Meanwhile, He went on to praise Yash for his performance as Ravana, saying, “I must give compliment to Yash. The way he has performed in the movie, I think nobody could have done it. He is such a brilliant star. Jis tarah se unhone kiya hai woh role (The way he has performed that role), I think he is phenomenal. Isliye unko itna appreciation mil raha hai movie ke andar (I think that is why he is getting so much appreciation).”
Notably, Sharad also admitted that dubbing for Yash was not easy, given how well he had performed the role. “Mere ko thodi mushkil hui dub karne mein woh (I had some difficulty doing that), because he was so good in the movie. But, thank you, you all loved the movie, and loved the voice,” he added.

In further updates, Earlier, while in conversation with IGN, Yash spoke about the pressure of playing Ravana. He shared, “If you know the character and everybody is aware of it, then it becomes challenging. If it's a new movie where you are telling a new story, whatever you do, that will become the character. But if people already have some image about it since so many people have played it in different ways, then it's extra pressure for an star. But I stuck to very simple basics to understand what made him do such kind of things. The intent was important.”
On top of that, Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana. The movie is co-produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios and DNEG, along with Yash's Monster Mind Creations.
