Ramayana: Ravie Dubey unveils new Lakshman poster ahead of November 5 release; actor calls role an “honour and a responsibility”

The makers of Ramayana have unveiled a new solo character poster featuring Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. The reveal offers a closer look at the actor’s portrayal of Lord Rama’s younger brother, one of the central figures in the epic, just days ahead of the film’s scheduled worldwide theatrical release on November 5.

In the newly released poster, Ravie is seen in a warrior stance, holding a bow and arrow. The visual presents Lakshman as a battle-ready figure and follows a composition similar to the previously unveiled poster of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, placing the two brothers within a shared visual framework.

Introducing the character on social media, the makers shared the caption, “A devoted brother. A fearless warrior. Rama’s shield.” Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. The character is known in the epic for his devotion to Rama, loyalty and role as his younger brother and companion through several pivotal events.

Speaking about taking on the role, Ravie Dubey said, "Playing Lakshman is an emotion that is difficult to put into words. He represents a rare combination of strength, courage, devotion and selflessness. His unwavering commitment to Lord Rama and the values he stands for has always been deeply inspiring. To be entrusted with bringing such a revered character to life is both an honour and a responsibility that I hold very close to my heart. I hope audiences connect with the sincerity and spirit with which we have approached this character."
