Will Sai Pallavi play Sita to Ranbir Kapoor's Rama in Madhu Mantena’s 'Ramayan'? Here’s what we know…

Madhu Mantena’s upcoming film, ‘Ramayan’ has been creating a strong buzz of late. According to a latest development, Sai Pallavi has been roped in to play the role of Sita in the movie.

Earlier the producers were in talks with Deepika Padukone to play Sita. But she apparently will be playing Draupadi for the same production house, and none of the other A-list heroines in Bollywood possess the old-world charm and grace to play Sita Mata, a report in Bollywood Hungama stated.

While the actress is yet to sign the dotted lines, reports are rife that the producers of ‘Ramayan’ are keen for Sai to play Sita. Ranbir Kapoor has already been roped in to essay the role of Lord Rama in the movie. Hrithik Roshan was supposed to play Ravana in the movie. However, he has reportedly opted out of the movie.

If the deal works out, this film will mark Sai’s Bollywood debut. The actress has won hearts of millions of her fans in films like, ‘Gargi’, ‘Shyama Singha Roy’ and ‘Virata Parvam’ down south.
