Super Star RAJINIKANTH IN AS Kochadaiyaan || ARR|| Directed by Soundarya Rajnikanth

[Russellfws]

Let me not get into a "replying" spree but stick to be general and talk about the teaser. For me, Kochadaiiyan rests as a prestigious project and I will always take a precautious step while talking about it. I would like to first talk about some aspects that I saw in the teaser, before entering into budjet constrains - direction - music - story and all, moreover setting myself a bit back from making global conclusions that too after watching a 1m10s teaser.

In the teaser, $$-$$ => seconds interval

18-20 - ariel view of a palace (seagulls noise) => Rajini not seen
25-26 - the arena (crowd cheering) => Rajini not seen
28-30 - horse back (horse nahing + horse foot-step & dust noise) => Rajini not seen
32-33 - warrior back, warrior jump (sword swing noises) => 1st time you see Rajini for a macro second
36-40 - explosion, Fullframe warrior, zoom on angry-face warrior (explosion sound followed by war horns) => 2nd time Rajini seen, this time a full 1 sec
43-44 - 1 leg thavam (lightening sounds masked with war horn thunders and sword swing noises) => Rajini, but the low-angle-camera does allow you to pin him out
47-49 - Horse ride, group dance, kick-sword-&-brutal-kill-with-spear, thin bamboo logs falling, King-arthur-style-sword-burying (drum box - possibly a war theme music) => 1st and last frame you have a quick glimpse of Rajini
56-58 - Raja Nadai (theme music - possibly intro song) => Full 2 seconds Rajini

So you have only approx. 17 secs of hyper-fast-editted visuals in the whole 1m10secs teaser. In that 17secs, Rajini is present for 5 secs and in that 5 secs, you actually see him for 3 secs and those 3 secs are a flash. Well ... (don't wish to continue further, think the msg is passed)

A teaser is not from the final cut. But what I saw was an enormous amount of precision on the contrast. The 3D models are fabulous, yet there is a problem with the scope. The scope correction is post-production process and I beleive its ongoing. The above is just an icing analyse, but if I take one such frame "kick-sword-&-brutal-kill-with-spear" was completely briliant. Each movement was captured throughly and in this brief second, the RR was excellent.

Comming to the final 2 seconds that seems to have disappointed many. Again all the movements, including the shadows of the group artists, the lighting effect while Rajini is walking towards us, not to mention the hair and face of Rajini are captured excellently.

intha analysis ellam public/fans panna mattanga...! they just want to see if they will enjoy the end product...if end product not enjoyable no point in talking about why it din't turn out okay...
