Lately, Nitesh Tiwari and his ambitious project on Ramayana have been constantly in the headlines. Readers may recall that recently Bollywood Hungama had learned that KGF star Yash had undergone multiple look tests for the film for the role of Raavan and his finalisation is yet to be decided. The source also confirmed the speculations about Ranbir Kapoor's casting. Amid all the buzz, a latest report suggests that not Alia Bhatt, but South actress Sai Pallavi is likely to play the female lead.

As per a report by IndiaToday, since Alia Bhatt’s dates were not available, the Bollywood actress walked out of the project. The report has also speculated that Sai Pallavi is expected to replace the Highway actress.

Having said that, it is worth mentioning here that in our previous report, we had informed that a source close to the project confirmed that Alia Bhatt was not approached for the upcoming Nitesh Tiwari directorial. “In fact, the film has not yet reached the stage where they offer Sita’s role to anyone; nobody has been approached yet,” told the source to Bollywood Hungama.

The source had also added that Tiwari has always given a lot of time to his projects to complete, in order to achieve quality. “Nitesh Tiwari took two years for Dangal as well. He is a dedicated director and takes his own time to finish the good product. Dangal was announced in January 2014 and released in December 2016,” said the source.

By Banglore Film City
Akshaye Khanna’s 2021 action-packed OTT film State of Siege: Temple Attack is all set to make its theatrical debut under a brand-new title — Akshardham: Operation Vajra Shakti. Nearly five years after its digital premiere, the high-octane drama will hit cinema halls on July 4, 2025, offering audiences a gripping, large-screen retelling of one of India’s most harrowing terror incidents. Directed by Ken Ghosh, the film is a dramatic recreation of the 2002 terrorist attack on the Akshardham Temple in Gujarat. It captures the horror of the assault and the bravery of the National Security Guard (NSG) commandos who led the operation to neutralise the attackers.
