Ace director Mani Ratnam is all set to make a film based on the epic Ramayana.
His modern interpretation of the epic will revolve around the character Ravan.
The Hindi-Tamil bilingual, titled Ravan will star Mani Ratnam's favourite pair, Abhishek Bachchan and his wife Aishwarya, as Rama and Sita, while Govinda is likely to play the role of Hanuman. Aditya Panscholi will star in the title role.
Mani, who is busy with his current project with the same lead pair, is likely to commence Ravan by next year.
