The makers of Ranbir Kapoor’s much-awaited movie, Ramayana, recently released the teaser of the film in Los Angeles. Interestingly, it has not been released in India yet and is scheduled to be out on April 2. This has left Ranbir’s fans in the country disappointed and upset.
Recently, several netizens took to their respective X handles and asked the makers of Ramayana the reason for releasing the teaser in LA before India. While some claimed that the makers of Nitesh Tiwari’s directorial are only interested in making money by selling the film to the NRIs, others argued that the decision is disrespectful and has hurt their sentiments.
“What’s wrong with India. It’s an Indian movie why not India first,” one of the users wrote. “Just to create hyper
in India the drama is going on..Ramayana is our story..why first glimpse in another country………producer only wants money.. where are the emotions of our people,” added another. “So the absolute first people to ever see this are in Los Angeles, not India? Wow got it! At least Varanasi event was in, you know, India!” a third user wrote.
