If a travelogue program covering wonderful places, unexplored beauty of India is mixed with super celebrity cast, a fifteen minute drama, couple of songs sung by pathetically scratched, bruised throat of Ila Arun (I am not sure if I am missing something), then you would arrive at the movie Raavan.
Well, since Avatar, I think all the biggies like Mr. Mani Ratnam, Mr. Speilberg have got more fascinated either by VFX based or God provided beauty in locations or creations rather than a story line.
How would life be if you were a millionaire but do not have a job, no one talks to you, to be very precise there is no challenge in life? Similar would be a movie without a story line. What is the use of having versatile actors like Vikram but not using their acting skills?
Few people told Aishwarya Rai Bachan did very well. Come on folks what did she do??? She looks gorgeous, no doubt. But was she given any scope to act? I do not think so. One more thing, a woman's cleavage is a most beautiful thing in the world, provided the structure is so. Showing it every now and then irritates. Have some respect. Abhishek got a role where he could act and he did okay for his talent.

If you are thinking why am I so negative in writing, I have to give you this rule of Physics. It says ...
So if you have exerted a lot of force but did not move a millimeter that means you did not do any work.
Yes it would have taken a lot of toll for everyone in the cinema house to shoot at those locations. The efforts would have been horrible, especially for delicate personalities like Aishwarya to handle, however no story line and no required efforts make the movie pretty dull.
Mani Ratnam sir, you have utterly disappointed us.
My Rating: 2/5
My Verbal Rating: Watch the movie for locations, nothing else. Those locations do not look good on our small television sets. But wait for a while till the ticket prices reduce. No hurry to watch a documentary right!
