[With due respect to Rajnikanth & his fans , no offence meant]

Yes I am talking about Rajnikanth. Release of Endhiran (Robot) has such a massive effect that producers have decided to steer clear of it. For next 4 weeks there is not going to be any further release in Tamil cinema.

Many review writers have decided to stay off the pen this week. Last time when Sivaji the Boss was released I read one review where the person had written I refuse to write since I want to be in my career for few more years.

Today in Chennai they have stared showing the movie in cinema hall from 7.00 am.!
Music of film has sold millions of copies and many are dressing u p like Robo..!

My Q is what keeps him rolling, why is Rajnikanth such a phenomena , why people like to see some one who is much more senior still in role of a angry young man on a clean up mission?

This is worth reading

And he's the best superstar we have, lol. Can't believe that such pathetic actors can be superstars! 😆

It's all in the art of over-acting..🤣

No offense to his fans, but that's just what I think about him. 😆

No offence to anyone but I really really do not want to watch any of his movies... Also I really pity those people who make an actor feel like GOD

i think part of his appeal comes from the fact that he is a hardworking honest human being who has helped people the best he can

I find him SO overrated! How the hell is he India's highest paid actor I will never know. :S
For the next 4 weeks, there won't be any other release? What kinda craziness is that.

I don't even want to see this movie in bollywood, most expensive movie or not. Or maybe I will go watch it to see how pathetic it is lol. But then again maybe i'm biased because i've seen iRobot and am a HUGE will smith fan.

Don't know whether its only about creativity or geniousness, because down south there is a tendency to go crazy after top actors/actress and actresses to the extent of worshipping them...Few years back when Kannada actor Rajkumar died his fans created rukus in Bangalore.. Many people committed suicide...There are many other examples..
I was dragged to hall by my south indian friends in UK when Shivaji released. I was surprised to see they are clapping, whistling every scene Rajni is appearing, clapping after every dialogue Rajni is uttering despite the fact it was really rubbish..They were neither interested in the quality nor the content but only in Rajni..I was like what the heck, whatever he does is great, dont scrutinize him..That's insane....

And I went to see this movie and I am full of knowl about it..😆
Thanks to promotional ticket from a company.
Well it is a typical Rajnikanth movie where there is nothing Rajni can't.

He shoots bullets from his fingers. Can run horizontal on
the walls.


Huge money has been spent on outdoor locations for songs.
The action sequence director from Matrix & Kill Bill have been roped in for action scenes.
There are multitude of technicians from Hollywood for the movie.

A typical Rajnikanth movie where you must not use brain.

For the reaon I wen to see this movie; songs & Back ground score by A R Rahman who has not been in reason for good reason of late.

Well kya kahe, not so great songs; compared to his own standards.

But here & there you come across parts/samples/bars which displays his talent in a flash. he is still very much there.
