Chiyaan Vikram is one of the most talented actors in Tamil cinema. The versatile actor joined hands with director Mani Ratnam for the first time for 'Raavanan', and the film was shot in Tamil and Hindi simultaneously. It was a challenging role for Chiyaan Vikram as he played the negative role in the Tamil version and the hero role in the Hindi version. But did you know, Chiyaan Vikram has performed all stunts for 'Raavanan' on his own? He didn't use a body double for even a single stunt scene in the film. Chiyaan Vikram used only rope for stunt scenes in the film's climax scene, where he jumps down from a mountain.


As the film completes 13 years today (June 18), fans have been celebrating the film on social media. Aishwarya Rai played the female lead, while the actress' chemistry with Chiyaan Vikram worked well.

Chiyaan Vikram was last seen on big screens in the historical drama 'Ponniyin Selvan 2', which was directed by Mani Ratnam. The 'Raavanan' duo Chiyaan Vikram and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shared the screen space once again in the historical drama, but yet again the duo disappointed the fans with their on-screen separation.
