The Hindi version of Telugu blockbuster Sita Ramam is set to premiere on November 18 on Disney+ Hotstar, the streamer announced Wednesday. Starring Dulquer Salmaan, Rashmika Mandanna and Mrunal Thakur, the romance drama opened in theatres on August 5 and released globally on Prime Video in September in Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu language. Salmaan said he feels extremely fortunate to be a part of a film like Sita Ramam, which is universal. "It is visually spectacular, which is why it has struck a chord with the audience. I am sure that with more people getting to watch in Hindi on Disney+ Hotstar, they will get struck by its beautiful cinematography and unique story," the actor said in a statement.
Thakur, who made her Telugu debut with the movie, said she is thrilled to present the film to new set of audiences on OTT.
"I am excited that now a whole new base of audiences will view the film in Hindi on Disney+ Hotstar and fall in love with Sita and Ram's story," Thakur said.
Director Hanu Raghavapudi, who has also penned the script, said Sita Ramam was created on a large canvas with the vision of breaking language barriers.
"Its relatable storyline features a romance that can be understood and enjoyed by everyone. I am excited for the film to be released on Disney+ Hotstar in Hindi," Raghavapudi said.
"Sita Ramam" narrates a love story through letters between Princess Noor Jahan alias Sita Mahalakshmi (Thakur) and Lieutenant Ram (Salmaan).
