AI recreates Ramayana cast in classic TV style
Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana will have the unenviable task of living up to the high benchmark set by Ramanand Sagar’s era-defining TV show, Ramayan. The show, which aired on Doordarshan from 1987-88, is widely considered the most influential Indian TV show of all time, setting the template for how the epic should be adapted. The new film will invariably be measured up to it. Days after the teaser of Ramayana was released, digital artists used AI to put the cast of the new film in the style of the vintage TV show, and the internet is all for it.
On Friday, Siddhanta Abhishek (@myinternetiscrazy on Instagram) shared a carousel post on the platform featuring AI-generated pictures of the Ramayana film. “Ranbir and Sai Pallavi directed by Ramanand Sagar,” the caption simply read.
