Mumbai, April 19 (IANS) Actor Arshad Warsi feels Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif would be ideal to play Lord Ram and his wife Sita in a film on epic "Ramayana".
"I feel right now there is no other better actor than Ranbir Kapoor. He is brilliant and I think he will play Lord Ram's role better," the 45-year-old said here Thursday at the screening of 3D animation film "The Croods".
Among actresses, he feels "somewhere down the line, Katrina fits and Deepika (Padukone) is too exciting".
The actor feels that India has a rich mythology and added: "We have mythology in abundance and if it is made in the right way, then a good mythological film can be made."
With proper use of computer graphics, "Ramayana" could be made into an interesting mythological film.
"If you make 'Ramayana' with computer graphics, it will come out to be good," said Arshad who was last seen in "Jolly LLB", a comic satire on the Indian judicial system.
