Throwing a chewing gum was never so cool. I was amazed to note that he has quit on screen smoking, but only to replace it with chewing gum. Rajikant the superhero-Nothing less is expected from him & he fulfills is all aspects, dialogues, style, drama, action, emotion. I wish she enchanted us in Hindi films too. She is fairer too, but everything is fair in love & Rajni movies. The current pair looked a little skewed age wise, but that’s absorbed. I wish Rajni were a bit younger to court her. She fits in traditional Indian, western attire with ease. Her expressions & smiles can melt polar ice caps. Her looks impeccable, her belly button divine. What a figure(Size “A” as disclosed in the movie). Then there was “ gimme a break” & “that was a coincidence” which gave me vital clues on the plot.Īlso there was a seeti maar dialogue about Adi Seshan & Alseshan(Alsatian, the dog) which was quite funny as everyone was laughing, so I laughed loudly too). Currency notes flies in the air, Adi Seshan dies.ĭialougesI understood 10% dialogues like “cool” which is time & again uttered by Rajni. Will he be alive again? Will he be able to fulfill his dream? What happens to Tamil? Will truth win over evil? Will the movie end happily?ĭead Sivaji is recovered by his friends & well wishers, revived to life secretly & returns as a Vinod Kambli- like bald look as MGR & kick ash of Adi Seshan. After many more songs & encounter with the corrupt officials he completes his Project, gets arrested, loses his love, dies. He converts the back money to white US$ through hawala & entraps Adi. He sources Tamilnadu's RS 200 billion(13 zeros, precisely) black money hidden inside unsuspected places like rice bags, well water, gobar etc. *Sivaji’s coin toss compels him to adopt the age old strategy: “Loha lohe ko katka hai”. He tosses the coin just before the interval to decide whether he should fight back or retreat. He even he loses his Suitcases, Mercedes S class to pay advance to his lawyers. Sivaji falls in the trap, loses all his property & literally comes to the road. Meantime, Adi buys the officials out & an evil conspiracy is planned. 3 songs & many more romantic family level encounters later she agrees happily.
But Sivaji doesn’t believe in superstitions & becomes adamant to marry her.
Also, the black mouthed astrologer(who has black spots in his tongue) foresees disaster if she married Sivaji. Sivaji finds her love in life in a girl named Tamil( I got that right!), discovered in a temple. The humble girl works in a music instrument shop, who's fairer & poorer than Sivaji. Kicked, he distributed “bags” to the officials & approvals are cleared in no time. His get his first kick in his G, trying to seek statutory approvals for his projects in the orthodox way. But Sivaji, being a victim of honestly & handwork chooses the tougher path to go alone. Adi Seshan proposes more exciting options like Mall & Multiplex, 5 star Hotels & other hot destinations. Sivaji had some boring plans to build useless Real Estate like Universities, charity Hospitals etc etc which is not liked by the sweet & puffy villainAdiSeshan(Suman). He has a sidekick cum assistant played by Vivek, who I found to be very handsome & funny.
Sivaji (Rajnikant, our hero) is an US returned scholar who possess multiple degrees & holds credit cards, debit cards, passport, international driver’s license & a green card. This review is my humble effort to demonstrate that-Ī) One doesn’t necessarily need to understand the spoken language to appreciate a film.ī) Sivaji is a complete family entertainer, especially for grown up kids Ĭ) Tossing a Re 1 coin helps( I did it before writing this review)īefore Interval(I hope to get right here) Cinema as Art, is a language in itself. Language of color, music, body(especially that of the heroine) & action that attracted me to Sivaji. *Art is beyond the mere barriers of language, milieu & creed.
