It seems Bollywood is turning to Indian epics to draw inspiration for the films. Mani Ratnams’ “Raavan” is touted to be a modern take on the Ramayana. The film has been in news for its unconventional storyline, glittering star cast and a mega budget. Being a modern adaptation of the Ramayana, the director has meticulously chosen the characters for the film. Abhishek Bachchan, who plays Beera is likely to be a clone of Raavan, the demon king. Aishwarya Rai’s role in this action thriller is that of Ragini, which is in line with the character of Sita.

Mani Ratnam claims that unlike the epic, his film will have a new twist where the kidnapped lady ultimately develops a soft corner for her abductor. The film has been shot in some unconventional locales including the forests of Kerala and the Malshej Ghats of Maharashtra. V. Manikandan, a leading cinematographer shares the credit with Santhosh Sivan for having captured some rare terrains artistically on camera.

“Raavan’, which is also said to reprise the memories of the notorious poacher Veerappan, is replete with action sequences. Abhishek Bachchan has been the talk of the tinsel town for his series of stunts in the film. Be it watching Abhishek diving from a high mountain or Aishwarya hanging in a boat in a river in Kerala the excitement quotient in the film is expected to be high. All eyes will be on the Bachchan couple who will share the screen once again after they proved to be a winning combination in “Guru”.

Top-notch artists from the Bollywood fraternity have come together for “Raavan”. The director has roped in lyricist Gulzar along with Oscar & Grammy award winner music director A.R Rahman to etch out some exclusive compositions. Having a line of talented actors including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Tamil super star Vikram, audience is likely to see some intense performances in the film. “Raavan” is being made in Tamil as “Raavanan” with a different cast. It is also slated to be dubbed into Telugu and other regional languages.

Reliance Big Pictures and Madras Talkies have made a whopping investment of Rs.45 crore for the film, which will hit the theaters on June 18.

Raavan is releasing on 18th June

Cheers !!!
