‘Ramayana’ will have different release dates in India and overseas, with the highly anticipated epic arriving in international markets ahead of its domestic release. Producer Namit Malhotra has now explained why viewers overseas are set to watch the mythological epic before those in India. But in India, we are currently targeting the Diwali release,” Malhotra said. Salman Khan’s ‘Tiger 3’ offers a recent example of the unusual box-office dynamics surrounding a Diwali release. The domestic date is therefore two days later than the overseas release, although the final schedule remains subject to confirmation.
