The trailer of Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Ramayana dropped at the crack of dawn on Thursday, July 30, and in the trailer, fans saw a glimpse of Ranbir playing Parashurama as well as Lord Rama.
Their paths crossed with each other after Rama strung Lord Shiva’s bow, Pinaka, during Sita’s swayamvar.
Lord Rama participated in the ceremony, and strung the bow, but after his divine touch, the bow broke into two parts, and this angered Parashurama.
He was a devotee of Lord Shiva and had spent years in the Kailash mountains in his prayer.
Lord Shiva had then blessed him with a divine axe.
