Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor, who is essaying the role of Lord Rama in Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, recently revealed that he used to tell Ramayana stories to his daughter, Raha. The actor recalled her adorable reaction to the stories, saying she would ask him if he shot with Lord Hanuman or Sita that day.
Ranbir said, “I was extremely blessed to have this opportunity that coincided with me becoming a father. On one side, I am going to work and play Lord Rama, but I am also going home and telling my daughter, Raha, stories about Ramayana.”
He added, “She has so much interest in this story, which tells that this is in our DNA. The culture is so seeped into our subconscious that it comes very naturally — the love and interest come very naturally to us.”
Ranbir also revealed that he initially rejected the film, thinking he was not ready to play Lord Rama. However, the birth of his daughter changed things for him.
