The Ramayana and Mahabharata are only the beginning. Indian civilisation holds countless untold stories of legendary warriors, kings, sages and tragic heroes. Here are 15 characters who could headline their own cinematic epics. 🧵

#Ramayana has the potential to become Indian cinema’s greatest triumph not just as a film, but as the beginning of an entirely new era of storytelling. Its success could pave the way for our culture, history and Dharma to find a global audience. Imagine a Mahabharata brought to life on an even more monumental scale, with ten times the ambition and resources. The stakes go far beyond a film’s success. This is a chance for India to tell its own stories on the grandest stage in the world, to bring our epics to life for generations, and to let stories that have endured for thousands of years finally receive the global recognition they deserve.
