RAVANAN -REVIEW
Hi friends here, let us see the review about one of the very high quality film called RAVANAN. This is a bilingual project, where the director Manirathnam, took a lot of effort to make sure that the film is received well all over the world. This film also mad simultaneously in Hindi as Ravan. The most important part of the film is the cinematography and we must give a stand-in aviation to santosh Shivam, who did a stupendous job to make sure that as if we were watching the movie in real time. It was a very chill and pleasing effect to our eyes. Credit must be given to him. Initially Manikandan was set to be the cameraman, but due to Hindi project, he opted out of the film.
This film has the storyline of Ramaynam and therefore if you expect to watch the movie for story, you can omit that option. But still, this is very high quality film and it is due to the director and his team crew. Adding to this effort is the presence of AR Rahman and the actors Vikram, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek.
Another important aspect of this film is stunt direction .Every part of the stunt in this film is awesome but highlight is the climax fight between dev and ravanan which takes place in the hanging bridge and also the last seen o the film where ravanan alls from the mountain. one thing which adds beauty to the film is the art direction and the selection of the location which shows the entire word that India has a lot o places with scenic beauty . The motto of the manirathram, ie to take films only in India has paid off, because experts critics from usa have applauded the effects taken by manirathnam for this beautiful film.
Thumps up

Each and very location in this film amazed us because of its scenic beauty. The major part of the film is taken in the hills of Maharashtra and Karnataka.
Santosh sivaam have done a great job with his camera bcause every short chilled our eye.
2) Music:
Two time academy winner AR Rahman has once again proved that he is the best music director in India. Every songs in this film were huge hit especially the song “usure poguthe” sung by karthik has won the hearts of million people.
Thumps down:
