Trivia
- The film was shot simultaneously in Hindi and Tamil with different lead actors, except for Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who starred in both versions.
- The character names Beera and Ragini are inspired by the epic Ramayana, with Beera representing Ravana and Ragini representing Sita.
- Composer A.R. Rahman recorded the song 'Beera' in a single take to capture the raw, emotional energy of the scene.
- The film's climax was shot in the dense forests of Kerala, where the crew faced challenges with heavy monsoon rains and difficult terrain.
- Mani Ratnam chose to shoot many scenes using natural light to create a gritty, realistic look for the forest setting.
- The Hindi version underperformed at the box office, but the Tamil version, titled 'Raavanan', received better critical reception.
- Vikram, who played the police officer in the Tamil version, swapped roles to play the bandit leader in the Hindi version opposite Aishwarya Rai.
