Ramayana rated PG-13 in the US, runs over 3 hours; Ranbir's longest after Animal

The Motion Picture Association cleared the epic with a PG-13 rating; the international cut runs 3 hours 15 minutes.

The Motion Picture Association has passed Ramayana with a PG-13 rating in the United States, citing sequences of strong violence and action and some bloody images. The rating is roughly equivalent to India's U/A classification.

The international version runs 3 hours and 15 minutes, making it Ranbir Kapoor's second film after Animal (2023) to cross the three-hour mark. Trade sources suggest the English-language version may be shorter, around 2 hours 45 minutes, though a clearer picture will emerge closer to release.

The Diwali release is positioned as the biggest-ever global launch for an Indian film, with Sony Pictures handling international distribution. With the Bengaluru trailer event now done, the campaign shifts into high gear over the next three weeks.
