I strongly believe Thalaivar knows the best and will take appropriate action. Its quite obvious, none of the actors of Tamil Cinema will come in support of him. Sathyaraj would be the most happiest person by now..
Throught his career, he has spoken out, what he felt at his heart and thats not a bad thing to do. So truth always lies with Thalaivar. and Truth wins ultimately. |

nerd. don ask me anything. don compare it with his earlier performances. this is unique in its way.
first half is ok with some silly comedies. second half is fast and emotional. vasu with a few sodhappals. thalaivar enters only in the 45th minute. but don go with any expectations to be a superstar movie. but he looks awesome on screen. ![]() |

Kuselan- A typical Rajni film which is untypical M Bharat Kumar | Fri, 01 Aug, 2008,03:06 PM . Rajnikanth movie minus his insouciant style, punch dialogues, over-the-top fights is perhaps older than the dinosaurs. Kuselan is , in that sense, an un-Rajnikanth film. Hmm...in many other senses, it is also a typical Rajnikanth film. P Vasu's success may lie in the fact that he has grappled with this paradox with certain amount of adroitness and nifty thinking. . If anything, Vasu has gone the whole hog to purvey the 'super man on screen' as a 'super human in real life'. Kuselan, as we said, is not so much 'around' him as it is 'about' Rajni. Kuselan, if anything, underlines the mass image of Rajni and banks heavily on that. But yet, it does not resort to typical mass elements. It is a Rajni film without too much of Rajni ---- he appears only after the third reel. His total screen time may be just one-third of the film's length. He has been packaged in a manner that should be acceptable to his legion of fans, who are generally souped up on stylized gimmicks and maverick mannerisms. The set-pieces in the film are carefully crafted so that Rajni, despite his extended guest role, is always in the centre of things (even though he may not be actually on screen). Further, there has been an endeavour to tap the emotional and sentimental aspect of Rajni's persona. The last half-an-hour of the movie aims to pump the lachrymose glands rather than the adrenaline which is otherwise the case in a typical Rajni potboiler. That Kuselan is Rajni's pulpit to sermonise and tackle some queries is obvious from the fact that you get answers to some of the barbs that are generally thrown at him (why the actor prefers to go to Himalayas often? Will he venture to politics? Why he chooses to do only commercial movies?) Visually too, it is Rajni's show all the away as he is presented oozing panache and poise. The two songs pictured on him, which have no real impact on the movie, are veritable showcases, and a compelling nod to his fans. Lest we forget, Pasupathy is the hero of the film. And truth be told, he manages to hold his own even when he should have been aware that he, the hero, will actually be the sidekick. He plays the role of a man with self-dignity but streaked with an inferiority complex (how ironical considering the story of the movie). In a way, it is not a role that is not unlike the one he essayed in Veyyil. The emotional underpinnings of his character are what the film was all about in the Malayalam original (Katha Parayumbol). But here it has been deftly shaped up to be a superstar's bandwagon. Meena's role as a dutiful wife again moves away from the original --- the grey areas in the emotional make-up of her persona are not delved here. Vadivelu's comedy, with its earthy flavour, somehow doesn't seem to work. It is a bit of surprise as a similar comedy attempt in the Malayalam original (involving Salim Kumar, Innocent, Jagathy) gave a finely honed flavour to the story. Nayanthara as Nayanthara provides the glamour quotient. Prabhu, Livingston, Santhanam, M S Baskar, Geetha, Fathima Babu, Brahmanandham, Chinni Jayanth, Mamtha Mohandoss form part of the huge cast. Cinema Cinema, the song to celebrate the 75th year of Tamil Cinema features a host of stars including Kushboo, Sneha, Surya and Soundarya Rajnikanth among others. The story is about two childhood friends: Ashok Kumar (Rajnikanth) becomes the superstar of the industry. Balakrishnan (Pasupathy) lands up as a poor barber in a hamlet. The actor comes to shoot a movie in the village where Balakrishnan lives. Coming to know that the actor is a childhood friend of Balakrishnan, the villagers throng Bala's house seeking typical favours. A self-contained man who values his dignity, he fears to approach Ashok Kumar considering his stature. But when the two meet after a long gap, it is emotions that take over. It is a maudlin story and banks heavily on the belief that such emotionally wrought scripts can still work in cinema halls (otherwise, this stuff of the 70s-80s movies has long moved to the small screen). Cinematographer Aravind Krishna provides smart visual backdrops and music composer G V Prakash, without being outstanding, has come up with acceptable numbers. After Chandramukhi, Vasu has again shown that he has the nous to agreeably tinker with a borrowed story and script. Rajni factor He appears for 58 minutes in the movie He comes in 12 different costumes for a song Rajni has no stunt sequences PLUS Sreenivasan’s story Rajni’s screen presence Pasupathy’s acting MINUS Vadivelu’s comedy Nayanthara’s role Lengthy first half |

