South star Yash will play the role of Ravana and Sunny Deol will play the role of Hanuman. For part of Bibishan Jaideep Ahlawat was offered a role, but he rejected. Recently in interview Jaideep opened up about these and gave reason why he rejected this big film. 

In an interview given to Lallantop, Jaideep Ahlawat said, "I was offered a role in Ramayan. But our dates did not match. Ravana and Bibhishan's scenes together were necessary. I know Ravana's dates were more important than mine. KGF's success is mostly playing Ravana."
