Colors is set to premiere Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer Raavan on 1 August in India, US and UK.

The movie will be aired at 8 pm on Sunday in India and UK, while US viewers can watch the movie at 3 pm on Aapka Colors (Colors’ US version).

Mani Ratnam’s Raavan was released on 18 June, but despite breathtaking cinematography, ace music and performances, it failed to do magic at the box office.

Speaking about the world television premiere, Viacom18 chief commercial officer and head - international business Gaurav Gandhi said, “With a fascinating line-up of the big blockbusters to be showcased over the next 6-8 months on the channel, we are confident that our viewers would be entertained and delighted.”

Prior to Raavan, Colors has premiered movies like Kites, Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani, and Blue shortly after their theatrical release.

Raavan revolves around Beera (Abhishek Bachchan), who is a local Robin Hood for the tribals; nevertheless he is a law breaker. He kidnaps Ragini (Aishwarya) who is a cop’s (Dev, played by Southern star Vikram) wife, in order to avenge a personal grouse.