some of the raves/positive WOM from kerala. for those who don't follow malayalam... there seems to be a consensus on that it's quite a faithful remake. this is important because chandramukhi was trashed by mal viewers by comparing it with manichitrathaazhu. more importantly, almost all seem to be raving about rajni's performance. i expect it to be a decent hit in kerala, considering that it wasn't sold at a high price either.

hello guys here is my review
First of all actingwise it is superstar's best performance since thalapathy. Overall movie was somewhere between average to good. Superstar acting- very good Pasupathy's acting- very good. Photography- excellent. Songs- Average Direction-Poor comedy- average Notable stuff - Climax. This one for only Nerd: This movie is much better remake of original malayalam when compared with chandramukhi.

hello guys here is my review
First of all actingwise it is superstar's best performance since thalapathy. Overall movie was somewhere between average to good. Superstar acting- very good Pasupathy's acting- very good. Photography- excellent. Songs- Average Direction-Poor comedy- average Notable stuff - Climax. |

This one for only Nerd: This movie is much better remake of original malayalam when compared with chandramukhi.

All the artists in the movie have etched out their roles as wanted. The comedy by Vadivel was good except for some (scenes with his wife Sona) which I didn't enjoy much. I feel that is not required at all. i completely agree with u regarding this point... she is not at all needed... stupid vasu.... Nayanthara looks glamorous and the SuperStar-Nayanthara pair really looks good and that is evident from the visuals. The song picturisations have come out well. yeah the picturisations are good... but i felt the nayanthara song was not at all needed and out of place.... I liked the comedy by Santhanam. He wasn't irritating than in his previous movies. Surprising. yeah his timing was really good... But the best part is about our SuperStar. He is CASUAL, COOL, STYLISH and WHAT NOT. SuperStar in the climax really touches each and everybody's heart. That's the ACTOR in him which we have missed to see him for a long long time. Say around 2 decades. |

I have not written a contemporary Tamizh film review for sometimes, so bear with me. Kuselan : It is a Rajini movie. Rajini? Playing the superstar, he appears awkward. He looks like he’s not sure whether to pattern the role after actor Rajinikanth, or to create something that is everyone’s perception of what actor Rajinikanth is. But in the climax, the actor in him takes over. Yes, the actor in him that I thought has gone extinct, is still there. The one reason that I believed that he was once as good as the other guy, and is also the rightful heir to NT’s chair, is still there. Not so much, but a flicker of flame. I bet a bit of Method acting also came useful, as the emotional scene he narrates has echoes from his, the real Sivaji Rao Gaekwod’s, life. I have now crossed my finger again, hoping to see the great actor in him soon. Overall, a so and so picture that would not have worked if not for Rajini. His presence can be felt throughout the picture when he probably appeared like in half an hour to 40 minutes. He doesn’t have to be around all the time to carry the picture. Interesting addition to the resume of those involved. |

I have not written a contemporary Tamizh film review for sometimes, so bear with me. Kuselan : It is a Rajini movie..... Aside: I hope this will be a closure to the first chapter of Rajini’s career. There is that unforgettable still from Apoorva Raganggal, his first Tamizh film, appearing in many scenes in this film, and the film ends with Rajini baring his soul. I hope he will leave behind the superstardom, superheroism stuff, and step into a more character-oriented role. We need someone who can play strong patriarchal role. We want that great actor in him, the flickered like wildfire in films like Bairavi, Buvana Oru Kelvi Kuri, Mullum Malarum, and the occasional ones like Padikathavan, Tharmathurai, Annamalai, and of course, the explosive Thalabathi. We want him back. We still believe in that great talent in him. We still do. The cinema is getting better, with great stories, wonderful directors, all gearing to push the Tamizh cinema up, and his participation in it will only make it more eventful, with his own global stardom. End of aside. |

