He added that Raavan was the only character he could consider for the film.
Yash said that he was first introduced to Ramayan during a conversation with Nimat Malhotra, who is the co-producer of the film. Yash liked Nemat’s passion and vision for the film, which made him decide to play the role of Raavan.
The actor said, “It’s a very interesting role and if I had been asked to play any other role in Ramayan, I would probably have refused. The character of Raavan has a lot of depth and nuances to be portrayed in a unique way.” Maybe. I’m very passionate about bringing out different aspects of this character.”
