This Maniratnam movie leaves you a tad disappointed with the story, but the technical areas are amazingly dealt with. One would surely be mesmerized with the visuals, lyrics and music score.
Vikram delivers a smashing performance as Veera - the leading protagonist in the Tamil version, and lives to the role of Dev in Hindi. As Beera in Hindi, Abhishek is a misfit, given his body language which does not match with the raw appeal that the character demands. Prithviraj as Dev in tamil is just ok and lacks the fierce expression that is needed. Aishwarya delivers the expected as Ragini and this surely is the best role in her career so far. Priyamani impresses with the short role she has in the movie. Other characters have been aptly chosen in both the versions of the movie.
Cinematography and background score are the things that make you sit through the movie. The techincal values of Indian cinema attain new heights with this much awaited movie - Raavan(Hindi)/Raavanan(Tamil)/Villain(Telugu).