Yep, its really strange a big movie didn't release in Coliseum. As u say, there is some problem arised I guess. I still can't believe Coliseum missed showing this movie (could be first time in history). Truth can't be hide longer. The problem will be talk of the town sooner. ![]() |

'Kuselan' marches on SUCCESSFULLY in USA
IndiaGlitz [Monday, August 04, 2008] It was a blockbuster opening weekend for Superstar Rajinikanth in the United States of America. 'Kuselan' continues to march on with the same speed as it opened on August 1 and has been sold out in all major locations in the second week too. The US distributors of 'Kuselan' in lieu of the friendship week have brought the ticket price of the Rajini blockbuster to $10. According to Jayavel Murugan who is marketing the movie for the Pyramid Saimira Group, 'Kuselan' is a movie to be watched with friends and family and we are encouraging repeat audiences. The movie is very good and not just Rajini fans like it. Every single Tamil household likes it. It is a wholesome family entertainer with a fitting climax that can move every one and flood their memories with old forgotten friends. The distributor also highlighted the fact that his team has made the right moves that will encourage folks to come out and watch good movies like 'Kuselan' on the big screen with friends and family. 'Gas and food prices have gone up. Inexpensive movie tickets would indeed be a big relief' he says. After all watching movies is a favorite past time for Indians! http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/article/40517.html |

I also wonder how Rajini decided on his salary for this movie... It looks like the biggest portion of the expenditure would have gone that way? Or, may be not! Or, may be he split his usual salary by 3 considering the time he comes in the movie... Or, maybe I should just not care abt this at all! ![]() |

when CM was made at 5 and sold at 30, and earned 70+(and advertised as 100+!) it was all more than OK. it is superb example for business strategy.
but, when kuselan again made for same 5, sold at 65+ is what making things worse....eventho producers projected it as full length rajini movie, if it was sold for much less price, then everyone wud have made a decent profit, or atleast, worstcase no one wud get a loss...i wonder what made rajni to accept such figures, all other issues cud be balanced but not this one... |

Well the problem with this movie is manifold (Not the quality)
1. Rajini appeared for about 25 mins (sans the songs) and vaachu right from Day 1 was claiming that its a Rajini film. 2. Rajini in all the interviews said he is just playing a cameo, which turned out to be TRUE. 3. Rajini fans were not interested that much, poor opening (Rajini's standarnds) stands as the example. 4. WOM won't be all that good, going by whatever I am hearing. The good news is a Pasupathy film garnering this much in the BO ![]() |

'சந்திரமுகி' படத்திலும ரஜினிக்கு முக்கியத்துவம் இல்லாத கதைதான். அதுமட்டும் எப்படி ஓடியது? என்று யோசித்தால் குசேலனுக்கு ஏற்பட்ட நெகட்டிவ் சிந்தனைகள்தான் இதன் தோல்விக்கு காரணம் என கண்டறியப்பட்டுள்ளது. ஆரம்பத்திலேயே இது எனது படம் அல்ல என்று ரஜினி அறிவித்ததும், கர்நாடக பிரச்சனையில் ரஜினி ரசிகர்களிடையே ஏற்பட்ட அதிருப்தியும் 'குசேலன்' தோல்விக்கு காரணமாகியுள்ளதாக கூறப்படுகிறது. ஆகஸ்டில் வெளிவரும் தனது படங்கள் பெரிய தோல்வியை சந்திக்கும் என்ற ரஜினியின் செண்டிமென்ட் ஆரூடமும் பலித்துள்ளது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. |

That means they are expecting to earn more than Rs 40 crores - which is NO MEAN SUM! and this for a small scale movie that took >8 mos from announcement to release!!! I think there are quite a few actors/producers who would KILL to get those numbers!!! |

