Production schedule and timeline for Ramayana films
Earlier, a source had revealed to Pinkvilla that reports indicate that Tiwari and his crew are now filming "Ramayana" as a two-part epic also starring Sunny Deol. The producers have chosen a two-part technique to convey the story because of the film's scope and size. According to a source, 'Ramayana' will shoot concurrently, unlike most in the industry who wait for the first part's results before filming the second!
The insider went on to say that production on "Ramayana Part Two" will begin well in advance of the premiere of "Ramayana Part One." The crew has planned a 350-day production calendar for the two 'Ramayana' films. This timeline incorporates both solo and combined scenes with the extended star cast.
