He shared that he questioned whether he was worthy enough to portray the role, but over time, that fear turned into gratitude and love for the project.He said, “I understood not that it would be something like a career-defining move for me, but it was definitely life-defining, you know, it changed my life. It got me closer to understanding the Ramayana, to understanding Lord Rama’s journey. I think it made so many positive changes in my life. You know, my bad habits changed, it changed my value system, the way I look at life, the way I look at loss, the way I look at sacrifice, the way I look at Dharma, and I think I really needed that in my life.”The actor further spoke about how becoming a father and working on Ramayana happened simultaneously in his life, making the experience even more meaningful for him. He added, “It was such a sweet coincidence in my life. Raha made me a better person and Ramayana wanted me to be a better person for Raha, so everything was connected. Like I said, I was at the right place at the right time when a film of this magnitude was being made on our truth, on our culture, on our history in the most authentic way. It was just a blessing and I’m going to be grateful for all my life.”Ranbir and Alia Bhatt welcomed their daughter Raha in 2022. In 2023, the couple introduced her to the paparazzi and fans during Christmas celebrations, and her pictures quickly went viral online.
