i am allergic to hindi movies like u did for old movies.Yep you can put it in that way
But in the other hand
contrary what Ramayana says Ravan is an environmentalist, scientist and a well disciplined King
And he kidnapped Sitha not bcz He loved her but to teach Rama a lesson of deprivation and teach how to treat a women with respect
Bcz Rama once cut the nose of a women(I cudnt remem her name) for standing against sacrificies animals/immolation
(Its a long story. Refer that thread if u have free time )
So Ravan kidnapped Sitha as a retaliation. But yet he treat Sitha well for the time being held
So if u watch carefully u can say movie resembles the true history of Ravan
My point is this movie may reveals the true nature of Rama and Ravan which is Ravan righteous than Rama
I rated this movies as 90% coz of the importance of the movie despite the fact thats damn boring

Mani Rathnam is the best director in India now
as it seems.