'Kuselan' will not spoil Shahrukh's chances – Priyadarshan
IndiaGlitz [Thursday, August 07, 2008] 'Kuselan' has released with heightened fanfare and is running to packed houses in Tamilnadu and Andhra Pradesh. As already reported Rajinikanth's 'Kuselan' is the remake of the Malayalam film 'Katha Parayumbol' written by Sreenivasan. Another Malayalam filmmaker who has been quite successful in Hindi films as well, Priyadarshan, is remaking the film in Hindi with Shahrukh Khan and Irfan Khan in the lead roles and the movie is called 'Billoo Barber'. There was speculation in the media that 'Kuselan' would be dubbed in Hindi soon. According to this information, Shahrukh Khan was reportedly in panic because Hindi audiences would see Rajinikanth in the role he is slated to play. 'Billoo Barber is expected to be released during the Diwali season. This report also added that Rajinikanth had stepped in and assured Shahrukh Khan that the dubbed version of 'Kuselan' would not be released before Diwali. A new light is now thrown on this entire episode. Director Priyadarshan has declared that 'Kuselan' cannot be dubbed into any other language. Says Priyadarshan, 'when P. Vasu and his team approached Sreenivasan for acquisition of copyright, he consulted with me. We agreed to go ahead with all their requests because they were adamant Rajinikanth would be cast in the film. However, we made sure to include a clause that said 'Kuselan' cannot be dubbed in any other language'. Priyadarshan also added that 'Billoo Barber' would be very different from 'Kuselan'. 'Only the ending of both the movies would be the same. I have always maintained that Irfan Khan would be the main character of the film and not Shahrukh Khan'. 'Rajinikanth is introduced in the film riding a winged horse. My portrayal of the 'superstar' character would be more on a realistic approach. It will be very different from 'Kuselan' said an assertive Priyadarshan. With Priyadarshan's statement, all speculation as to 'Kuselan' spoiling Shahrukh Khan's dreams can be laid to rest once and for all. |

Kuselan Storms UK Box Office
August 06, 2008 Although received with mixed response in the home turf, looks like Rajini’s Kuselan is steadily scaling the international charts with soaring returns. Unconfirmed trade sources reveal that Kuselan has collected just more than £100,000 in the first week of its release at the UK box office. Besides, the movie was also placed in the 12th position during the first week of its release. With that Kuselan becomes the Third Tamil movie in a row to cross the £100,000 mark in the opening week in line with the Kamal starrer Dasavatharam and Sivaji. Trade analysts also affirm that initial word-of-mouth and reviews will have a telling impact on the movie’s performance. |

Box-Office: Kathanayakudu's dull start!
Aug 6, 2008 - 7:10:05 AM Rajnikant’s much-hyped bilingual Kathanayakudu has failed to make an impact at the box-office as Shivaji did last year. Rajnikant’s was only guest role in the Kathanayakudu but it was marketed as ‘Rajni's film’. There is hardly any frenzy and hungama at the theatres of Kathanayakudu whereas Shivaji had witnessed 'houseful' boards at most of the centres for weeks. Trade hopes that Kathanayakudu might pick up in the later weeks as P Vasu's Chandramukhi did few years ago. Chandramukhi was considered flop in the first week but it went on to become big hit after three weeks. Producer Ashwini Dutt believes that Kathanayakudu will pick up in later weeks. But analysts feels it might end up just an average grocer. http://www.telugucinema.com/c/publish/news/kathanayakudu_august0608.php |

He cannot make a film run without his usual gimmicks- Punchline, clean comedy, subtle romance, sentiments and above all he needs a villain to fight him. These elements were missing in Kuselan * S.P Balasubramaniyam used to sing the superstar's introduction song which has a message that goes with his image. Who can forget SPB- Rajini magic songs, En Peru Padayappa… (Padayappa),Oruvan Oruvaan …(Muthu) , Bellellakka, Bellellakka… (Sivaji), Devuda, Devuda… (Chandramukhi)? In Kuselan the Cinema, Cinema… introductory number was sung by Shankar Mahadevan. Last time when he sung for Rajini Dippu, Dippu… in Baba, everybody knows what happened! * The superstar does not require the glamour of Nayanthara and the crass and crude comedy of Vadivel to sell his films. The big mistake the director made was to include these scenes in the film. http://sify.com/movies/tamil/fullstory.php?id=14736612 |

