Ramayana Part 1 ends at a cliffhanger, reveals Nitesh Tiwari; Yash had to keep ideology aside to play Ravana
While interacting with the media at the event, the Kannada star opened up about his experience of playing the role of Ravana in the film. He recalled keeping his ideology aside to understand the emotion of his character. When asked about essaying the role of Ravana by a reporter, Yash replied, “This is a character which is so popular. Imagine, after thousands of years, they still burn your effigy every year. My grandfather used to tell me these stories. As a kid, in my head, I believed that this is the bad guy. As we understand the story, the greatest villains or characters which remain in your memory are the ones who have a really good cause in their head. Many people have played this character in many ways, I had to make him look relatable. That was something which was challenging and that was my only preparation.”The actor then recalled the physical and mental preparation that goes behind playing such a complex character in Ramayana. “Physically, you have to look the part. You should look tough. You should look like somebody who can take on anybody. More than that, I think the way you have to look is one part of it, I never gave much importance to it. But, the internal thing is what I enjoy as an actor. You need to hit those nodes. How would I be? What is his state of mind in this particular minute?” he shared.
