Trivia

1. All the cast performed their stunts in the film.
2. Most of the shoot was done on actual locations, in deep forests. After the last drivable point, all the crew members had to go on foot for about one km. Even the crew equipment had to be taken on hand carts.
3. Shah Rukh Khan and Manisha Koirala were Mani Ratnam's first choices for the roles of Beera and Ragini.
4. The film's basic plot is inspired by the Ramayana (Raavan kidnaps Ram's wife Sita) as well as the life of revolutionary leader Kobad Ghandy.
5. Vikram plays Dev in this film and plays Beera in the Tamil version Raavanan (2010).
6. Abhishek Bachchan was originally going to play Dev in Raavanan (2010), to form a perfect foil between the two films. However, he turned it down as he was not very fluent in the Tamil language.
7. The opening lines of the song "Ranjha Ranjha" are adapted from Sufi poet Baba Bulleh Shah's "Ranjha Ranjha Kardi".
8. Manikandan was originally hired as the film's cinematographer. However, he was replaced with Santosh Sivan.
9. The film was shot on location in the forests of Tumkur (Karnataka), Ooty, Jhansi, Calcutta, Mahabaleshwar, and in the Malshej Ghats (Maharashtra).
10. The Tamil version of Raavanan (2010) was shot simultaneously with this Hindi version. Interestingly, the characters played by Abhishek and Vikram are interchanged in both the versions, as Abhishek is a superstar of Hindi films and Vikram is of the Tamil ones.
11. Although pre-release publicity claimed that Abhishek Bachchan performed the cliff-jump himself despite Mani Ratnam objecting to it, Bangalore-based diver M S Balram revealed that he performed the stunt in 2008 at the Hoggennekal falls. Balram is also credited as Abhishek's body double in the end credits and shares a physical similarity with the actor.
12. Ragini's clothes were designed by Indian fashion designer Sabyasachi Mukherji.
13. The song "Jaare Ud Jaare" was a last-minute composition A.R. Rahman made after watching the film. It does not have a place in the film, but its theme can be heard at the film's climax.
14. Sadashiv Amrapurkar and Tejaswini Kholapure shot for 90 days in the jungle. Sadashiv was in very poor health but remained professional. But during the editing of the film, Mani Ratnam completely removed Sadashiv's role from the film. Tejaswini was just visible in one shot in a song.
