02 May 2026

Kannada superstar Yash has been shooting for the second part of Ramayana since April.

The actor is playing Ravana, and reports say that his scenes are written as extended monologues to help the audience understand his character better.

The sequences are being filmed at Film City, Goregaon, and delve into Ravana's psyche and worldview.

Director Nitesh Tiwari is taking his time with these scenes, knowing that the emotional weight of the second part depends on whether viewers can empathize with Ravana's viewpoint.

A Mid-Day report quoted a source as saying, "These aren't typical villain scenes."

"They are written as extended monologues, almost like Ravana is reasoning with himself."

"The idea is to let the audience understand how he sees the world before they judge his actions."
