New Delhi, Nov. 12 -- Bringing Ravana's larger-than-life presence to the screen in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana involved more than elaborate sets and visual effects. Actor Yash's costumes were designed to reflect the mythological king's imposing appearance, with some outfits weighing as much as 33 kg.

In an interaction with India Today, costume stylist and designer Saniya Sardhariya shared details of the work involved in creating Yash's look, including the challenges posed by the heavy costumes, jewellery, crown and prosthetics.

She also spoke about the actor's involvement in the creative process and how he kept the crew entertained despite the physical demands of wearing the elaborate outfits during long shooting schedules.
