PLOT:
Vaanavaraayan (Rajnikanth) plays the role of a feudal chieftain, adored and respected by his village people. He lives with his grandparents (M. N. Nambiar & Manorama). Following his advice, they abstain from voting in the elections and instead, pool the money given by the candidates to get themselves some basic amenities. Vallavaraayan (Napoleon) is his arch enemy. Their enmity is further sharpened when Vaanavaraayan wins the hand of Vaitheeswari (Meena), whom Vallavaraayan had also wished to wed. So Vallavaraayan convinces the priest at the temple to mix a poison in the holy water that Vaitheeswari drinks. As a result she becomes incapable of conceiving.
Vallavaraayan humiliates Vaanavaraayan in temple when the whole village is gathred that he does not have a child. Ponni (Aishwariya) accuses Vaanavaraayan of illegal relationship with her but withdraws it & reveals that she could not bear Rajini being humiliated.
But surprisingly, Vaitheeswari soon becomes pregnant-though she has pretended with the help of the mid-wife (S. N. Lakshmi), to do so to uphold her husband's honor. She takes poison and kills herself unable to bear the grief of being incapable of giving her husband a child and on her deathbed makes Vaanavarayan swear to take Ponni (Aishwariya) as his wife. Vaanavarayan however refuses until Ponni agrees to marry Sembattai ('Thalapathi' Dinesh)- Vallavarayan's hechman-who abandons her to Vallavarayan's vice. Infuriated Vaanavarayam attacks Vallavarayam and spares his life after giving him a sermon on how to win the heart of people.
PERFORMANCE:
Rajini , is a delight to watch in this movie as a simple village guy. It is refreshing to see Rajini without any problems like reforming the society and other problems.
Meena- beginning of long innings in tamil as heroine she excels
GOundamani & Senthil- Nothing to say they always rock does it again
Napolean- For an audience to enjoy , a villan must pose a threat to hero , Napolean is apt for it
Dalapathy Dinesh fights are superb
Manorama, MN Nambiyar comic sense, sentiment scenes are too good
Aishwarya has done a bold role nice portrayal
TRIVA:
It is the eight movie for AVM with Thalaivar
The movie ran for more than 100 days
The movie was initially flop but AVM marketed the movie nicely . A letter from a woman about the impact of the movie was widely used in newspaper s. The movie gined momentum and became a hit.
Meena was initial choice for Devar Magan Revathi role but since the movie got delayed she was roped in for this movie
It was the first movie for Napolean , Rocky Rajesh with Thalaivar
For Aishwarya also this is first movie with Rajini
Once in a party few people were commenting that AVM movies won’t be a hit now a days , Rajini heard this & planned this movie.
Chinna Gounder was to be released that time.
Some people convinced Rajini to go in for a different director than SPM and Rajini was convinced hence RV udayakumar was chosen as a director
Initially RV Udayakumar asked Rajini , Whether Iam doing your movie or you are doing my movie to Which Thalaivar replied
“ Pl direct my movie” Meaning Action movie
Hence a movie Jilla Collector was convinced. It had Rajini in dual roles. Hero& villan. Many of them might have seen Stills of Rajini with a bag & cigar
But Chinnagounder was a big success and hence Rajini opted for a rural subject and chose to act in RV Udayakumar ‘s movie hence this movie was made .
During those time Rajini could not spend much time with his family , RV Udayakumar was very worried and decided to set it right. He urged Rajini to bring his family to Pollachi and stay in Palace of Vanavarayan house . Rajini’s family( Wife & daughters ) came for a week end stay., but it turned out to a week long visit. During that time Aishwarya & Soundarya would even call for Start & Cut as instructed by director.
The movie had another climax that is Vaanavarayan marries Ponni in the end and has a daughter he names Vaitheeswari (appears in the extended DVD version)
HIGHLIGHTS:
Songs, Comedy, Ladies sentiment, Rajini’s acting in second half
FINAL VERDICT:
A family movie especially for ladies
HOME VIDEO:
Available in Moser Bear 3 in 1 DVD.
Hi Thalaivar fans,
Do you like this?
This week is Sivaji week Last in AVM & Thalaivar combo
SIVAJI
BEHIND THE SCENES:
It is the nineth movie for AVM with Thalaivar
Shankar had written this story for Rajini long time back . MS guhan contacted Karuna from Ayangaran ( Their overseas distributors) and hence Shankar was roped in.
Rajini was given a token advance of Rs 1001 and he did not get any money till the movie was completed and was sold out.
It was 60th year for AVM, so Guhan decided to go for lavish production like Gemini’s chandralekha and hence Sivaji was made.
About the leading lady for the film, there were initial speculations on who would essay the role. Aishwarya Rai, Rani Mukherji, Ayesha Takia,[13] Trisha, Nayantara and Jyothika were rumored to bag the role.
