Artisans in Assam are creating a unique set of armour to be used in Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming Ramayana film.
Assam’s traditional craftsmen are working on a distinctive armour set for the upcoming Ramayana epic directed by Nitesh Tiwari. The project, which began earlier this month, involves hand‑crafted metalwork and intricate designs that reflect ancient Indian warrior attire.
The artisans, based in the state’s eastern districts, are employing age‑old techniques to produce the armour, ensuring that it meets the visual and functional demands of the film’s action sequences. Each piece is being inspected for durability and authenticity before being handed over to the production team.
Industry insiders say the collaboration highlights the growing interest in regional craftsmanship for Bollywood productions. The finished armour is expected to appear in several key scenes, adding a layer of cultural authenticity to the epic’s portrayal of ancient warfare.
