Fans were eagerly anticipating the unveiling of the much-anticipated trailer of Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana at 8 AM today at San Diego Comic-Con. However, late last night the producer announced on social media that the trailer will now be released globally at a later date.
Disappointed fans have been flooding social media with overwhelmed reactions as soon as the news went viral.
Internet Reactions
One Sai Pallavi fan page wrote, “Dear Namit Malhotra and the Ramayana Team, we understand that a project as big as Ramayana can face unexpected challenges and delays. We assume there may be a genuine reason behind the trailer not being released as announced. But as part of the vast Sai Pallavi fan network, we are deeply disappointed by the decision to postpone the trailer at the very last moment. We strongly feel that such an important announcement should have been handled with better planning and communication.”
The post added, “What hurts even more is that the trailer was screened for a selective audience, and some of them were not responsible enough to protect the content. As a result, valuable assets have already started leaking online. At the same time, genuine fan clubs and the general audience, who are the real backbone of every successful film, were left waiting.”

Someone else added, “What exactly is going on with Namit Malhotra’s #Ramayana? Delaying the trailer just hours before launch without a clear explanation only frustrates the fans who’ve been waiting so patiently. Hype is built on trust-don’t test it. #RamayanaTrailer.”
