Priyamani as 'Surpanagai'..........



Mani Ratnam's ambitious bilingual project having Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Southern super star Vikram in the lead roles is fastly progressing it's shooting. Titled as 'Ravana' in Bollywood will have Abhishek and Aiswarya playing the lead roles, and Vikram will play the role of villian in it. Where as in Tamil, the title of the film is not yet confirmed, and the film will have Vikram and Aiswarya playing the lead roles, and in Tamil, notable actor from Mollywood Prithviraj, will play the role of villian.


This new film from Mani Ratnam, is being made in an inspiration from the epic, Ramayana. In the hindi version, Abhishek plays Rama, and Aiswarya plays the role of Seetha, whereas Vikram plays Ravana in it. In Tamil, Vikram plays Rama, and the role of Ravana will be played by Prithviraj. In hindi, Priyamani plays the role of Surpanagai, younger sister of Ravana.


The National award winning heroine was expected to be tapping foot with Vijay, Suriya or Vikram after 'Paruthi Veeran'. But what made the actress accept this offer to play the sister is one name – Mani Rathnam. It is heard that she doesn't play the usual teary sister who seeks solace from her brother, though she is the sister of Ravana.


It was how Karnan's life was envisaged into 'Dhalapathi' with the Superstar Rajni kant, Ramayana had become this new movie. Since the maker of the film is the great Mani Ratnam himself, it's not a literal remake of the epic and Mani Rathnam might sculpt the National award winning actress Priyamani to deliver apt performance.
