May be, this was designed to appeal to Gen-next Southerners, many of whom are well placed software engineers in India and abroad.
#Rajini hits 80s full
In what is a departure from full Tamil dialogues, Rajnikanth is a suave and cool computer wizard with some English dialogues. Style and opulence are there for all to see.
#Rajini hits 80s movie
But, really, how does language matter when most of the movie can be understood by situation. I should have ideally seen a Telugu version. Coming to the substantive part of the movie, the story, script and dialogues, my review may not be on the dot since I didn’t really get all of the Tamil dialogues. Although AR Rahman was not up to his usual mark, the sets compensated for it. Nayantara too did a great jig in the first song.
Shriya has done a fabulous job of looking great as both, an item girl in the songs and as a homely girl in the story. The outdoor shots are equally creative with a colorful group song, El Mariachi style sets for one and European locales for another. With numerous costumes and hairdo changed nearly for every couple of lines. The opulent sets, especially for the song vaaji vaaji are beyond proportion. For worshipper fans, Rajnikanth gives them an overdose of style. In his path, the reformist finds many obstacles which, needless to say are handled with unprecedented ease and in a populist approach with lots of cool and crazy style thrown in. Incidentally, his name in the movie is same as his original Maharashtran name and also the name of the legendary king. In his latest flick Rajnikanth plays the title role Sivaji, a US returned wealthy software engineer turned social reformer. The dizzy numbers easily outweigh any of the stars of Bollywood and compares with Jackie Chan, the highest paid actor in Asia who is an exponent in the genre of stunt based action and style. With an enormous budget, which according to varied reports ranges between INR60Cr to INR80Cr, Sivaji is the most expensive Indian film to date with nearly INR35Cr and overseas rights going to the highest paid lead star Rajnikanth. With more than 700 shows on a single day running now, it just can’t get any bigger. How many stars or superstars in India have the status of being treated like a God, being cheered at every punch-line or cool gesture, being in a position where a mere nod has the potential to change political fortunes? From his humble beginnings as a bus conductor in Bangalore, Shivaji Rao Gaekwad, aka Superstar Rajnikanth is simply larger than life and this time it has just gone bigger with Sivaji, his one hundredth Tamil flick.
