Ash to dub in Tamil


Mani Ratnam, one of India's finest filmmakers, is busy wrapping up his most ambitious project Raavan, which is expected to grace theatres on June 18, 2010. Sources close to the unit say that Aishwarya has completed dubbing for Hindi and has begun to dub her Tamil lines for the Tamil version. Her cofidence and diction in Tamil have impressed all crew members. She is also likely to dub for her role in Enthiran.

Raavan, said to be the modern adaptation of the epic Ramayana, revolves around Raavana, the ruler of Lanka, who kidnapped Sita. The story culminates with Sita supporting Raavana instead of Rama, who suspects her chastity after having spent so much time in Raavana’s custody. Vikram plays the villain. Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are the lead pair in Hindi, while Vikram will play the lead opposite Aishwarya in Tamil. Music is by Oscar winner A.R. Rahman.
