On the occasion of Dussehra, the makers of the film 'Ramayana' unveiled actor Yash as Ravana. The video, which focuses on Ravana’s devotion to Lord Shiva, offers a glimpse into the various facets of his character ahead of the film's release.

A Glimpse of Ravana on Dussehra
Actor Yash plays the role of Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari’s 'Ramayana'. To mark Dussehra, the filmmakers shared a new look at his character with fans. Titled 'Rise of Asura' in its Hindi version, the video showcases Yash in a completely transformed avatar. The music for this piece is composed by A.R. Rahman, with lyrics penned by Dr. Kumar Vishwas, and the Hindi version features vocals by Vishal Dadlani.

Ravana, Immersed in Devotion to Shiva
The video begins with Ravana slicing his own palm with a blade and applying a *tripundra* (a three-lined mark) on his forehead as part of a ritual. After performing an *aarti* before a colossal statue of Lord Shiva, he begins the *Tandava* dance—a sequence charged with intense energy. This glimpse gives fans an insight into the level of preparation Yash has put into his character.

The Power of the Shiva Tandava
The first installment of 'Ramayana' explores the devotion and prowess of the character before he becomes 'Lankesh' (the ruler of Lanka). In this one-minute-55-second sequence, Yash is remarkably compelling as Ravana. He is seen dancing to the rhythm of the 'Shiva Tandava Stotram', illustrating his profound dedication to Lord Shiva.

Yash and His Long-standing Connection with Action
Kannada cinema superstar Yash will be seen portraying Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming film, 'Ramayana'. Having already made a strong impression with his powerful performance in 'KGF', Yash has fans eagerly anticipating his portrayal of Ravana. The film will also feature Ranbir Kapoor in the role of Lord Rama. It will be interesting to see how this character, played by Yash, portrays the power, ambition, and ego of Ravana.
