Namit Malhotra and Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana is undeniably one of the most highly anticipated projects in Indian cinema. With a stellar cast featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Sunny Deol, Yash, Ravi Dubey, and Sai Pallavi in lead roles, the buzz around the film is already sky-high. Recently, Sunny Deol admitted to feeling both fear and nervousness while confirming that the shoot will commence soon. Now, fresh reports suggest that Amitabh Bachchan will not only lend his voice to the character of Jatayu but also serve as the film’s narrator.
Ramayana from Jatayu’s POV?
According to a report in Mid-Day, an insider revealed, “We’re exploring the idea of having Bachchan as the sutradhar. His voice adds gravitas that no one else can match. The makers are keen that the film opens with his voice.”
The source further added, “It’s still at the discussion stage. While the clash is a concern, there will be ways to work it out on a creative level. Having him open the film and be the spiritual narrator will have a strong impact.”
Big B’s deep, resonant baritone has long been one of his most iconic traits. If he indeed voices Jatayu and narrates the story, it would add unmatched gravitas, authority, spiritual depth, and cinematic appeal to Ramayana.

Amitabh Bachchan on Facing Age-Related Issues
At 82, Amitabh Bachchan continues to command unmatched respect in Indian cinema. Yet, as he revealed in his personal blog, age has brought new challenges that demand caution in daily life.
He admitted that even simple tasks like wearing trousers are no longer effortless, and doctors have advised him to sit while dressing to avoid imbalance. To ensure safety, handrails have been installed throughout his residence, Jalsa, while his routine is now guided by doctors with breathing practices and light exercises.
Bachchan’s candid reflections serve as both a reality check and an inspiration. Despite physical limitations, the Kalki 2898 AD star continues to embody resilience, proving that while age may slow the body, the spirit remains unshaken.
