As per reports, before the first set of filming for Ramayana, Yash is expected to go to the Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga Temple in Ujjain. This temple pilgrimage is important not just for the actor on a personal level, but also because it also sets the spiritual atmosphere for a film that has Indian mythology and culture at its core. The film also casts Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash, who plays a strong yet undisclosed character that many believe is Ravana, under the direction of Nitesh Tiwari.

We had reported about Simran’s speech at the JFW award  event and that  she was talking about Jyothika who acted in Dabba Cartel Hindi web series. Read; https://southfilmy.blogspot.com/2025/04/vijay-re-release-opened-bigger-than.html

Simran had played the college Principal in Ziddi Girls the Hindi web series. Both were streamed in February end and in a day difference. ZIddi streamed on Amazon Prime and Dabba on Netflix. According to Simran the actress who she congratulated replied that it was better than playing aunty roles and that it was referring to her present on screen roles . Could it not be the actress was talking about her own choice of roles ?

Anyway, the latest to this episode is that JFW show that hardly created any ripple in March is now doing so with the Simran portion alone coming on X and YouTube . Is this a promotion for Tourist Family releasing in May 2 and starring Simran and Sasikumar. Incidentally Jyothika is co- producer of Retro starring her hubby Suriya and releasing on May 1.
