Mani Ratnam‘s much-anticipated action melodrama Raavan, starring Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Vikram, flopped BIG TIME at the box office despite A-list stars attached to the project including music composer A.R. Rahman. The film, a modern-day take on the Indian epic Ramayana, opened to mixed reviews on June 18th. Abhishek’s father Amitabh Bachchan lashed out and blamed Raavan‘s film editor A. Sreekar Prasad for the film’s demise. Check out Amitabh’s tweet regarding the flick below.
“Lot of merited film edited out, causing inconsistent performance and narrative. Abhishek’s erratic behaviour was due to symbolic 10 heads visually appearing and each giving him different attitudes to adopt for a situation, he would then finally shake them off and decide… It’s sad, in the edit you only see the aftereffect of that thinking process, hence inconsistent. In the edit, all the visual heads got cut and you see a confused Beera expression and wonder why?”
