Given its massive scale, reported budget, and the expectations riding on it, the anticipation is hardly surprising. While the makers are yet to unveil the film’s teaser or trailer, they earlier this year released a promotional glimpse introducing Ranbir Kapoor’s look as Lord Rama.

While he later deleted the comment, screenshot of an Instagram comment by Dhruv has gone viral on Reddit, in which he responded to a user asking whether the VFX work …
