OK OK!! We are not talking about the Hindi version but the Tamil remake. Abhishek is not doing Mani Ratnam’s Raavanan in Tamil while Ash is still in the project.
Aishwarya well versed in Tamil, having done films like Iruvar and Jeans before. While Abhishek doesnot know a word in Tamil and according to him, he won’t do a film in a language he does not understand.
Southern actor Prithviraj now plays Dev’s character in Raavanan.
Though Mani Ratnam wanted Abhishek to do the Tamil version too, Abhishek managed to convince him. So as of now Aishwarya still a part of the project, but Abhishek is no more!
