If you cross Chittor district, you get katpadi, if you beat Sivaji you are a deadbody.




After six it is seven and after Sivaji it is heaven.



Only pigs come in groups, a lion always walks alone.



Rajni even pokes fun at his own complexion. When Shriya says she won’t marry him because he is dark, he complains to his mom, “Mom, why was I born dark?” The quick-witted mom replies, “Because dirt shows easily on fair people. I didn’t want you to look dirty.”

Speech by Thomas Friedman of The New York Times....

"When we were young kids growing up in America, we were told to eat our
vegetables at dinner and not leave them. Mothers said, 'think of the
starving children in India and finish the dinner.' And now I tell my
children: 'Finish your maths homework. Think of the children in India
who would make you starve, if you don't.'"

It is on show in Silver City in Mississauga at 5.30 and 9.30 PM. The tickets are 12 bucks for adults and 9 bucks for children.

Rajnikanth to build hospital ......
(2/17/2007)*
According to the reliable sources, super star Rajnikanth has bought eight
acres of land at Ponneri (outskirts of Chennai), and propose to construct a
hospital for the poor and needy, as well as to build a school there.
Rajnikanth and his fans associations are known for their work towards social
causes.

Recently there was news that Rajnikanth sent in messengers along with help
to those who crossed shores from Srilanka to Rameswaram. Talks are that
Latha Rajnikanth might take care of the proposed hospital and the school
project at Ponneri. Latha Rajnikanth is running successfully "The Ashram"
school in Chennai, also managing the Dhaya Foundation ably *
Mini biography*
Shivaji Rao Gaekwad (Rajnikanth) was born on December 12, 1949 in Karnataka.
He was a bus conductor during which time he reportedly caught the fancy of
the bus travellers with his mannerisms and style of issuing tickets and
blowing the whistle and so on. Looking to become an actor, he moved to
Chennai and joined the film institute. It was here that he caught the eye of
K. Balachander, a director known for introducing talented, new faces into
the tamil film industry.

Balachander gave him a small role - as the no-good husband of Srividya - in
Aboorva Raagangal and the rest, as they say, is history. Rajnikanth soon
graduated to playing villains and his style, swagger and casually unique
brand of villainy vowed the movie-going public. Be it the sadistic husband
of Sujatha in Avargal or the wolf in sheep's clothing in Moondru Mudichu or
the lust-filled village rowdy in Bharathiraja's 16 Vayadhinile, Rajnikanth
was the villain the people loved to hate.

From here, it was a small step for Rajni, playing the anti-hero and
finally, the hero in Bhairavi. Rajnikanth firmly captured the vacant, action-hero slot in tamil movies with a series of movies where he routinely
bashed up the bad guys who had done him injustice in one way or the other.
Once in a while he did movies like Aarulirundhu Arubadhu Varai or Johny
which gave us glimpses of his acting potential. But action was what the fans
expected from a Rajni movie and action was what he gave them. He has been
superstar for the past 25 years.

Viewed this movie at Silver City for the second time.

NEVER IN THE INDIAN/ASIAN MOVIE INDUSTRY SONGS HAVE BEEN SHOT LIKE THIS AND TECHNOLOGY USED SO EXTENSIVELY. THE MOVIE SETS FOR SONGS OF VAJI -SIVAJI & SAHANA ARE ON PAR WITH HOLLYWOOD. SEEING THESE SONGS ON BIG SCREEN IS BELIEVING.

The movie overall is a typical Rajni movie all magic and no logic. It is like visiting a circus. The stunt sequences are all straight inspired by Matrix. Age is catching up with Rajni and it shows on big screen.

But technology use/understanding and adaptation is something Shankar and company have done so well. The movie is bit long( nearly 3 hours without break).The song of oru kudam sunlight where Rajni's skin color has been digitally enhanced to be fair is amazing. The first song shot near Pune and also at the very place Brangelina stayed while shooting Mighty heart is superbly enhanced for screen color and richness.

PIXAR/DISNEY watchout the next best animation/animators are waiting in the wings in Chennai/Bangalore.

Technology rules & rocks !.
