Ranbir Kapoor will do complete justice to Lord Rama’s role, says Gurmeet Choudhary

Actor Gurmeet Choudhary, who gained the spotlight by playing Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar’s “Ramayan”, has expressed his confidence in Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor’s ability to excel in the same role in Nitesh Tiwary’s “Ramayana” alongside Sai Pallavi.

Gurmeet said, “Ranbir is an exceptional actor who brings every role to life. Audiences loved me as Ram because they saw the essence of Ram in me. I am confident that Ranbir will also do complete justice to this role.”

Gurmeet also reflected on playing the role in his early days.

“When I worked on Ramayan, I was just 23 years old. The show was produced by Ramanand Sagar, who also created the iconic “Ramayan” featuring Arun Govil sir. Before that, I was completely unknown to the audience and had never appeared on screen,” Gurmeet said.

He added, “That’s exactly what Ramanand Sagar believed in—when portraying a divine figure, the actor should have no prior public image or background, allowing viewers to connect with the character devotionally.”

Gurmeet was recently seen in “Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein: Season 2” for which he lost 10 kg for his look. To embody the intense and complex character, Gurmeet underwent rigorous preparation.
