“Ramayana” producer Namit Malhotra says “Ramayana 2” will be released during Diwali 2028 and that the decision on whether to expand the project into a trilogy will depend on how audiences respond to Part 1.
Times of India reports that Malhotra is open to a “Ramayana trilogy” based on audience feedback, and it adds that the first film has been prepared in two versions aimed at different audiences. It also notes key production details, including the cast featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi and music by Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman. NDTV frames the same core message around timing and pacing, emphasizing that the team is postponing Part 2 rather than rushing it, and that it wants to “do justice” to the sequel. Across outlets, the communications present the Diwali 2028 date as confirmed and the trilogy as contingent.
The main differences lie in emphasis: Times of India foregrounds the trilogy possibility and supplementary production particulars, while NDTV focuses more narrowly on postponement rationale and the conditional nature of additional installments.
