The trailer was made public early Thursday morning at 4:15 AM, generating considerable excitement among fans who were eager to hear Alia's thoughts. Known for her supportive nature, Alia often utilizes her social media platforms to promote Ranbir's projects, making her reaction to this trailer particularly awaited by their followers.

Late on Thursday night, Alia took to Instagram to share her excitement about the trailer.

This collective enthusiasm from the film fraternity highlights the anticipation surrounding the project, which is set to be a significant cinematic event.

The film Ramayana holds special significance for both Alia and Ranbir, as it marks their daughter Raha Kapoor's first experience watching a film in theaters. Ranbir recently attended the San Diego Comic-Con 2026, where he officially launched the trailer and expressed his excitement about taking Raha to see the film on the big screen. In addition to this personal milestone, Ranbir will portray a dual role in the film, taking on the characters of Ram and Parshurama. He has shared that preparing for these roles involved a year of dedicated study, focusing on the distinct spiritual and emotional attributes of each character. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, Ramayana: Part 1 is scheduled for release during the Diwali season in 2026, with a sequel expected to follow in 2027. The film features a talented cast, including Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Yash as Ravana, who is also a co-producer. As the release date approaches, excitement continues to build around this ambitious adaptation of the classic tale.
