Reportedly, ace director Mani Ratnam has approached actor Silambarasan to dub for Abhishek Bachchan in Raavan, the filmmaker’s magnum opus. Raavan, said to be the modern adaptation of the epic Ramayana, revolves around Ravana, the ruler of Lanka, who kidnapped Sita. The story culminates with Sita taking the side of Raavana instead of Rama, who suspects her chastity after having spent so much time in Ravana’s custody. Vikram plays the villain. Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are the lead pair in Hindi, while Vikram will play the lead opposite Aishwarya in Tamil. Music is by Oscar winning A.R. Rahman. Raavan is produced by Mani Ratnam's sister Sharda under Ratnam's banner Madras Talkies. But the reason for this decision is yet to be clarified. Is it for the political turmoil in which the Bachchan's are caught or is it something else?
