The makers may work tirelessly to ensure that details relating to Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana remain a guarded secret, but, every now and then, eager fans are privy to a newly leaked piece of information that piques their curiosity. Now, mid-day has learned that director Nitesh Tiwari has taken over Filmcity to create 12 opulent sets to shoot the mythological tale that sees Kapoor play the role of Lord Ram.

Sets representing Mithila, where Ram and Sita's wedding took place, and Ayodhya, are also being constructed."
