Ranbir Kapoor might replace Mahesh Babu in this big budget film

While On Raut's 'Adipurush' is already in the floors, there are plans for another Ramayan based film in Bollywood. Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu and Hrithik Roshan were supposed to play Lord Ram and Raavan in the film respectively and that gave the film an unreal hype. However, Mahesh Babu has turned down the project in favour of working with SS Rajamauli and now makers are looking for a replacement.
Buzz suggests that actor Ranbir Kapoor has been approached for the part. Although he's currently occupied with a Luv Ranjan film and Ayan Mukerji's 'Brahmastra', Ranbir has shown interest in the project.
A source close to the development shared, “Nitesh Tiwari is looking for the best-in-class actor who can completely devote himself to the character of Ram, and he believes Ranbir Kapoor perfectly fits the bill as he has that charming presence Nitesh is specifically seeking for in an actor. Ranbir is thrilled about this offer and will take a call after the full narration. He hasn’t given his nod yet, however, it’s very likely that he would okay the project.”
