Ram Gopal Verma shows the way and Mani Ratnam follows the pattern/Raavan/Phoonk2/RAKTA CHARITRA






His films may not be succeeding in the same proportion these days as they used to be earlier, but credit has to be given to Ram Gopal Verma for introducing new elements in art of film making thereby reducing the cost and expanding the reach of the movies. When he made PHOONK he made it in Hindi as also in Telugu simultaneously, so same location was sued and with same resources two films were made at nearly the cost of one. He did the same with PHOONK-2 as well. Ram Gopal Verma has gone one step further and has shot RAKTA CHARITRA in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

Probably taking a leaf out of the experiment of Ram Gopal Verma, Mani Ratnam has also decided to make RAAVAN simultaneously in Hindi as well as in Tamil. Mani Ratnam is one director who used to make the movies in Tamil and then remake them in Hindi, but with RAAVAN he must have come to realize the fact that now with the actors working in nearly all the different languages in which films are made in India, it makes much sense to shoot the film simultaneously for different languages. So, RAAVAN would be releasing in Hindi as also in Tamil at the same time.