However, the air was cleared when Shankar and Rajinikanth announced that Shriya Saran would essay the role as Rajinikanth's love interest.[ The voice of Kanika, an actress, was used as a voice-over for Shriya.[16] Actress Sunaina was signed up to make a special appearance in the film. The scene was later deleted and her role was left uncredited; the same occurred for Vinu Chakravarthy.
Nayantara, who had earlier acted with Rajinikanth in Chandramukhi (2005), was also signed up later to do an item number in the film.
Names of Mohanlal,[18] Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Nana Patekar, Sathyaraj and Prakash Raj cropped up for the portrayal of the antagonist's role in the film.
In March 2006, Suman was confirmed as the person selected to play the role of Adiseshan.[20] The director, Shankar, realized that Suman lacked the wry smile needed for his character.
This conspicuous smile of Adiseshan was made possible with a denture.[citation needed] It was Shankar's idea again to adorn the character with spotless dhoti, shirt, shoes, a Rolex watch and Ray Ban sunglasses.
Prior to this, Suman had acted with Rajinikanth in Thee (1981).
In early 2006, a magazine came out with a cast list that included mimicry artists, Cochin Haneefa, Chinni Jayanth and Mayilsamy.[22] The names of support cast for the film was released in a phased manner.[ By mid-2006, Manivannan, M. S. Baskar, Livingston, Vadivukarasi, Pyramid Natarajan, Uma Padmanabhan, Pattimandram Raja, Vannakam Thamizhuzhagam Revathi, Solomon Pappayya, Muthukaalai, Nellai Siva, Bose Venkat and M'Sia Prabhu were selected for the film

TRIVA:
The film was a remake of the Kannada film Bombay Dada starring Tiger Prabhakar, Vani Vishwanath, Vajramuni and Lakshmi. Prabhakar, the director and hero of the Kannada film, portrayed the negative role in the Tamil version.
When the project was decided it was Rajini who suggested to remake Bombay Dada, Kannada Movie.
In this movie, Superstar Rajini was called "Mr.Right" and all his t.shirts in this movie had the "tick" symbol. There was a short sensation among Rajini fans during this time as they used to flock to the tailor shops to put a "tick" mark embroidary on their shirts.
Dance Master Lawrence danced with Rajini in Adi Jumpa Song
The film released to largely negative reviews and was a rare box office disaster for a Rajinikanth movie. After giving string of hits, this became one of his rare movies furing his period to fail at the box office.
The songs
• Ulagathukkaaga Pirandhavan - Mano
• Paandiyanin Raajiyathil - Mano, Chitra
• Paandiyana Kokkaa Kokka - Mano
• Ada Jumpa Ippo - Mano, Chitra
• Anbe nee enna - Mano, Chitra
Were a super hit.
Paandiyanin Raajiyathil song was composed by Karthik Raja
This was Rajinikanth's last film with SP. Muthuraman.
This is one of the few Rajini films which did not have any tracks sung by S.P. Balasubramaniam.
This is the movie made for the unit of SPM including Editor, Assistant directors, makeup man etc and they are still leading a decent life based on this movie profits
During the making of this movie Kamala( wife of SPM died) Rajini asked to cancel the shoots but AVm Saravanan had a talk with distributors who said they would be at a loss if the movie did not release on Diwali. Saravanan revealed it to SPM who came for shooting the next day.
This movie’s Rajini’s police episodes were shot in Pondicherry. Huge Public crowds were watching the proceedings of shooting which astonished political parties who were watching Rajini’s movements those days with care.
Kushboo was introduced by SPM in Dharmathin Thalaivan. As a mark of respect she refused to negotiate salary hence AVM Saravanan enquired about her salary with various producers and SPM gave her salary that she was receiving those days( Token of gratitude)
Jayasudha made her comeback to Tamil Cinema after a gap of few years
This movie was released in Diwali 1992 along with Devar Magan.
When Rajini was to do a fim with AVm with a director other than SPM, AVm saravanan asked Rajini to first complete SPM movie and then Yejaman was started.
SPm knew only direction marketing was taken care of AVM Saravanan & his son MS Guhan
Vijay’s Pokiri had a similar story line.

Revisited Jhonny after a long time, never realised the director was Mahendran :oops: ! The Romance Chemistry between RK and SD looked really matured love and affection. Superbly down by Mahendran ! Not to mention RK and SD's performance to enchance such scenes rAsA adds his awesome BGM, together with "En vaanile " by Jency, an absolute treat to the Eyes and ears!
Till now, I used to think KH and JP's romance was the best from "Salangai Oli" !
Paramasivan sir,
Me too saw the movie yesterday loved it to the core plus it was raining yesterday, raining in movie, hilly locales , nice romance, songs 2 good
Next Iam going to write about it
