Ranbir Kapoor is in the news these days for his upcoming film Ramayana. The first look of the film was released on Thursday in which a glimpse of Ranbir Kapoor and South superstar Yash was seen. However their full look has not been revealed yet. In this film Ranbir will be seen in the role of Lord Shri Ram and Yash in the role of Ravana. But very few people would know that another superstar was the first choice for this movie. Bollywood Superstar Hrithik Roshan Here we are talking about the handsome hunk of Bollywood Hrithik Roshan who has portrayed many characters on the big screen in his career. He was the first choice for the makers of Ramayana but he was getting the role of Ravana and not Lord Ram. Actually the makers first wanted to cast Hrithik Roshan in the role of a villain but he rejected this offer for one reason. The One Reason Due To Which Hrithik Roshan Rejected Ramayana According to a Bollywood Hungama report Hrithik Roshan was approached to play Raavan in the film Ramayana. This was going to be the first onscreen collaboration of the two stars. It was also reported that Hrithik loved the script but he has already played negative roles in several films (Dhoom 2 and Vikram Vedha). So he was not excited about playing the role of a villain. Hrithik believed that the audience still sees him as a hero so he decided to stay away from this role and turned down the project which made the makers look for a Raavan who could bring the same grandeur and charisma to the screen as Hrithik. Finally KGF superstar Yash was finalized for the role as his great screen presence and huge fan base make him the perfect choice for the role.
