Sivaji another feather in Rajni's cap, A Sorry story for Shankar

The Most awaited Movie of the year starring the South Indian Super Star Rajnikanth was finally out on June 15th... The movie had grossed its investments even before the release and it was only a formality for fans to check out whether the "Rajshanjikar" really worked out...The answer is a big NO.... The movie strts of well with Sivaji right away in jail.... Thn strts the flash back wher Rajni like ny of his other movie is shown to be a Big time loser in the first half.... the first half though had an entertainin comedy... thanx to Vivek for his impicable one liners fired at Rajni.... I would certainly say this was the first time u get to notice Rajni bein countered upon by a comedian....though i would reckon the first half to be a complete Shriya Saran and Vivek show and Rajni being a loser all through out.... But Shankar should be appreciated for the way he finished the first half.... as he felt it was enough of the new look Rajni and got back the old hair style with a perfect dialogue to round up the first 90 minutes.....Second half goes along well right from the start and a special mention should be given to the villian Suman who did a really good job....The Movie 's success would certainly be due to the performance of the hero as the bald man.... Rajni surly some character of his to get tht role right.... Cinematography by K.V.Anand was a treat.... Peter Hein was a dissappointment with his stunts as much was expected from him after his grand show in Anniyan.... Music by A.R.Rehman is quite an experiment with Rajni and it has to be said tht it did work out....Choreography by Brinda for the enterance was a let down.... Though Prabhu Deva and Lawerance did a great job to get the steps right for the hero.....On the whole it is to be said that Rajni takes most part of the appreciation for the movie and Shankar wasnt seen in the movie until a song did pop in which showed the innovation of Thota Tharani.....



Bottom Line : Watch it once if your in for Shankar or rock the place if you are a Rajni Fan
