What started as a cameo role has been transcended into a full-length characterization. That’s really great news for Govinda, the self-aggrandizing actor, who has pinned more hopes on Mani Rathnam’s ‘Raavan’. Recently, there were buzzes that Govinda’s outlandishness had its impact on the filmmaker.

‘If that is the fact, why would Mani Rathnam offer me another project?’ says Govinda who promises that it’s been a great time working for this film. Adding more about buzzes relating his role with mythological character of Hanuman, the actor utters, “There isn’t anything to do with the role of Hanuman. I am enacting the role of man guiding a person (Vikram) badly running to save his wife (Aishwarya Rai) kidnapped by a notorious outcast (Abhishek Bacchan).”

Followed by mahout’s death, the entire crew has shifted to Ooty, where Govinda will join them on August 18. Also the actor has confirmed that he performs full-fledged prominent role that will be enacted by Kollywood's reigning actor Karthik in Tamil version.
