Thanks Vasudevan-sir. Though TMS somehow does not suit Rajini (the other songs), here he was okay, very sad song indeed.

Thanks of the info Grouch..

aana ivalothaan aunga reaction.. I thought you are going to discuss further


//Innonnu category pOtturukkanum - Moral. IU will be bruised //
Yes.. but which one does attract more audience ?

[groucho070]

More discussion-A, hmm...

Okay, my further reasoning on why NI will attract more crowd.
1. Enggeyum Eppothum alone. It resurged in popularity recently thanks to the remix (or cover, or whatever hell it is) by Yuvan.
2. NI more colourful. More youth-centric, though it is antha-kAlattu youth.
3. Rajini is hillarious, spontaneous hilarity.
4. Speaking of which, the film goes from comedy, to song, to romans, back to comedy. Don't know why it didn't do well then, I thought it was a perfect entertainer.
5. Kamal at his most youthful, Jaya Pradha at her most...okay Sagar Sangamam...well, she was beautiful here too.
6. The other band members too had their own share of comedy.
7. One of the best ever music form MSV.

Why IU will not attract that much crowd.
1. Ennadi meenakshi may suffer from rebuttall from many with that name. Some who sang may even have experience sexual harassment/eve teasing suit. Not helped by Kamal doing Elvis.
2. Frankly, Rajini may have been stylish, but not a memorable role. Betty bought a bitter butter ulpada.
3. No seriously, hardly nay laugh out loud comedy.
4. Taneer karuthiduchu may have been raunchy back then, but now it looks like mating rituals of a water buffalo
5. Rajini/Kamal fight scene looked as sincere as a brawl by a pair of poodles.
6. Jeyachitra
7. Sripriya
8. anti-YGM movement may be alarmed of his father's presence, plus violent protest by Jayakanthan fans.
9. It feels very long.
10. Actually I like this movie, but NI-kAga itha promote panna mAttEn

Yes I prefer NI over IU simply because of the songs!

I have seen parts of IU on Raj TV. The print was very bad with several cuts & jumps. Re-release will be a tough task.

Grouch, hilarious comparison post One small nitpick - the remix was by GVP, not Yuvar.

Nitpick on nitpick - GVP didn't do the remix, it was done by Yogi.B
