Amitabh Bachchan takes dig at Aussie media for comparing Kohli to Trump

Highlights:

• Sadhguru joked that villains usually have a 'blunt nose', not a sharp one like Yash.
• Namit Malhotra said they needed a “superstar-level person” for the complex role of Ravana.
• The duo discussed Yash, Ranbir Kapoor, and the massive scale of Ramayana.
• Part one of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana is expected to release on Diwali 2026.

When Ramayana producer Namit Malhotra sat down with spiritual leader Sadhguru to discuss the much-awaited mythological film, things took a light turn. The conversation, meant to be about the making of the film, turned into an unscripted moment when Sadhguru asked why a “handsome man like Yash” had been cast as the villain Ravana.
