So much excited and I felt the electricity in me when I heard these words (refer this blog's title) from Rajini’s next animation movie ‘SULTAN’..this was the theatrical trailer of the Thalaivar’s next animated movie before the start of Sivaji…. Oh yes I finally managed to get the ticket and watched it in the middle of the week….(gotto take a day off…its alright ‘udal mannuku… 1 day leave thalaivaruku’…end of the day, its worth)
I was ontime and all set to watch the much awaited, hyped, anticipated movie …. What should I look forward in this movie??? Is it A R Rehman’s music, Sankar’s direction, Antony’s editing, Anand’s cinematography, Thotta dharani’s immaculate sets…. Above all the one and only DON of the tamil cinema, the thalaiva, the super star’s action itself…. Know what??? All these hypes haven’t gone on a toss… all the efforts are apt… and the project is ‘THE ONE’ and unique…. Never ever in Indian cinema…. I remember when I went to see the movie ‘BABA’ on the first day first show, got disappointed a lot with the paucity of grip…this time everythingz perfect and man, you gotta watch this damn amazing master piece of this team….
I don’t wanna sit on the story and break the surprise to you.. just wanna share about my feelings at various stages of the movie as follows
Thalaivar’s entry: I expected it to be grand'er (like in padayappa) but the projection is little milder than what I thought.. its quite common with sankar and this kinda entry actually suits the story…..so stunned with thalaivar's out look.... so damn young for his age....
The first song: ‘Ballelaka’ was cool and made every one chill with Nayantara featuring in it …. Look at thalaivar .. so young, so charismatic, so energytic… don say he is above 50….
Vivek : This chap won accolades… his slapstick humour never let any movie down and this movie is one of his top performance… I always admire his quick wit and expressive comedy.. no wonder he is china kalaivanar….if you say vadively in chandramuki then vivek proved his position in SIVAJI
Shreya: the homely girl (apart from songs) filled the position very well and was really cute with her handy acting… outclasses very well in the songs and a very good add on for the movie credits…
Punch dialogues: Whats thalaivar with out punch dialogues… ‘Kanna panninga thaan kootama varum …. Singam epothum single’aaa thaan varum’.... i bet no one else in the world can deliver this with the charm as this master-of-charisma does..... 'pera ketaalay summa athiruthila !!!'
Stunts : peter heins did his homework very well… thalaivar co operated well and strained a lot to bring it well… the climax fight is still in the eyes…
Suman : I should say this guy is an intelligent choice.. though he didn’t impress much with his acting, he suits the role aptly with this sarcastic appearance and dialogue delivery…I should appretiate who ever chose him for this role
Oru koodai sunlight: this song is the real eye catcher… thalaivar is actually a white guy in this movie… its one year hard work in the technicians end to do this ‘picture grating’ thing and it has come out very well enough to see the smile in audience face….
Comedy : Thalaivar and vivek proved best together…. Specially when they try to crack in to shreya’s house. Solomon papaya done his tiny bit very well… the comedy dominates the first half of the movie….
Screen play: Now, this is the highlight of the movie… although this reminds lots of scenes from sankar’s earlier movies Indian, gentleman and mudhalvan, still looks fresh with thalaivar in it… full credits to Sankar being a strong backbone with his amazing intelligence in direction and extrdnry screenplay….good show !!!
There are few
minor reservations abt this movie in my mind as follows
Sahaara song is not to my expectation… I would love to see that song in a nature rich part of europe… still done the best with the indoor…
Mayilsamy, chinnijayant and damu been given a oorugai part (touchable) wer they desperate to show ther heads in the movie for 10 secs????
It was only thalaivar and vivek took the most of the movie and no room to show some action from villan’s end… Suman is more a model in the movie
A stretchy first half where every one irritates the hero when he is on his attempt to do good…. at one point made me think ‘Come on thalaiva…enough patience … now show some sincilating style and action’
Best scenes:When thalaivar sits in the tea shop and negotiates with suman with the black money in front of income tax office…. BGM was sexy that time….
When thalaivar tosses the bubble gum to his mouth and the one rupee coin in his own stylish way…. (I am practicing the same way but wasted lots of bubble gums so far)
The 2 stunts, one when thalaivar gets the black money from suman and the other one is climax fight… (just observe the music too)
When he clearly explains how our country suffers due to those big shots logging black money in ther back yard ….(this is real learning even for literates)
Oru koodai sunlight song…. Man its spain and its thalaivar and its shreya and its arr and above all its technology that rules
Thalaivar enters again in other getup with his head shaved up…. Kudos to costume designer and the make up artist…
Altogether, the movie is a master piece and a complete family entertainer with the calculated and healthy mix of romance, fun, action, sentiment and MESSAGE…
