The teaser of Ramayana was unveiled in a grand manner on July 3 and it got an unanimously positive response. Two days later, a report in a newspaper emerged that besides the principal cast mentioned on the poster, the film also stars Anil Kapoor, Adinath Kothare, Vikrant Mblockey, Vivek Oberoi and many others. This article re-ignited speculation that even Bobby Deol stars in the film. Some even speculated that the actor would be seen in the film as Kumbhakaran. It led to curiosity as his brother Sunny Deol stars in the film as Lord Hanuman.
EXCLUSIVE: Bobby Deol NOT playing Kumbhkaran in Ramayana; is not a part of Ranbir Kapoor-Sai Pallavi-Yash starrer
Bollywood Hungama, however, has learned that Bobby Deol is not a part of Ramayana in any capacity. A trade source told us, “The reports are inaccurate. His name just cropped up all of a sudden.”
The source further said, “Ramayana is one of the most anticipated upcoming films of 2026. Given the scale of the project, casting speculations have been rife, but it is important to separate facts from rumours. Here’s hoping all the speculation regarding Bobby Deol’s involvement in Ramayana is put to rest soon.”
Ramayana stars Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman and Sunny Deol as Hanuman.
