Hrithik Roshan and Zayed khan in Ram-Laxman

Hrithik Roshan and Zayed Khan are to be featured as the mythological characters in Sanjay Khan’s ‘The Legend of Rama’. The movie is going to be co-scripted by Zayed’s father and Hrithik’s father-in-law Sanjay Khan and Briton-based author Faroukh Dhondy. And any guess who will don the King Dashrath’s role? The Bollywood daddy, Amitabh Bachchan!

With the script in its final stages, Faroukh Dhondy feels that both Hrithik and Zayed are perfect for the role of Ram and Laxman respectively. He terms the movie as a modern format of Ramayan. “It's not a modern but a traditional adaptation but with the grammar of a modern films. This means it would be the Ramayan in The Lord of the Rings genre,” he adds.
