It was unbelievable."Chetan emphasised the significance of his role as Sumali, calling it “very crucial” to the film’s opening.

It’s a very crucial role… It starts with him. It’s one of the best shoots I’ve ever done in my life. I can’t say more, but it is by far the best shoot I’ve ever done…I’ve never seen anything like this. Even the people who had come from Hollywood were like, ‘Boss, this is something else'," Chetan added.About RamayanaDirected by Dangal and Chhichhore filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is being produced on a massive scale with a blend of Indian mythological storytelling and global production values.
