I completely agree. Plus, Mani and Rahman hail from the Tamil film industry.....Also, Vikram is a MUCH better actor that Abhishek (not saying that Abhi is bad but Vikram is probably one of the top 5 in the country)...this clearly reeks of one version being favored over the other....also i find it offensive that the Hindi version is the only one being prepped to screen at Cannes.....but it could be the decision of the producers (Reliance).....
