Although details of the children’s experience have been kept private, the occasion makes for a heartwarming moment. For Yash, who portrays Ravana in the ambitious cinematic adaptation, the film marks an important chapter in his career. He is also associated with the project as a co-producer. For Ayra and Yatharv, however, Ramayana will always hold a special place as the first film they watched on the big screen.
Yash and Radhika have previously spoken about the thought behind their children’s names. Ayra’s name is inspired by Airavathi, another name associated with Goddess Lakshmi, while Yatharv means ‘complete’. The couple also revealed that their son’s name brings together elements of the names Yash, Radhika, and Ayra.
With Ramayana marking their first cinema experience, Ayra and Yatharv now have a particularly special memory attached to the film. While audiences will witness Yash’s portrayal of Ravana on the big screen, his children will remember it as the movie that introduced them to the theatrical experience.
For Yash and Radhika, watching their children enjoy their first film in a theatre, especially one featuring their father, is likely to have made the occasion even more meaningful.
