A Correct answer
Explanation

The Ramayana was originally composed in Sanskrit, which was the literary language of ancient India. While there are excellent adaptations in Hindi (like Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas), Tamil (Kamban's Ramavataram), and other regional languages, Valmiki's original was in Sanskrit. Devanagari is a script, not a language, and Urdu developed much later.
