The teaser of Ramayana has sparked massive excitement, with Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi leading as Ram and Sita. But beyond the lead pair, a fresh face is quickly gaining attention—Surabhi Das.
She is set to play Urmila, Sita’s sister, and her presence in the film is already generating buzz.
Who Is Surabhi Das?
Surabhi Das is an emerging actress from Guwahati, Assam, known for her work in regional cinema and television. Before stepping into Bollywood, she appeared in projects like the TV show Neema Denzongpa and films such as Dada Tumi Dusto Bor.
With Ramayana, she marks her debut in Hindi cinema—an important milestone in her career.
Her Role in Ramayana
In the film, Surabhi is expected to portray Urmila, the wife of Lakshman and sister of Sita. The character, though often understated in popular retellings, carries emotional depth and significance in the epic narrative.
Her casting signals a renewed focus on supporting characters within the grand storytelling of Ramayana.
Experience Working With the Cast
Surabhi recently shared her experience of working with Ranbir Kapoor, describing him as calm, focused, and deeply immersed in his role. She noted that his personality aligns naturally with the dignity associated with Lord Ram, making his performance even more compelling.
She also praised Sai Pallavi for her supportive nature on set. According to Surabhi, Sai helped her navigate the challenges of heavy costumes and jewellery, offering practical guidance during shoots.
A Big Break in Bollywood
Being part of a large-scale project like Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is a major leap for Surabhi Das. The film is planned as a two-part release, with the first installment expected during Diwali 2026 and the second in Diwali 2027.
