Ramayana isn’t just launching a trailer, it’s launching a global moment.
Ramayana trailer at San Diego Comic-Con debut on July 23. Here’s what’s planned, who’s attending, and why it’s a first for Indian cinema.
The film’s team has confirmed its highly anticipated trailer will debut at San Diego Comic-Con on July 23, 2026, marking a genuinely rare move for an Indian mythological epic.
Ramayana Trailer At San Diego Comic-Con: Who’s Showing Up
Producer Namit Malhotra, director Nitesh Tiwari, and lead actors Ranbir Kapoor and Yash are all set to attend the convention in person to present the film.
Sai Pallavi, who plays Sita, won’t be part of the panel, though the event is still expected to deliver exclusive footage, live performances, and giveaways for attendees.
The Scale Of The Venue Says A Lot
The presentation has secured Ballroom 20, Comic-Con’s second-largest venue, with a capacity of nearly 4,800 seats.

That’s not a small showcase room, it’s a statement.
Booking a venue that size signals the production genuinely intends to position Ramayana as a global cinematic event, not just a big domestic release with international ambitions tacked on.
Why This Timing Matters
This Comic-Con reveal comes right on the heels of the film’s trailer clearing the CBFC with a U certificate, at a substantial 4 minutes and 15 seconds.
Stacking a CBFC clearance with a Comic-Con debut in the same week is a deliberate one-two: lock in the domestic certification, then take the actual unveiling to one of the biggest pop culture stages in the world.
What This Means For Indian Cinema
Indian films rarely get this kind of platform at Comic-Con, which is traditionally dominated by Hollywood franchises, anime and gaming reveals.
A mythological epic of this scale choosing to launch globally at SDCC, rather than sticking purely to domestic promotional events, is a genuine first-of-its-kind move, and it fits the ambition the makers have been building around this project from the start.
Between the IMAX format, the Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman score, and now a Comic-Con debut, Ramayana is clearly being built to travel far beyond a typical Diwali release.
July 23 just became one of the most important dates on the calendar for anyone following this film closely.
