Finally, D-day is here. With the whole nation excited about the Prana Partishta of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya, the days of waiting for the inauguration of the Ayodhya temple are over. Ahead of the inauguration, check out the films based on Srimad Ramayanam to watch on this auspicious day.
Setu Bandhan-1932
This epic based on Ramayanam was directed by the Father of Indian Cinema, Dadasaheb Phalke. Interestingly, it was a silent film that failed to gain the attention of the audience back then.
Rama Rajya-1943
This is a black-and-white feature film helmed by Vijay Bhatt. This was considered one of the early attempts at adapting the Ramayanam.
Sampoorna Ramayanam-1958
Everything about this film is legendary. N.T Rama Rao has gained a lot of love from the Indian audience for his performance as lord Sri Rama, while Shivaji Ganeshan is portrayed as Bharata. This epic film is one of the classics and directed by Bapu.
PS: Do you know that the film was so classic back then that the neighboring states prayed for the portrayal of Sr NTR as Lord Rama?
Sita Rama Kalyanam-1961
This, also starring Sr NTR, is considered one of the epics till today and is one of the highest IMDB ratings, but N.T. Rama Rao will be seen as Ravana in this film.
Ramayana: The Legend Of Prince-1992
This Japanese animation on the Yuddh Kaand of Ramayana is so apt that all the young cine-goers still consider this film to rewatch the Ramayanam. This is also the first time Japanese and Indian Anime collaboration happened.
