Quick answer: The Ramayana: Part One trailer is set for a worldwide premiere on Friday, July 24, 2026. The date has been announced, but the makers have not confirmed an exact public drop time. Clips from a closed preview are already circulating, but they are not the official online trailer.
That distinction matters. Nitesh Tiwari’s epic has already shown its trailer to invited audiences in New Delhi, and the next big stop is San Diego Comic-Con. The public release on July 24 is the moment fans around the world will finally get the official version rather than shaky leaks and second-hand reports.
The official trailer is not online yet. The video above is the earlier “Rama” promotional reveal released by Sony Music India.
When will the Ramayana trailer release worldwide?
The confirmed worldwide trailer date is July 24, 2026. No exact online release time has been announced, so any countdown claiming a specific hour should be treated carefully unless it comes from the film’s official channels.
Before the worldwide drop, the team is scheduled to take Ramayana to San Diego Comic-Con. A panel featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Yash, director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra is planned for July 23 in San Diego, which falls in the early hours of July 24 in India. That gives the trailer rollout a genuinely global launch rather than a standard social-media upload.
What happened at the Delhi trailer preview?
The makers held a special event called Pratham Sankalp in New Delhi on July 18. Invited guests received the first exclusive look at the trailer, while the film’s principal cast appeared together publicly as the global campaign began.
That preview explains why commentary and unofficial phone-recorded clips are appearing before July 24. Fans should avoid treating those fragments as the finished release. They lose the image quality, sound design and scale that a film made for IMAX is clearly trying to sell.
How long is the Ramayana trailer?
Two trailer cuts have reportedly received a U certificate from the CBFC. One runs for four minutes, while another runs for four minutes and 15 seconds. The makers have not said which version will be released online, so the safest confirmed detail is that viewers can expect an unusually substantial first trailer.
A longer cut makes sense for this project. The campaign has to introduce a vast world, establish its central characters and show why this two-part adaptation is being positioned as a major theatrical event. The trailer will also carry the pressure of answering questions about the film’s visual effects, performances and tone.
Who plays Rama, Sita and Ravana?
Ranbir Kapoor plays Rama, Sai Pallavi plays Sita and Yash plays Ravana. The confirmed principal cast also includes Ravie Dubey as Lakshman and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. Nitesh Tiwari directs the film, with Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios presenting it in association with DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations.
The music is another major draw. A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer are composing for the project, giving the trailer’s sound and score almost as much curiosity value as its first full look at the cast.
When does Ramayana: Part One release in theatres?
Ramayana: Part One is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release during Diwali 2026. Part Two is planned for Diwali 2027. Both chapters are being mounted for the big screen, including IMAX presentation.
For now, July 24 is the date to remember. Until the official upload appears, the cleanest way to follow this rollout is through verified film and studio accounts, not reposted preview footage. You can also check our theatrical releases hub for more big-screen date and trailer updates.