Rajni Kanth To Give Back His Remuneration?
That is the latest buzz making rounds both in the Telugu and Tamil industries. Apparently, superstar Rajinikanth is one star who is known for his nature of returning his share of money to the makers and distributors if his movie turns out to be a failure and we have seen that happening with his much acclaimed 'Baba'. Now, it looks like history is being repeated as his latest venture 'Kuselan' failed to meet the expectations and there is a talk that he is planning to give back his remuneration to producers. Reports say that the Superstar had taken around Rs 25 crores which is around one-third of his regular fee for the film and the producers Pyramid Saimira are reporting an estimated loss of around Rs 20 crores. It will take some more time to come out with the actual figures and then maybe Rajini will come with his measures to ensure that a win-win situation occurs and nobody gets affected. Failure apart, this comes across as a truly commendable move and Rajini might have flipped on the screen but off screen he is still the ruling king of hearts. |

Meena also recalled that some emotional scenes in which she performed well were not finally used. “Pasupathy and I had three children in the film - two girls and a boy. In this particular scene, the boy (who is dark-skinned like his father) asks me why he is dark. It was a touching scene and came out very well... everyone on the sets applauded it. I was surprised that it was not used in the final version that made it to the theatres,” she added. |

Quote: |
The film also gives insight into two main facets of filmmaking that no one can ever change – no matter what.
* The story has to be the 'superstar' of the film and actors will have to strengthen it (even if the actor is Rajinikanth). * There is no such thing as a sure-shot filmmaker until and unless the basics of storytelling are adhered to with loads of creativity and hard work. 'Kuselan' sure has been successful in making many think along these lines. Probably it's time. |

Welcome back cm123,
Good to know that its doing good in kumbakONam. Which theater? Vijaya or Kasi? And its doing great in thanjai as well (Vijaya AND Arul). Doing great in mayilAduthuRai as well, though not released in ratna. That belt (Trichy-Mayilai) is Rajini's forte, always ![]() Btw, sangam is going to reduce the shows to just TWO from Monday. |

Insider info (From a friend of mine, who is a friend of soundarya)
1. Rajini did not like the way the movie was marketed right from day 1. As we may all know from the moment he completes shooting till the movie releases, Rajini will be restless. He was going crazy this time it seems. Now since the movie is not going well, he is mad at vaachu. And he saw the complete movie only days before the release it seems. 2. Rajini got his salary only from seven arts, not a single rupee from KB. The amount is not known. |

hmmm - I have a question - maybe experienced guys can explain
Why should an actor (be it Rajini or anyone else) shoulder the burden for a movies failure or poor run ? from what little I understand the producers/distributors make tons of money all the time getting involved in one movie or the other - whereas an actor/star relies solely on his/her crowd-pulling capacity - in fact, its this crowd-pulling capacity of the stars/actors thats helping the producers/distributors make tons of money - compared to that, what the stars/actors get isnt that a pittance ?? |

but, on the fans letter, they mainly complain on 1. rajni's instability on words - they dont insult but they chide him 2. they indirectly speak about his money, their angry on coming down to karnata, be it apology, or varutham or anything 3. they hit the businessman rajini but i too disagree why they worry where rajni invests his money. thats an already collected money. |

Atleast this time ,let him speak clearly without giving room to speculate.

Guys,
the bottom line is, some section of people are always trying to project rajini as a pro kannadiga or against tamil whenever they get chance. For them, Cauvery and Hogkenkkal is the prime time to do that. I am just comparing a situation of MGR who was porjected as malayali by some section of people during 70s and 80s. One of the Chennai DIG was malayali and he used to talk MGR in malayalam. some people had created as a issue at the time. He tried his level best to show his solidarity to tamil people. Another point is in 70 and 80's media did not grow like now and Cauvery issue is much bigger than mullai periyar issue. As i said earlier, in ramyanm, sita was in situation only one time to prove her purity. here rajini had been tested through out his life. |
