India, July 30 -- The official trailer of Ramayana, Nitesh Tiwari's adaptation of the epic, was unveiled today at 4:15 am, during the brahma muhurat. The trailer gave the much awaited glimpse into the world of the mythological epic which introduces Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshman and Yash in the role of Ravana.

The trailer opens with Ravana (Yash) arriving at a palace and knocking on its massive doors, only to receive a hostile welcome. Unfazed, he responds with brute force and declares that it marks the beginning of "Ravana Raaj."

As fear spreads among gods and kings over the darkness that lies ahead, Lord Vishnu is reborn on Earth as Prince Ram, the son of Ayodhya's King Dasharatha (Arun Govil)....
