Do not go by what others say, watch Raavan: Vikram

Wednesday, June 23, 2010
Kochi (PTI): Tamil actor Vikram, who portrayed contrasting characters in two versions of ace director Mani Ratnam's latest flick Raavan feels the movie should not be judged by what others say.

"People have their own opinion. Some might say it is good, some might say it is bad. But please do not judge the movie by what others say, Please go and watch the movie," Vikram, who acted as Dev and Veera in the Hindi and Tamil versions said.

The actor who made his debut in Bollywood with the film was reacting to queries from reporters here when asked about Amitabh Bachchan's tweet that editing glitches having ruined his son Abhishek's role in the Hindi version.

Malayalam actor Prithviraj, who acts as Dev opposite Aiswaraya Rai in the Tamil version, said he did not subscribe to Bachchan's views, but respects it as his personal view.

The two actors were here to promote the film. Vikram said the film, which has been shot in dense forests and tough locales is 'poetry' and should be seen as interpretation of a master craftsman.

Vikram was delighted to share that the Tamil version of the film was doing well. The Hindi audiences could not have connected to its theme, he said when asked about the Hindi version not faring too well.

Prithiviraj said he was introduced as a Malayalam actor at the London premiere of the movie and that he was proud to have represented the Malayalam film industry on such a platform.

The Hindi and Tamil versions have been released in 65 theatres on June 18 despite distributors and producers directive against it as it would affect the collections of Malayalam films. The Film Distributors association had wanted the film to be released after two weeks.
