MrBeast Steals Ranbir Kapoor’s Ramayana Event! Yash’s Absence Suddenly Becomes the Least Talked-About Thing

The makers of Ramayana clearly knew how to turn a film event into a global talking point. What was expected to be a star-studded Mumbai spectacle featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi quickly became something much bigger when the world’s biggest YouTube sensation, MrBeast, walked onto the red carpet. Within minutes, the internet had a new obsession.



1. MrBeast walks in, and the spotlight shifts instantly: The makers pulled off a seriously smart promotional move by bringing MrBeast to the event. The moment he appeared, cameras went into overdrive and clips of his arrival began spreading across social media. With a massive global following running into hundreds of millions across platforms, his presence gave Ramayana an instant international talking point.



2. Then came the “Jai Shri Ram” moment: MrBeast reportedly wondered why people around him were repeatedly chanting “Jai Shri Ram.” Ranbir Kapoor explained the significance to him and, following Ranbir’s hint, MrBeast joined in and chanted “Jai Shri Ram.” Unsurprisingly, that moment quickly became one of the most widely discussed clips from the event.



3. But where was Yash? While MrBeast dominated the headlines, another major talking point was the conspicuous absence of Yash, who plays Ravana. Many fans expected the superstar to attend, but he was nowhere to be seen. His absence triggered questions and speculation online, although the MrBeast frenzy quickly pushed the discussion into the background.



4. Ramayana goes for global scale: Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is being mounted as one of Indian cinema’s most ambitious projects. With a Diwali 2026 release planned, the makers appear determined to sell the film not merely as another Indian epic, but as a global cinematic event. And judging by today’s frenzy, they may have just found one of their biggest international promotional trump cards.
