Read what Yash said
Yash said- I was in talks with a VFX studio in Los Angeles. I was very surprised to know that the person running that VFX studio is an Indian (Namit Malhotra). Namit and I talked about many ideas. The film Ramayana was also discussed in the conversation. It was revealed that Namit Malhotra is already associated with this film. I have been very connected with Ramayana. Thinking this, I took up the responsibility of co-producing the film.
Yash basically does Kannada language films. He got global recognition due to both the KGF films.

I have been living in the US and UK for the last several years. Many films made by my company have won Oscars. Now I am ready to spend all my energy for Ramayana. Apart from this, I am excited to work with Yash also. Yash has always been very serious about his culture. I think I could not have found a better partner than Yash.
