Raavan vs. Raavanan

Just to start of i'm not trying to spark any HINDI VS TAMIL pride battle on here, i'd just like to know based on the cast of each film and songs and mani ratnam's past projects which version of the story he wrote will come out better. Mani Ratnam has proved to make spectacular movies in both hindi and tamil, so what's everybodys thoughts on the new one? Neither of the movies are being RE-MADE from the other but instead made at the same time.

When Yuva and Ayutha Ezhuthu came out i personally thought Ayutha was better. It had a really good tone and the songs and cast i felt were a tad bit stronger than Yuva. I've been listening to both the soundtracks for Raavan and Raavanan, and i cant seem to make up my mind. So far i think Khile Re is better than its tamil counterpart, but at the same time i thought Usurey Poguthey sounded better than 'Behene De'.

Anyway, what does everybody else think?

Abishek was suppoesed to be in the tamil one as well, to be Aish's husband, so t he leads in each movie would switch roles for the other language version. But they gave the role to prithviraj instead because abhishek felt he couldnt master the tamil dialouge.

in the tamil version is vikram, playing abhi's role?

i do not understand the language but i once saw a neha bamb and siddhant , from rang de basanti's one film.. but with subtitle :)

thank you

Husband and Wife = Vikram and Aishwarya

Raavan Character = Abishek

Husband and Wife = Prithviraj and Aishwarya

Raavanan Character = Vikram

Abi was suppoesed to do Prithvi's part in tamil as i said above earlier.
