After wreaking havoc at the box office in Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, Dulquer Salmaan-Mrunal Thakur starrer Sita Ramam is set to make its way to the hearts of Hindi-speaking audiences.
The epic love saga will release in Hindi on September 2.
Jayantilal Gada's Pen Studio has taken up the onus of releasing the Hindi version of the period romance drama.
Dive in for details.
Context
Why does this story matter?
Sita Ramam has joined the league of successful 2022 South Indian films, a list adorned by RRR, KGF: Chapter 2, and Karthikeya 2.
Not only will the Hindi screenings take the content to a larger audience, but they will also contribute to the overall revenue.
Since Dulquer Salmaan and Mrunal Thakur are already popular in the north, pulling crowds shouldn't be too tough.

Box Office
'Sita Ramam' pulled crowds despite theatrical clashes
The Hanu Raghavapudi directorial has reportedly crossed the Rs. 65cr mark (worldwide box office).
It only took three days for the multilingual period drama to rake in Rs. 25cr (worldwide).
The collections are particularly impressive considering it clashed with Telugu film Bimbisara and Brad Pitt's Bullet Train.
All the films were released on August 5 and, despite the face-off, have managed to woo cine-goers.
