the biggest film made on Indian soil. It’s also one of the biggest films made globally today. To be a part of it, I am truly indebted to Mukesh Chhabra. He is the man who cast me and, of course, Nitesh sir for choosing me for the character of Bharat. And also Namit Malhotra sir who believed in me and entrusted me with such a big responsibility of such an important character.”
While talking about Nitesh Tiwari and Namit Malhotra's vision, Addinath stated that the two are absolutely well-planned. He revealed that almost 10 years were spent on the pre-production of the film, and the scripting started in 2016 or 2017.
