Favorite Scenes/Songs from THALAIVAR Rajini films #3

Watched RANGA last night, and now it's JOHNY! :boo:

'ஆஜ் ரப்பட்'டுக்கு என்ன கொறச்சல்? :?

'namak halAl' trailer -primarily featuring this song and another dance number, was it Parveen B ? - created so much of sensation those days on theater! (I happened to watch the trailer at least thrice).

And we a bunch of students were properly ஆஜர் in theater (Sona in Trichy? or was it Maris complex? Don't remember correctly now) when the movie came :-)

Then when the movie made it to the college audi, we noted down the song timing during first show.

The whole gang went to the audi just for the song during 2nd show :-)

Sad that Smita Patil died so young :-(

Watching BILLA this morning!

Intha Billa yaar kailayum pidi padavum maattan, ivana yaaralayum pidikavum mudiyaathu.

:notworthy:

Portions of Mullum Malarum yesterday.

The scene in which Rajini asks Shoba 'kudumbathai kaappaathura periya manushi aayittungeelaa' after catching her at her first day job ever. 'pathu vayasulayE ungalai naan kaapathinEn, ippO onnum kurainju pOyidalai'.

Greatest and the most subtle (relatively) portrayal of a Bro-Sis relationship ever in Tamil cinema. Million thanks to thalaivar's favorite director ever, Mahendran. And Rajini's performance, each and every expression-unbelievable. And he was what, only 28 when the film released. What an achievement :bow:

oru kai pOnadhum shoba Rajini yai sudu thanni erakki veikka solra idam nalla irukkum..

The scene where Rajini beats his colleague for giving false news about him to sarathbabu...
After the crowd pulls him back from the fight,
RAJINI : Avan sonna ellathayum poruthukkuven...Aana en thangachiya patini pottutu naan poi kudipennu sonnan... Adha mattum ennala poruthukka mudiyula...
En thangachi oru naal sappudlana, Adhu indha KALI setha naaladhan irukkum :clap:

Absoleetly.
Rajini's performance is beyond style, ticks and comfort zone. Well-rounded performance. Pachan sahib ellAm not fossible.

Note 1: A telugu remake with Mohanbabu(kALi)-Revathy(vaLLi) exists. Neither live up to the original performances of Rajini/Shobha

Note 2: A hindi remake with Mithunda-???? exists. Not even up to the telugu remake.

Note 3: Malayalam remake with an unknown entity as the keerO and Sri Vidya playing padaphat's character. Highly annoying. I have seen a few scenes.

Watched the rest of the scenes yesterday. VAM has given a knock-out performance as well. Wonderfully acted by everyone. Whats the name of that payapulla, who is also seen in UdhirippookkaL? The scene in which Rajini slowly loses the grip on VAM's shirt (also aided by VAM) just before the climax caught my attention yesterday. Simply outstanding.

Also in the climax after Valli returns to Kaali, Kaali makes the decision in a matter of few seconds. It was subtly yet beautifully shown by Mahendran and wonderfully acted by Rajini. I thought I would post the YouTube video and highlight those 2-3 seconds but the climax has been removed from YouTube. High time I upload it along with a few more scenes.
