Rakul Preet Singh, who plays Surpanakha in the upcoming film “Ramayana,” says the character is often misunderstood and has a layered story that deserves fuller attention. The actor expresses enthusiasm for the role and hopes audiences will connect with Surpanakha’s journey when the film releases.
Across the coverage, outlets focus on Singh’s approach to portraying Surpanakha “with different shades.” She presents the role as more than a single-dimensional character, highlighting the complexity she found in the character work. The framing remains centered on interpretation and performance, rather than on plot details or production changes.
One outlet also places additional emphasis on the film’s scale and release timing, noting it is an ambitious retelling of Indian history and that Part 1 is scheduled for November 5, 2026. Overall, the sources largely align on Singh’s characterization of Surpanakha as layered and misunderstood, while differing mainly in how much context about the film and its release they provide.
