The much awaited film of the year, Raavan, is knocking at the door. Fans around the world have already started counting down the time when it will be released.
Mani Ratnam’s Raavan is a tri-lingual film as it has been simultaneously made in Tamil as Raavanan and at the same time, it would also be dubbed in Telugu as Villain.
Madras Talkies and BIG Cinemas have got the distribution right of the Hindi version. On the other hand, Reliance Big Pictures will distribute the Tamil version. Though it has been made in three different languages, it is slated to be released on June 18, 2010.
There is no big difference between the versions except the casts. In Raavan, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai and Vikram plays the lead roles while Govinda, Ravi Kishan, Nikhil Dwivedi, Tejaswini Kolhapure and Priyamani plays the key supporting roles.
Abhishek Bachchan plays the role of Beera who can be compared with Raavan, the demon King of Lanka. Aishwarya Rai plays the role of Ragini, whose character is as similar as Seeta of Ramayana. Vikram plays the character of police officer Dev, whose character can be compared with Shree Ram.
In Tamil version, Vikram plays the role of Veera. Aishwarya Rai will be seen doing the same character what she does in Hindi version. However, Prithviraj Sukumaran replaces Vikram for the role of police officer Dev.
Academy Award winner, AR Rahman, composed the music and the soundtrack in both versions. Audio of the film was launched on 24 April 2010 by T-Series.
It is the most ambitious project for filmmaker and writer, Mani Ratnam. He has got the credit for the screen play. He asks the question in his directorial note-
Ten heads, Ten minds, A hundred voices- One Man. Did such a man ever exist…? Was he just a myth…or a metaphor…?
Are Ten Heads better than one…?
Perhaps it is going to be the big hit after the success of Guru that stars star couple Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. It will hit 2000 screens worldwide.
