Sivaji:Review
Posted by Sri Prasath Venkateswaran on June 16, 2007
The wait is over. After a Long wait of “26 Months” after Chandramukhi and “22 Months” after “Anniyans”, The filmi kingkongs has created the magic, matching to the expectations of ardent Rajini and Shankar fans.
I was lucky to watch the movie on the first day first show, which I’ve doing for every Rajini’s movie for the past 15 years.
The story knot is so simple, How Blackmoney erupts the society, while money launders keep on pestering the poor.
Rajni, a NRI comesback to India from US, with his saving of 200 crores to start a University and Hospital. But due to the corrupt political system, he has to bribe the Government Officials(Which he doesn’t want to) and the Minister to start the same.
Suman, Who runs a similar type of Hospital and University does not like Rajni’s plans and he makes use of the corrupt politicians to bring down Rajini’s dream. When Rajni’s becomes bankrupt, he lends one Ruppee coin to Rajini,asking him to beg.
From there, the magic starts….
Kudos to Thottatharani and KV Anand for their splendid works on sets and cinematography. Peter Hayne, with this splendid action choreography has done excellent work, by directing his own master “Kanal Kannan” in the Musical fight.
Sujatha has penned a full of comical dialogues in the first half, action dialogues in the second half. Sujatha has made Rajni to imitate Vadivelu, when he attends to attract Shreya by attending a Sucide attempt by saying “Enna Vacchu onnum Comedy kemady panalaya”. The Punch dialogues like “Payra keeta summa adirthula” and the “Bubble Gum” Style and the Mottai Rajni drumming style is excellent.
Vivek has supported Rajni in comedy and action throughout the movie, by being his uncle. The comedy done by Solomon Pappaiyya and Raja is mind blogling.
A.R.Rahman has created the “Rajini Magic” again in Both BGM and Songs. Anthony has done his usual editing. All I can say is this “This is Shankar’s Wine in the Rajni Bottle”
