Sargun Mehta Reveals Ravi Dubey Secretly Signed 'Ramayana' Without Her Knowledge Actress Sargun Mehta has shared an intriguing insight into her husband, Ravi Dubey’s, professional life, revealing that he kept his casting as Lakshman in Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming epic film Ramayana entirely private from her. According to Mehta, Dubey adhered to a strict household rule of not discussing individual acting projects until they were officially announced to the public. This rule, she explained, was a mutual agreement between the couple to maintain personal boundaries and avoid unnecessary speculation about their careers. The revelation came as Mehta recounted how Dubey often left for the high-profile shoot of Ramayana with only a vague explanation, such as “going to work,” without disclosing the nature of his involvement. This secrecy, she noted, was not a result of any conflict but rather a conscious choice to protect their privacy. Mehta emphasized that while she was proud of Dubey’s professional achievements, she respected his decision to keep certain aspects of his career private. The Ramayana project, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is a highly anticipated adaptation of the ancient Indian epic, known for its grand scale and cultural significance. Dubey’s casting as Lakshman, the devoted brother of Lord Rama, has sparked considerable interest among fans and critics alike. However, the couple’s approach to handling such high-profile roles has drawn attention to the balance between personal privacy and public scrutiny in the entertainment industry. Mehta’s comments highlight the growing trend of celebrities maintaining a level of discretion in their personal and professional lives, even amid intense media attention.#bollywood #nitesh_tiwari #ramayana #sargun_mehta #ravi_dubey
Ramayana’s Lakshman Ravie Dubey Kept Shoot Secret From Wife Sargun Mehta The teaser for Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming film Ramayana was released on April 2, 2026, marking the project’s first official promotional look. The trailer, titled Rama, premiered at special screenings in Los Angeles and New York, generating significant buzz among fans. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravana, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. Lakshman, played by debutant Ravie Dubey, is set to make his Bollywood debut in the ensemble cast. However, Dubey’s wife, Sargun Mehta, was unaware of his role in the film until the teaser’s release, as he had kept the project a secret from her. Sargun revealed during an interview on Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast that Dubey never discussed the film with her, even as rumors about the project circulated online. “We don’t really talk about work at home,” she explained. “Just like he doesn’t know what I’m doing until my projects are announced, I also don’t find out about his work until it becomes public.” This dynamic meant Sargun had no prior knowledge of Dubey’s involvement in Ramayana, despite the film’s growing anticipation. The revelation came unexpectedly. Sargun said she learned about Dubey’s casting through a third party, who casually mentioned his role. “Someone randomly told me, ‘Congratulations, Ravie is…’ and I said, ‘Sssh. I don’t know what you’re talking about — we’re not allowed to tell each other, so don’t tell me,’” she recalled. She later confirmed the news by reading about it online, but admitted she hesitated to ask Dubey directly. “He didn’t even tell me, so I can’t even ask!” she said, highlighting the couple’s unspoken rule of not discussing work. During the film’s production, Dubey maintained a vague approach to his commitments.#nitesh_tiwari #ranbir_kapoor #ramayana #ravie_dubey #sargun_mehta
Ravie Dubey Kept Lakshman Role Secret from Wife Sargun Mehta in 'Ramayana' Ravie Dubey, who plays the character of Lakshman in the upcoming film Ramayana, revealed that he concealed his casting in the project from his wife, Sargun Mehta, for an extended period. The couple, known for avoiding discussions about work at home, preferred to keep their professional lives separate. Sargun only learned about Ravie’s role through indirect means, as the couple rarely shared details about their respective careers. This revelation was shared during a podcast interview with Ranveer Allahbadia, which took place last year. Sargun Mehta explained that the couple’s approach to work-related conversations was mutually respectful. “We don’t really talk about work at home,” she said. “Just like he doesn’t know what I’m doing until my projects are announced, I also don’t find out about his work until it becomes public.” When someone congratulated her on Ravie’s role, she politely declined, stating she wasn’t supposed to know. During the film’s production, Ravie maintained secrecy about his involvement. Whenever Sargun inquired about his whereabouts, he would simply respond, “Kaam pe ja raha hoon” (I am going for work), without mentioning the nature of the project. Sargun admitted her curiosity eventually overcame her discretion. She once asked the driver about the set’s atmosphere, but the driver mistakenly assumed she was referring to Ranbir Kapoor, who also stars in the film. Ravie laughed when Sargun shared the story, adding, “Woh bhi mere bare mein nahi, Ranbir (Kapoor) ke bare mein” (“That too not about me, but about Ranbir (Kapoor)”). The film, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is set to release in two parts, with the first installment scheduled for Diwali 2026 and the second for Diwali 2027.#nitesh_tiwari #ranbir_kapoor #ravie_dubey #sargun_mehta #ranveer_allahbadia
