Summarised from Chester Standard's report · Updated 5 Nov, 22:50 · Archive

Ramayana: Rise of a Legend, starring Ranbir Kapoor, screens at Vue Cheshire Oaks from 6 to 8 November.

Ramayana: Rise of a Legend, a retelling of the ancient Indian epic, will screen at Vue Cheshire Oaks from 6 to 8 November during Diwali. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Yash and Sai Pallavi and is directed by Nitesh Tiwari, who directed Dangal, one of India's highest-grossing films. It is the first instalment of a two-part retelling of the epic, and features visual effects by DNEG, the Academy Award-winning company behind blockbusters including Dune, Interstellar and Inception. An English-dubbed version is available.

The film tells the story of Rama, a prince bound by sacrifice; Ravana, an immortal king driven by vengeance; and the prophecy that binds their fates. Vue is also screening two other South Asian films during Diwali: Scene, a Tamil action-comedy about an eccentric police officer and his team assigned a new mission, and Disco, a Malayalam action film about an ordinary man entering the underworld. Tickets start from £7.99 when booked online.
