The Burning Stomach

Posted by Ramya Shankar on Wednesday, June 27, 2007 in ,
Update : I saw it ! I saw it ! I was armed with whistles too! At one point of time, I was whistling so much that I had to stop it to hear the punch dialogs. I enjoyed the movie and yes thalaivar rocks ! :D

The current buzzword in Chennai is Sivaji ! Why Chennai?, the hype has created waves all over the world and even on blogsville. Every third blog carries a review of Sivaji ! Where ever you go people are all praises about the movie and how "Cool" thalaivar looks or how sexy Shriya's clothes are or how brilliant the music by ARR is or how fab Thotta Tharani's sets look & of course Shankar, the skipper of the movie. Now that's a bonanza combination !

Despite exorbitant ticket rates, messy pumpkin strewn floors , showering flowers and milk dripping hoardings, nothing is holding the people all over the world to watch The boss in action.
Even if the distributors decided to screen "Sorgam" during the interval, people might not walk out of the cinema hall !! Sivaji will stand out amongst all Baasha's & Padayappa's just because of the way in which Shankar has portrayed thalaivar ! The charismatic screen presence of Rajinikanth overshadows the illogical story line & a few other weak technicalities that most reviews have mentioned about! As long as the Super Star is on screen with his punch dialogs and whip sounding stunts, the crowd would remain on the edge of their seats !

Alright, I'll stop fibbing now, I haven't watched the movie because I can't whistle and yes yes I can't get the tickets either ! Maybe next time I must use my drama skills in the ticket queue ! And oh! remind me to strangle the guy who was selling the tickets at a grand each ! ! !

OH,and I saw the movie.There was this dialogue where thalaivar reduced Shriya into a baby making machine. But given that I'm still calling him thalaivar,speaks loads about the man he is!:D

Yet to see??? poor you :P

I saw twice already....

Nothing much in the movie other than Rajnikanth... Not at a Shankar movie...


It sucks to say that its a shankar movie like KK says! The movie was a total bummer, waste of time and $15 precious dollars I could have spent on a Buble Cd.! :( Ugh!

With Regrets.
NY?

Vinod,
Well, those will fit into the classic league, this one just appeals to the masses and they need no other justification! Welcome here! :)


armed with whistles? You mean you actually carried a whistle to the theatre? Like an actual whistle in your pocket?


Cool :)


:)

First time here.


What a grand? When I drive home from work, I pass through a theatre showing Sivaji. Yesterday, I was caught in a a jam right infront of the theatre and I saw a policeman trying to cane a guy. He came over to the other side, that is my window and inquisitive me, asked him what happened, he said "Akka 2 tickets for 1000.." so here it is 500. I am waiting for the crowd to reduce to go watch it.


Manoj,
yes !! :D

KK,
I know ! SO coool !

Rama Iyer !
Welcome here and 500?!?! Wheee ! Not bad ! I saw ppl selling it for 800, 1200 and more


have to disagree with KK, though. Shankar'in kai dhaan ongi irukku padam muzhuka!


Man: Enga aiyya ungala paakanumam, vara sonnaru.

Superstar: Unga GOYYA va inga vara sollu!

---------

Man: Hello kaun hai

Superstar: Aaan, Boss da kena!

-------

Man: Aaaru?

Thalaivar: Aaan Mooooru!

-------

CHANCELESS DIALOGUES. Had a good laugh! :))


That bubblegum bouncing off his palm to his mouth... The flipping of the coin.. wow chanceless!


Thalaivar vaazhga! :)


i sit here in remote corner of sunny athens and i saw the movie.. yap, may be you need work on PRskills..;~)
