Days after Nitesh Tiwari began Ramayana's shoot, Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi's photos got leaked and went viral on social media. Their look as Lord Ram and Goddess Sita is already out. After the actors' pictures went viral, Nitesh Tiwari took a tough decision. As per a Mid-Day report, the filmmaker has altered Ramayana's schedule. Now, Nitesh will focus only on indoor shots, which will minimise the chances of another leak.

Nitesh Tiwari takes a tough call on the Ramayana set

The media report further suggests the outdoor shoots of Ramayan will happen at night for the next few weeks. Additionally, private security has been hired to safeguard the set from the paparazzi or fans lurking around for photos. When the Nitesh Tiwari directorial went on floors, the director had exercised a no-phone policy on the set.

"That rule is non-negotiable. The unit will shoot continuously till the rains hit as Nitesh sir wants to complete a chunk by June. The makers are planning to shoot an elaborate portion later this week, which could become the announcement sequence. It is expected to be unveiled in June," revealed a source.
