Ravie Dubey shares Lakshmana's emotional moment, thanks fans for 'Ramayana' trailer love
Mumbai, August 5
Actor Ravie Dubey has expressed much gratitude toward the audience for their warm response to the 'Ramayana' trailer.
Ravie shared glimpses of his character as Lakshmana, offering a brief snippet of a crucial moment from the story when his mother, Queen Sumitra, instructed him to follow his elder brother, Rama, on his 14-year exile.
"'Regard Rama as your father Dasharatha; regard Sita as myself (your mother); look upon the forest as Ayodhya itself. Depart happily, my dear child!' From the Valmiki Ramayana (Ayodhya Kanda). Maa Sumitra gives her final instructions to Lakshmana right before he leaves for the 14-year exile," Ravie Dubey wrote in his caption.
Concluding the note, he added, "Thank you for your love to us."
Speaking to ANI, Ravie earlier spoke about portraying Lakshmana and shared, "I am excited, with surrender if I can articulate it correctly. Every time I think about the film, every time I think about Ramayana, that's the one feeling I have in my heart: surrender."
The trailer of 'Ramayana' was recently released and opened with the introduction of Yash as Ravana. He is seen emerging from the shadows before entering his grand palace and declaring his rule over the three worlds.
As darkness spreads, Lord Vishnu is reborn on Earth as Prince Rama. Ranbir Kapoor appears as Lord Rama, while Arun Govil plays King Dasharatha, introducing Rama to the people of Ayodhya.
The trailer also gives a glimpse of Rama and Sita's wedding, with Sai Pallavi playing Sita. The emotional moments continue as Rama accepts Kaikeyi's wish and begins his 14-year exile along with his brother Lakshmana, played by Ravie Dubey.
Apart from Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash and Ravie Dubey, the film also stars Sunny Deol as Hanuman. The music has been composed by Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman.
'Ramayana: Part 1' is scheduled to release in theatres during Diwali 2026, while 'Ramayana: Part 2' is expected to arrive during Diwali 2027.

I'm not Indian but I've always been fascinated by the Ramayana. The trailer looks absolutely stunning and the emotional depth of the story really comes through. Can't wait for 2026!
Hans Zimmer AND AR Rahman composing together? That's going to be magical. Also, Ravie Dubey's humility in his approach to this character is really touching. 🙏
I wonder how they'll balance the scale with Yash as Ravana. He's got massive screen presence. Also, waiting for Diwali 2026 seems forever but this could be a once-in-a-generation film.
Sumitra's words are pure gold - they teach us the essence of sacrifice and duty. I'm a bit concerned about commercialization of our sacred text, but I trust the makers have done their research. The trailer does look grand, no doubt about that.
The loyalty between Rama and Lakshmana is the greatest example of brotherhood ever told. Ravie seems perfect for the role - his sincerity is visible in the trailer. Jai Shri Ram! 🚩
As someone who grew up reading Amar Chitra Katha versions of Ramayana, seeing this epic come to life with this kind of production value is surreal
