Quint Ke Ramleela Auditions: Finding Jatayu

There have been theories that Jatayau might have been a pterodactyl or a reptile transitioning into a bird. Nevermind! Let's not start a culture war. He gave Raavan quite a nasty mid-air fight. But our Jatayus are all learning to fly. And, erm, to remember their lines.

This Dussehra, The Quint decided to put together its own ensemble Ramleela cast. And as every good production does, we held auditions before casting for the roles of Raavan, Sita, Hanuman, Jatayu and the Vaanar Sena (The Monkey Army). The tapes are for your eyes only.
