It is a tale most Indians know by heart. But the film makes it work by evoking the simplicity of Ramayana and blending it with animation that has stood the test of time.

This film doesn’t simply narrate an ancient myth; it holds up a mirror to contemporary issues, offering a gentle yet firm critique of the violence, division, and militarism that pervades modern geopolitics.

The most Awaited Movie In Bharat in Year2024. Its simply a LEGEND. No other TV show or movie is gonna be comparable to this. All Movies that were made based on Our History of Shri Ramayanam failed to deliver the mere essence of this Epic, but this Animated movie did deliver it very well. a heartfelt thanks of a Bharatiya to JAPAN for this. Millions and trillions of Thanks to Yugo Saki ji and complete team for making this possible. I truly feel blessed to be born in this era as I was able to eye-witness two 'once a lifetime' events, namely, Re-integration of SHRI-RAM temple and This movie dedicated on Life of SHRI RAM. Jai shri Ram

I watched this movie again after an abomination of a movie released recently. This is such justice, good music, good voice cast, this is one way for children to know their Ramayan in a brief format, the highlight is that no one will forget this. This should be remastered and released in India
