Raavan

Every one was excited about the most talked flick of Mani Ratnam Raavan because the promos arose a kind of sensation among the people.It is well known that Mani's movies are not merely an experience, it's an event. Raavan is a modern-day version of 'Ramayana' whose screenplay was penned by Mani himself. The story movies in that way the cop (Vikram) who has been chasing Beera (Abhishek Bachchan) a tribal has kidnapped his wife (Aishwarya) and the battle starts between good and evil.


Between Ram and Raavan,Mani has also included the part from Ramayana where Goddess Sita has to give Agni Pareeksha same is with Aishwarya when her husband asks her to appear for a polygraph test to prove her chastity/fidelity.Some of the times Raavan is going to remind you the memories of the movie Jungle.If you are expecting some liveliness then you would be really disappointed to know that first half is really dull. Govinda's role is also not effective.

In other words Raavan is a king size disappointment, the factors that really pulls the film down are the madness of Beera he is like a psycho that really makes a mockery of the character itself. The make up has made the entire team look repulsive, the script is weak and as far as the plus points are concerned the main worth is A.R.Rahman's music very melodious and excellent, Santosh Sivan's cinematography creates magic.The dialogues of Vijay Krishna Acharya's hit you.

On the whole Raavan has got red as it is not for enough to reach up the expectations of people.
