Ranbir Kapoor compares Ancient Vimana to Musk innovation
Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor recently sparked widespread online discussions with a bold statement regarding ancient Indian mythology. During a promotional interview for his upcoming film, the star compared modern technological concepts to classical Hindu epics. He asserted that India invented flying vehicles thousands of years before contemporary innovators. Kapoor plays the lead role of Lord Rama in director Nitesh Tiwari’s highly anticipated cinematic adaptation of the Ramayana. While discussing the epic’s advanced visual effects and legendary narrative elements, conversation shifted toward futuristic technology. The actor referenced tech entrepreneur Elon Musk’s recent development of futuristic flying car prototypes.

Social media users reacted swiftly to the actor’s comments, triggering intense debates across various online platforms. Cultural analysts continue discussing how modern cinema reinterprets ancient technological motifs for contemporary audiences. Meanwhile, advance ticket sales for the epic movie break previous box office records nationwide.
