‘Ramayana’: Ranbir Kapoor Asks MrBeast To Chant ‘Jai Shree Ram’ During Event
Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor prompted American YouTuber MrBeast to chant 'Jai Shri Ram' during a promotional event for Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming film 'Ramayana' in Mumbai on Saturday. The moment was captured on video and circulated widely on social media.
Mumbai, September 26: Famous American YouTuber MrBeast attended a Mumbai event for Nitesh Tiwari's 'Ramayana' alongside Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Ravie Dubey, and Namit Malhotra. During the event, one of the paparazzi said, "Jai Shri Ram, Mr Beast." As the YouTuber got confused what he should say, Ranbir told Mr Beast to reply by saying, "Jai Shri Ram." The YouTuber quickly chanted "Jai Shri Ram." Ranbir, who will be seen as Lord Ram in the highly anticipated project, also went on to explain the meaning of Dharma during the event.
He said, “Ramayana and Shri Ram are deeply etched in our subconscious mind. Lord Rama never tried to be a hero; he is called Maryada Purushottam, which means ideal man. He was born as a prince and could have had everything, but he sacrificed it all to fulfil his father’s promise and his duties. There is a term called Dharma, which means duties. He is the perfect man, and I hope through this film, you could have a brief introduction to our culture and history.” ‘Ramayana’: Ranbir Kapoor Lifts Shiv Dhanush at Event.
