Popular Kannada actor Yash has already teamed up with Nitesh Tiwari to co-produce Ranbir Kapoor starrer epic film, Ramayana.
After he came on board, Yash has commented on why he decided to get his Monster Mind Creations to collaborate with Namit Malhotras Prime Focus Studios.
Speaking to Variety, Yash said, It has been my long-term aspiration to make films that will showcase Indian cinema on a global level. In pursuit of that, I was in L.A. to ally with one of the best VFX studios, and to my amazement, the driving force behind it was a fellow Indian. Namit and I had various ideation sessions, and coincidentally, our synergy on the vision for Indian cinema aligned perfectly.
We brainstormed various projects, and during these discussions, the subject of Ramayana came up. Namit had a part of it in the works. The Ramayana, as a subject, deeply resonates with me and I had an approach in my mind for it.
By joining forces to co-produce Ramayana we are bringing together our collective vision and experience to create an Indian film that will ignite excitement and passion in audiences across the world, the K.G.F. star added.
