In 1983, while working on The Ramayana Relics a documtary film about excavations by Dr. B. B. Lal near Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh (India) Yugo Sako came to know about the story of Ramayana. He liked the story of the Ramayana so much that he researched deeper into the topic and wt on to read 10 versions of the Ramayana in Japanese. After reading the Ramayana he wanted to adapt it into animation as he didn't think a live-action movie could capture the true essce of Ramayana, Because Ram is God, I felt it was best to depict him in animation, rather than by an actor.
And the principal animation of the film began in 1990 with 450 artists on board. Indian animators guided their Japanese teammates with Indian customs and traditions depicted in the film like how dhotis are worn and how the childr receive blessings from their elders.

The Indian Express published an article about Yugo Sako's The Ramayana Relics documtary on 25 April 1983. Soon thereafter, a protest letter based on the misunderstanding from the Vishva Hindu Parishad was received by the Japanese Embassy in Delhi, which said that no foreigners could arbitrarily cinematize Ramayana because it was the great national heritage of India.
After the misconceptions were cleared, Yugo Sako proposed the idea of an animated Ramayana to the VHP and the governmt. He told them that animation was a serious art form in Japan and it would help bring the Ramayana to a wider global audice. The Governmt agreed initially, but later declined his proposal for a bi-nation collaboration, saying the Ramayana is a very ssitive subject and cannot be portrayed as a cartoon. Also, the fact that the movie was being made at the height of the Ayodhya dispute, added to the controversy and axed the prospects of producing it in India. With no choice and support left, the movie was ultimately produced in Japan with nearly 450 artists from both nations contributing to its creation.
The original glish version with Sanskrit songs was worked on by teams from both countries and was screed for the first time at 24th International Film Festival of India, New Delhi, 10–20 January 1993.
