Sivaji - The Boss! - Release & Review

The hype and the great expectations have come to end. So many punch lines and story lines has rumored around us before release. June 15th put a full stop for this all and we can call it as “Sivaji Festival”, my goodness how much happiness among the Rajini fans. The major news channel conducted many poll for Sivaji and compared with Big-B. It’s really amazing, huge difference between fan clubs, the remuneration and many. When our superstar spoke to CNN-IBN he said, “I don’t think we should be compared. He is an emperor and I am only probably a king. He is my inspiration and a role model for me. How can you compare Amitabh Bachchan and Rajinikanth?” the Tamil superstar asked humbly.

The actual story is a matter of creating a new society with free education and health by acquiring “Black Money” from Dons and huge B’s. I describe this movie as “Shankar paathi, Rajini paathi kalanthu seithe kalavai S-I-V-A-J-I. First half of the movie filled with his styles, romance and comedy. After interval, Singapaathai, (The lion’s way) lot of actions, usually Shankar’s screenplay makes us to sit in edge of seat, yes! Sivaji actions are making us to gnawing our teeth. The way of changing black money to white is really superb and can acceptable legally too.

Post production eats more time, excellent color and graphics work but some area leaks. Heck! Our superstar movie is invincible and these minor leaks cannot even touch the border of the frame. Ticket rate was playing skate in Himalayas for first three days. Rs.1000 for each ticket in Albert theatre (famous for Rajini releases) for first day and second day costs around Rs.500, finally it comes down to Rs.300 on Sunday and it could not be predicted in this weekdays. But the peoples who have involved in black ticket market will have their real “Deepavali Festival” for this Rajini release. The first day celebration was real rocking, “Paal Abishegam”, “Soora Thenggai”, “5000 Wala Sara vedi” total road was blocked. Ultimately Sivaji release created the huge expectations among not only Rajini’s fans and I started with my view here. Lets see how this come up!!

Mmm. I must admit that lot of hype created to ensure that movie runs successfully and somehow the team managed to draw the attention and crowd.

It seems to be regular shankar formula with same message. For this anybody can acted as hero. As he does earlier, no need for Rajini. Also i believe that Vivek has better scope in the movie than Rajini.

As long as Die-hard fans of Rajini, is there to spend money, Anybody can produce such movie and still manage to get a good return.

I have not seen the movie yet so i reserve my rating at this moment.
