Super Star in & as LINGAA ♠Anushka ♠ARR ♠KS Ravikumar

Idhu thaan boss puriyala "Bottom line is there was a pre plan executed very well to bring down this movie right from day one"..what pre-plan? are you saying Vijay/SAC,politicians? who??
For me its other way..whenever rajni movie flops the opportunist are trying to exploit to defame rajni,,it happened with baba when ramdoss exploited,now seeman/velumurugan are exploiting..
Don't talk about overseas..in overseas even kuselan is not flop..overseas film flop aagaathu because their estimation is only 1st day/preview collections which will be 70% of total which anyhow they will get it for top star movies..

Next you said "Lingaa definitely had the potential to become a decent hit" - To some extent I agree but to achieve that it has to come from family audience and not with hardcore rajni fans/youth..unmaiya sollunga unga groupla ethana rajni fans'ku padam pudichirukku..rajni fans didn't like that much because of rajinism missing in the movie but definitely family audience will like this movie to some extent but one need to accept during exam time family members wont go to theaters,by the time exam is over more movies are released in theaters like pisasu,kayal,etc..I am sure these ppl would haven't had guts to release the movie on dec 19,25 if WOM is good for lingaa..
Pisasu announced their release date of dec 19 by sunday just 2 days after lingaa release..
so many movie release along with WOM hampered the collections further..

You are trying hard to list Lingaa with Baba & Kuselan.
Yes Lingaa had mixed reviews with hardcore Rajini fans feeling Rajinism being missing, but fans like me liked it even better than Sivaji for example.
Lingaa definitely was targeted towards family audience and that is exactly Mr. Singaravelan spoiled by his agenda driven propaganda from the 5th day of the movie release.
All nuetral fans of me who watched here liked the movie. Baba & Kuselan were totally rejected by almost everybody.

To say that every movie will be hit overseas is another blanket statement which is not true.
I don't think there is nothing more to add.
