Sadhguru on trolls over Ranbir as Ram in Ramayana

Sadhguru on trolls over Ranbir as Ram in Ramayana. Ever since Ranbir Kapoor was cast as Lord Ram in the prestigious project Ramayana directed by Nitesh Tiwari, many started trolling.

Following this, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev speaking to scribes shared his thoughts on it. He told the producer Namit Malhotra,  “If they have sense, they should become. It’s an opportunity that you get to play the role of Rama, so you'd better transform yourself. When will you do it in your life? At the same time, there will be a certain unrealistic expectation.”

Citing the example of Sr NTR, he said “There was NT Rama Rao in Telugu films, who people worshipped as Krishna because he played him in some 15-16 movies. They put huge cutouts of him playing the flute, and he won the election outright. At one time, it was absolutely so. To some extent, it is still there. If you act like Rama in a movie, I expect you to have some gentleness. But it’s unfair to the actor because, after all, it’s a profession. He’s just acting. Hope acting like Rama brings some elements of him into the actor, which will be wonderful for him.”

On trolls on Ranbir, he said  “It is not a fair judgment because he acted in some way (in the past). Tomorrow, in another movie, he may act as Ravana. That is a professional actor. But at the same time, your movie runs because of people, not because of actors or directors. So, their expectations cannot be completely brushed aside. It’s a very onerous expectation, but I think the actor and director making Ramayana should imbibe a bit of Ram’s quality.”
