The date is out! And finally Mani Ratnam’s ‘Raavan’ will hit the screens on the 18th of June.

Reliable sources say that ‘Raavan’ will be released on 18th June worldwide. Currently the post-production of the movie is going on in Chennai. Mani intends to premiere the movie at Cannes Film Festival, this May and hence is speeding things up, so that he would have enough time to promote his multi-starrer multi-lingual movie.

The movie will be released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. It is also heard that Chiyaan Vikram will dub for himself in the Telugu version but details about his voice in Hindi is yet to be revealed.

Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya and Vikram will remain in all the three versions. A shuffle is expected in their characters but the cast is different in the languages.

Let’s hope to see the Ramayana’s modern adaptation that too Mani style!
