India's most expensive film made at ₹835 cr, VFX & music by Oscar winners; not Kalki 2898 AD, Brahmastra, Adipurush
The budgets of Indian films are steadily rising, now rivalling those of major Hollywood productions. In fact, it's become quite common for Indian movies to cross the ₹ 100 crore mark. Taking this trend to new heights, one film has emerged as the most expensive ever made in Indian cinema, with a whopping budget of ₹ 835 crore, surpassing even big-ticket films like Kalki 2898 AD, Brahmastra, and Adipurush. The most expensive film in India is Nitesh Tiwari's magnum opus Ramayana Part 1. Ramayana is a two-part epic mythological film. It stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravana and Ravi Dubey as Lakshman. Sunny Deol will be seen as Hanuman. Lara Dutta, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Vivek Oberoi, Arun Govil are also a part of the film's ensemble cast. Kunal Kapoor, Arun Govil, Sheeba Chadha, and Indira Krishnan are also a part of the film. According to a report by Bollywood Hungama last year, Ramayana is being built on a budget of $100 million (around ₹ 835 crore). The film is still under production. With its over ₹ 800 crore budget, it has outpaced the production costs of big-budget films, including Kalki 2898 AD ( ₹ 600 crore), RRR and Adipurush ( ₹ 550 crore each). Brahmastra Part One which previously held the record as Bollywood's most expensive film at ₹ 375 crore, stands nowhere close to Ramayana's budget. Ramayana Part 1 is backed by Namit Malhotra, owner of the global media giant Prime Focus. He is also the CEO of DNEG, the acclaimed British-Indian VFX powerhouse known for its cutting-edge visual effects, which has of eight Academy Awards for Best Visual Effects.

On Thursday, the first look of Ramayana was unveiled by the makers. The film is scheduled to be released on Diwali 2026. It will be followed by part 2.

Difficult to change title: Janaki vs State of Kerala director on board's demand
Director Pravin Narayanan has defended the title of 'Janaki vs State of Kerala', suggesting that changing it at this stage is impractical. The release of the Malayalam film, starring minister Suresh Gopi and Anupama Parameswaran, has been delayed following a demand from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to change its title. The CBFC cited religious concerns, noting that 'Janaki' refers to the Hindu goddess Sita, and their objection to using the name for a sexual assault filmmaker said, "We accept that Janaki is also another name for Goddess Sita, but it's such a common name used in many parts of the country. Through our movie, we never tried to defame Goddess Sita or any other belief system reluctant in our country."He further added, 'Maybe CBFC could have had a different perspective for the name of character. We are on the final stage of production and to rename the character at this stage is difficult for us.' Film associations across Kerala have rallied against the CBFC's request, arguing that it constitutes unnecessary interference in artistic expression. The Kerala High Court has also raised questions regarding the CBFC's decision, pointing out that the film's trailer was approved without film was originally set for release on 20 June, but the conflict has led to significant delays. The film's creators have expressed frustration, describing the CBFC's demands as "arbitrary" and "unwarranted."The Kerala High Court has asked the CBFC to provide a detailed explanation by July 2. Until a resolution is reached, the film's fate hangs in the balance, with Narayanan and his team hoping for a favourable outcome. Meanwhile, the court will watch the film on July 5 and will share its views in the next hearing, scheduled on July court's enquiry into why the film's name should be altered, especially when films named after deities are common in Indian cinema, casts doubt on the CBFC's film stars Suresh Gopi and Anupama Parameswaran in lead roles. The film community and supporters continue to advocate for its release under its original title.- Ends
