According to latest reports, director Mani Ratnam is recovering fast from his recent heart attack and the shooting for *Ravan* is most likely to start next week in Silent Valley, Kerala. However, it is still unclear on how many hours Mani will shoot every day. The shoot will be in the jungles of Kerala (where the film’s shoot had begun). The doctors have advised Mani Ratnam to take rest and Suhasini Mani Ratnam is coordinating with a lot of work behind the scenes. *Ravan* stars Aishwarya Rai, Abishek Bachchan, Vikram and Govinda. Meanwhile, A.R. Rahman and the ace director have already started discussions about another film which will go on floors soon! Titled *Rukmani,* it is said to be a village love story. The director intends to shoot in more than one language and is expected to widen his cast by selecting actors and actresses from Tollywood and Mollywood too. *Ravan, *in the meantime, may be released during Diwali this year. http://telugu.galatta.com/entertainment/telugu/livewire/id/Mani_Ratnam_on_his_next_flick_24808.html -- regards, Vithur
