Shobana joins Ranbir’s Ramayana, feels honoured

Veteran actress Shobana has officially joined the cast of Nitesh Tiwari’s much-anticipated film Ramayana. She will reportedly portray Kaikasi, the mother of Ravana. Sharing her excitement, Shobana posted a glimpse video from the film on social media and wrote, Honoured to be part of a story that has shaped generations. Welcome to the world of Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana, the immortal story of Rama vs Ravana. Grateful to walk this path and share it with all of you. Our Truth. Our History.

The film stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana. Shobana’s casting has added to the growing excitement surrounding the project. Known for her grace and powerful screen presence, she is expected to bring depth and emotion to her role as Kaikasi—a character that reflects both maternal strength and ambition in Hindu mythology.

Fans were delighted to hear about Shobana’s addition to the film. Many took to the comments section to express their excitement, calling her participation a perfect fit for the epic tale. Comments ranged from praise for the film’s casting to admiration for Shobana’s continued legacy in Indian cinema.

Earlier this year, Shobana reunited with Mohanlal in Thudarum, marking their on-screen return after two decades. The film, directed by Tharun Moorthy, received praise from critics and audiences alike. With Ramayana, Shobana is once again ready to impress viewers in a grand mythological retelling.
