Ramayana trailer to release tomorrow; makers host special screenings across 16 cities and 400+ schools ahead of launch
The makers of Ramayana have intensified promotions ahead of the film’s trailer launch by organising a series of special screenings across India. As excitement continues to build around the Nitesh Tiwari directorial, the promotional campaign reached audiences in 16 cities and more than 400 schools, with thousands of students participating in activities centred around the epic.
According to the makers, the screenings were part of a nationwide initiative aimed at introducing younger audiences to the story of the Ramayana. Alongside the screenings, students also took part in a creative competition that encouraged them to depict their imagination of the epic through artwork.
The events witnessed participation from students, families, fans, creators, and members of the film fraternity. The makers shared that the screenings received an enthusiastic response, with audiences applauding the visuals and visual effects showcased during the presentations. Chants of ‘Jai Shri Ram’ were also heard at several venues as attendees reacted to the footage.
Sharing glimpses from the nationwide campaign on social media, the makers wrote, “From classrooms to cinema halls, Ramayana became more than an epic, it found its way into homes across India. The dawn of Ramayana begins with our trailer on 30 July 2026, Thursday at 4:15 AM IST Worldwide.”
