Sivaji aka MGR

For the 1.5 months exaggerations, for the multiple story lines revolving around from the day movie was launched, for the interviews each key person of the movie gave, for all the pre\post reviews in news papers, blogs and all media, for the dashing trailer, for the premier show chats, for the feedback from the known persons who saw the movie, for the question why a bald person is wearing the cooling glass in reverse fashion before entering the theatre, I got the answer finally for all these for’s. The movie Sivaji can be classified as one of the commercial super hits of all-time superstar Rajini, the youth at 50’s.

Rajini strengths are his style, comedy, action and his looks which are being utilized completely. Shankar’s strength in this movie is Rajini and he has played around him. The whole movie can be watched for Rajini, Rajini and Rajini. Yes he has banged the industry that he is the 100% entertainer and evergreen super star. You can admire him from all aspects in the film. You expect to watch him in his action then he fulfills your expectations more than you want. Thegata thegata Rajiniya kamichirukanga and pathu rasikalam. Every frame pixel by pixel he is occupied. I don’t recollect a single scene where his presence is not shown. After a 2 years gap from a movie and 8 year gap from a Rajini type movie this is it. You will enjoy “The Boss” from every angle you watch. At his age he has given more than 100 percent effort which is visible. His performance in order if you arrange in this movie it will be looks, comedy, style, dance, action. Enormous effort can be seen in his dancing, fight sequences pushing back his age factor. The don roars in the second half and you can see 80’s Rajini in the first half. The second half is routine Rajini stuff and I thoroughly enjoyed the first half. Every scene was as pleasure to watch and this man just kalakals. When he walks in songs, dances or in the actions you can observe his aging factor. Mottai Rajini simply takes over you. Eppadi antha vettayan Raja manusula ninaro intha mottai Rajiniyum appdiye ninutaru. In fact many scenes were surprising to me from this super man, antha comedy dialogues imitations, disguising himself into Shivaji, MGR & Kamal…Wow! He rocks. Kandipaga Rajinikaga pakka vendiya padam.

Shankar has done well in coordinating and articulating the play with a team. But sir ethayo neenga tholachitteenga athu kathaya, illa unga logic senseya, illa unga originalitya, illa saraku theenthu pocha…something or everything is lost. Antha Gentlemen, Indian, Mudhalvan Shankara thedi thedi pakuren padathula kanum. When you have such a powerful person casting for your story you should have given a powerful story. Seri Rajini movies always revolve around a small group of persons and theme. Avara poi veena National, international ranguku ellam panna vechu konjam sothapal paniteenga. You have taken utmost care for small things in each frame and tried to improvise it. But main matterana storyum athu ketha screenplayum konjam sarikirukeenga. Rajini superstar thaan but athukaga superman panra fantasy ellam avaru mela thinicha avarudo strengths weeknessa marida abayam iruku. But really appreciate your whole effort in piling up and taking care of the direction. But as a whole you haven’t exploited completely neither Rajini strength or the story. How a software architect can earn 200 crores and how after 20 years of service he is unmarried? Bramandam kamikaruthu unga style aana Rajini mattikitta athe image lock madhiri neengalum matikatheenga, muyuchikoonga. Ellathyum bramandam kamika pona thegatidum. Unga Asst. directors ellam kalakranga, so watch out Shankar.

AR you showed again what you are. The background score as well as music will be the next talk of the town after Rajini till this movie celebrates silver jubilee. But antha music instrument store fight scenela konjam adaki vasichirukalam konjam kathulernthu ratham vanthuduchu. Overall AR has scored distinction in the movie.

Money Laundry, CPR, Voice recognition system and for few dialogues Sujatha sneaks in. But fulla ethyume explore panama ethu 100 pera konna pathee vaithiyan madhiri irunthathu. Shreya the beauty doll walks, talks, dances, and does minor acting. She was a breeze as a heroine. The art direction thotta tharani and camera work by KV Anand in this movie will be their certificates for life time. Shivaji styla sollanumna Chumma adhiradi panirukanga. Intha creative team athu ithunu padam arambikum bothu sonangale avanga enna senchangnu theriyala. Raghuvarana totala waste pannirukanga and the list include Manivanan.

Suman does well but still his dialogue delivery sucks. Ethoo madhiri iruku, antha effect varala. Always Rajini movies the villains will be powerful in their personality take Basha, Padayapa or any commercial movie in the recent past. But ivaru buildup ellam ok than but pesum bothu tamlegu madhiri iruku. Vivek Rajini pinnadiye irukaru, first halfla sirika vekararu, poraru. 30 to 40 percent of his Boy’s performance, ambuttuthaan. Opening scene of a Rajini movie eppadi irukanum!! konjam theatrea adhiranum illa aana inga dialoguela than adhirathu varuthu. Opening scena Karthik padam madhiri arambichutanga. Ithu nalatha illa kedathanu theriyala but satisfyinga illa.

Overall the movie is a thorough entertainer and a feast for Rajini rasigan. Cool endra varthaya thayavu senchu Tamil ilakiyathula sethirunga. Inume adutha padam release agura varaikum Tamil nadula veyil eppadinu kettalum coooolnu than padhil varum. Shivaji effect ache….Coooooool!!
