Actor Ravie Dubey is celebrating the massive success of the film Ramayana Part 1 after it crossed one thousand crore rupees in worldwide collections within eight days of hitting theatres on November 5, 2026. Playing the role of Lakshman, Ravie shared a heartfelt note on Instagram to thank viewers for their overwhelming love and support.
Behind the Scenes
In his social media post, the actor shared pictures from the shoot, including one where he held a bow and arrow in costume alongside co-stars Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi. Ravie admitted he felt deeply scared before taking on the project, worrying he might disappoint the team or do a disservice to the epic character. He noted that Lakshman had no personal ambitions and simply wanted to stand ready in service of Lord Rama and Sita.
Gratitude
Ravie thanked casting director Mukesh Chhabra for making the single phone call that changed his life. He also expressed gratitude to director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra for placing him on a set with some of the greatest talent in the world, despite feeling like the most junior actor there. The film also stars Yash as Ravana, with music composed by AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer.
Context
Major cinematic adaptations of the Hindu epic Ramayana often draw massive box office crowds upon release. The film is planned as a two-part cinematic project produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios and Yash's Monster Mind Creations.
