As per a report in India Today, the shoot of 'Ramayana' has commenced with a pooja ceremony. The shoot has started with secondary artists and Ranbir will be joining the crew in the next few days.
Sources told the portal that Nitesh Tiwari and his team did a small pooja ceremony on 'Ramayana' set before the shoot to take blessings for the cast and crew.
Earlier, the same portal reported that Nitesh has hired a team to handle the diction and dialogue of ‘Ramayana.’ Also, special focus is on the costumes department of the epic drama and the appearance of the main characters. It is said to be made on a huge scale, and a lot of emphasis will be given on VFX.
The same report also stated that the ‘Dangal’ director has put a diction expert to work closely with Ranbir, for seamless dialogue delivery.
