Seems a lot of activity last night :cool:
yes.. Rajini is the best when it comes to comedy in TFI..his timing is :notworthy: :thumbsup:
Nerd, great job :thumbsup: :clap: , (cant see youteeb in office :evil: )
Can we change the polls? i think it is time for a different poll..
Nerd,
youteeb thevaiyilla :lol: By seeing the list most of the scenes are playing inside.. :D
and that triggers an intresting question..
Did he make the right choice of moving towards commercial cinema??
IMO, it might be a blunder..I think he will still be the No.1 star if he has stayed on the so-called "class" acting..
to add to that point, is there anybody who has done such variety of roles in their initial career.. Take rajini's first 50 films.. what a performance :notworthy: almost each one of them is different from the other.. he has made his mark firmly and excelled in style, acting, comedy, villan etc etc..
Can, but fans must ottumotthamaa agree that Kali is his best character and close this poll and announce victory to our camp :twisted:Quote:

shall we will give 2 day deadline for this poll and request all to give top 10 comedy scenes of Rajini?

I suppose you mean, class film as oppose to mass. While hubbers may fight over the definition, Rajini himself has a set of his own when he confessed during the fans meet that he like to be a "class" film actor. I suspect there is a regret within him that he did not continue on the path set forth through those films.
It's not too late. He can start Mach III or IV, whichever phase you would like to break, and start doing strong roles. His age is a great excuse to do majestic roles.
Grouch, :lol:
fans meet.. exactly thats what i want.. he said he changed his path for fans.. (It sounded like he regretted that decision..he simply put the blame on fans which may not be right.. He chose films like that and people loved him.. thats it.. Note : people accepted his 6-60..)
But in Kamal function he said he smartly choose this path so that he can be successful.. which is contradictory to his earlier statement...
anbd IMO he will definitely be successful even if he havent changed his path..
reg commercial films i agree to your point.... but what I meant is.. selecting variety of roles, not the hero-worship ones all the time..
he along with this directors and producers have took the fans in this direction and now it might not be possible to go back..
yes.. age (and to an extent Amithabh's roles) can be used as a excuse to change the path.. lets hope for that.. but the chances are very little..
hamid, konjam explicit-A sollunga. adhAvadhu, commercial path edukkalainA, class acting-layum kamal-ai minji iruppArnu solla varIngaLA? Depending on your response, we'll get Thirumaran to respond to you :-)
Seriously, I would definitely like Rajni to do what Amitabh is doing now ( I mean in films, not the jatti viLambarams that Amit-ji stars in) and shut the north indies' mouth for ever that "only Amitji" can do such roles.
Plum,
if that is what you want to infer I dont have problems with that.. :lol:
anyway let me try to put it clear...
1. Did Fans didnt really force him to change path?
2. what will his position be if he hasnt changed his path?
3. Is that a right decision?
IMO Even if he hasnt changed his path he would have been successful and will be a bigger star
(bigger than Kamal or not - maybe or maybe not..but he wont be far from Kamal.. thats for sure.. but, donot make this as the point of argument.. I afraid only hate discussion will start then.. )
One important reason for making this point as a Rajini fan is.. the argument put against him most of the time is he is just a mass actor.. he cant act in so called class films.. and the worst part is he(rajini) himself expressses that in public..
Amen to that, brother. Put his heart and mind to it, he can blow any NI Jis out of the screen!!! :twisted:Quote:

Almost all the smaller stars except them act in ads and endorse products in TFI.
That's his humility talking sar!Quote:

I personally think Rajni took things as they came. He could have continued to be what he was before he became a superstar but I wonder if he had a career path in mind at all.
One thing that characterises Kamal is his ambition to make certain films that match his sensibiltiies and taste. Rajni doesnt sound or look like he ever had those ambitions. There was this burning desire to become an actor, and from there whatever comes seems to have been his motto.
At some point, more than the fans, self serving producers and financiers might have fed this superstar image and it probably grew beyond his control. Also, his avoidance of political confrontations speak of a man who wants to live his own life peacefully with whatever comes.
I wish and hope that somehow this fan following melts away and he is forced to reinvent himself as an actor.
If you're questioning about his capabilities of being a "Class Actor" then I beg to differ with your remarks. IMO, he has always been a class actor from his earlier days right...more than being a class actor, he's been a star who stands apart from all the other actors..Quote:

Coming to think of it, even in the worst film, Rajini has manage to bring out a class acting from his side.
I can picturise him doing a lot of roles donned previously by other actors and yet I know that he would be able to carry those roles in his own style... but try as I might, I could never imagine any other actors doing justice to the roles that Rajini has done...at least not in the way Rajini has.
Hamid/AudazJay,
When it's not clear to anyone (it certainly isn't to me!) what a "class actor" (or a "class film") even means, I think we should just not use it. :)
What I find quite perplexing here is the almost schizophrenic nature of the discourse. On the one hand, a lot of people here undoubtedly enjoy several Rajini films, and on the other hand, there's a constant invocation of the "other" Rajini of the yore (late 70s and early 80s on and off) implying that he used to do "serious cinema" back then. It seems there's a sense of anxiety with respect to Rajini's stature as a "serious" actor which I think is totally unwarranted. Is it even a matter of debate that the Rajini phenomenon is about something else, or at any rate not really about his being a "serious actor?" I mean, the discussion somehow gets narrowed down to some handful of films. Outside Mahendran and KB, most of these films are not even worth talking about.
Adha thaan avaru establish panraaru (whatever the different terms 'class acting' , 'school acting' mean) :lol:Quote:

There are 2 different things here..
1. career path - I agree with you on this..
2. kind of roles - I partially disagree on this.. Yes. he doesnt seem to have an ambition.. but he had a liking.. he even hinted about that at the fan meet.
He seem to be a man who is easily convinced. maybe.. that is one reason for the change..

Yaaru solraanga? I dont recall anything in the last few pages to that effect.
Speaking for myself, I reject his acting from and including Annamalai - that is precisely what I dont want him to do - and bear in mind, I dont mean the songs, dances, stunts and superstarisms - I mean the 'acting' parts of these films are precisely what I dont want him to do. Those who are holding those as a 'proof' of his acting skills are the ones doing him a disservice - like Kuselan climax - a typical cliche in TN circles is to say it shows glimpses of "Rajni, the actor". Excuse me, Rajni has done much better stuff much before. I'd rather have him do Baba than the "acting" in such movies and scenes. Before Kuselan, there was VaLLI which bore the unfortunate burden of being "proof" for his acting skills from such supporters :lol:
I never rated Thalapathi but post the surge of support here, happened to revisit, and was duly impressed. So, agree with P_R there, that was the last recorded instance of a super performance.
plum., I didnt say u said it.. and my posts are not immediate or direct responses to such posts.. I strictly follow NOV's siggy for such posts :cool:Quote:
