#Sivaji hits movie#

If illiterate villagers in India can sometimes watch an English language movie and like it В– why not a Tamil language movie? Sad thing is that it requires North Indians to go out and see this movie only after overseas / international success of this movie. Thanks to the media hype and the overseas collection of this movie. It is so strange to hear that Sivaji that is a south Indian Tamil movie is doing good business in North Indian Territory. Vivek as a comedian gives ample support to Rajni's whimsical feats. This is my first movie viewing of heroine Shreya, and she looks beautiful and acts well. Rajni has acted with his usual style and zip. A.R.Rahman's musical score is a big let down the background score is a bit better and tempo driven. As the major box office collections are ringing and filling the distributors' accounts В– everyone is having the last laugh and happy times. I was expecting a bit more intelligent movie from Director Shankar, but I was let down. It is a typical commercial Indian masala format В– with gaudy dresses, sets, huge dance troops, anti-gravity defining stunts, hero bashing 15-20 goons, gross comedy В– and the list goes on and on and onВ…It is all in all a Rajni movie! Director Shankar has not left any stone un-turn in including every gimmick that will bring claps and cheers to the Rajni clan of front benchers. The movie is over-the-top and only Rajni fans would like the movie. Parallel to this there is a love story of Sivaji with Tamilselvi (Shreya) and comedy track with of Sivaji with his friend Arivu (Vivek). Then he comes out and seeks revenge in more unlawful ways to achieve his dream. His good work is blocked by red-tape, bureaucracy and corruption at every level В– even after giving bribes he does not succeed and ends up in jail. The story is about a NRI computer engineer Sivaji (Rajnikant) who comes to India to do charitable work (story of Swades!?). This was the first engagement of Shankar with Rajnikant and it has to be BIG and good! That is what I expect. He is a typical aging superstar of India В– dancing and fighting! Director Shankar has carved a niche for himself of tackling the subject of corruption with big star-cast, big movies and in a commercial format. It is just Rajnikant's antics that people come to watch. In UK too it raked above В– Pirates of the Caribbean 3, Oceans' 13 etc. Within its first 2 weeks it has already done business of more than USD 25 million in India. This movie Sivaji is the costliest movie of India USD 21 million В– 5 to 10 time higher budget than usual movies.

His movies are awaited eagerly and released with festivities and gala fair. He has more than 50,000 fan clubs and he is worshipped as God in his Tamil - land. Rajnikant is a superstar of South Indian Tamil cinema.
