Filmmakers behind Ranbir Kapoor and Yash’s “Ramayana” sequel, referred to as “Ramayana 2,” are reportedly considering a delay to move the release from Diwali 2027 to Diwali 2028. The main reason cited across reports is the need for additional time to complete large action and war sequences.
Times of India and India Today both frame the potential miss of the Diwali 2027 window as being driven by production timelines, pointing to pending war or major shooting requirements. NDTV similarly reports that the Diwali 2028 shift would allow makers more time to finish filming action sequences.
In the broader release context, Times of India also adds that the first part, “Ramayana: Rise of a Legend,” is set for November 5, 2026, situating the sequel’s scheduling within the franchise’s nearer-term rollout. Overall, the outlets largely agree on the nature of the production holdup, even as they vary in how definitively they present the delay.
