‘Endhiran/Robo/Robot -Rajinikanth – Aishwarya Rai Bachchan fever is still on !
Rajinikanth starrer ‘Endhiran’ still goes strong at box office More than three weeks have gone by and the ‘Endhiran’ fever has still not cooled down in the country. What’s more, the box office collections for the Rajinikanth – Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer continue to increase while other Bollywood films come and go without making its mark. Touted as the most expensive film ever made in India, ‘Endhiran’ has more than made up for its producer, the film has had a record breaking opening, and is still doing great business at the box office.
And today, ‘Endhiran or ‘Robot’ has broken all previous records achieved by any Bollywood film in the past. ‘Robot’ stands tall as the highest grosser of all times.
Movie critics in Bollywood are surprised by the fact that Rajinikanth could endanger the position held by the Khans in the Hindi film industry, but keeping in mind the total collections that ‘Endhiran’ has made from the past three weeks, they cannot predict as to where the ‘Endhiran’ is going to stop.

And on the poll, though 'No' sounds negative its not negative at all. He has always been there even in the past 20 years, but only in flashes. Enthiran did bring him out on almost all the scenes..

Chitti, the robot, delights tax officials
Enthiran (Robot), the recent blockbuster from the Rajni-Shankar combine, has brought an unexpected windfall for the state commercial tax department. Touted as the country’s first serious and most successful sci-fi film, Enthiran, so far, has brought in a revenue of Rs 2.5 crore for the department, from Bangalore city alone. The revenue would be much higher if one takes the whole state into account.
The good news for the department is that the revenue flow is still continuing. “During the first week of the films release, we received a revenue of Rs.1.67 crore as entertainment tax,” Zaibunnissa, joint commissioner (minor acts) department of commercial taxes, told Bangalore Mirror.
The Rajni-Ash super thriller was released in all the three languages in Karnataka. However, it’s learnt that it was the Tamil version which saw film-goers gate-crashing the theaters.
“In Bangalore, the film was released in 27 theatres, including multiplexes. During the second week, our revenue from the film stood at Rs 81 lakh,” Zaibunnissa said.
Enthiran was made at a cost of Rs 162 crore while the production of 177 Kannada films in 2009 totalled Rs 350 crore. Despite this, Enthiran has surpassed Kannada films in terms of collections, within a short span of two weeks.
Produced by Sun Pictures Kalanidhi Maran, the trilingual film released on Oct 1 with 2,250 prints had hit 2,000 screens globally, including 300 screens abroad.
In Bangalore and Mysore, tickets for the film sold at between Rs 750 and Rs 1500 in the first week.
Zaibunnissa, however, denied the allegation that theatre owners had taken the commercial tax department for a ride by keeping it in the dark about the inflated rates.
“They had informed us about the inflated ticket prices. We said it was fine, so long as they paid us 30 per cent entertainment tax on every ticket sold plus a show tax of Rs 118 per show. That’s one reason why we received this kind of revenue from Enthiran,” she said.
Rajinikanth’s success story in Karnataka began with Basha and Padayappa.
Padayappa’s distribution rights had cost Rs 85 lakh, while Enthiran’s rights cost a whopping Rs 9.5 crore. Despite the cost factor, many feel, that Rajni today is the best and safest bet in the market

To clarify certain things, Kaleja released(and flopped) after one week of Endhiran release... after two week Brindhavanam released and flopped... almost all theatres have removed both brindhavanam and kaleja, but Robo is still running successfully.
21/10/2010 collection
Brindavanam 42098(House Full) 42098(House Full) 42098(House Full) 42098(House Full)

Robo(Odeon) 18760 34491 36847(House Full) 27895
22/10/2010 collection
Brindavanam 42098(House Full) 42098(House Full) Collections Will Be Updated Shortly Collections Will Be Updated Shortly
Robo(Odeon) 18816 28737 Collections Will Be Updated Shortly Collections Will Be Updated Shortly

In Hyderabad ROBO's collection is drastically reduced especially in shanthi theatre which is in main area.

The metallic look!
Superstar Rajinikanth is popular for undergoing a tremendous metamorphosis in terms of dressing and style for his films. For his film Enthiran (Robot) Rajini sports a ‘futuristic’ look! The look has been kept under wraps but an onlooker revealed, “Rajini sir sports a bizarre look in the film” We got in touch with hair-stylist Aalim who has styled Rajini. He said, “Rajinikanth’s outfits have been designed by Manish Malhotra.
A lot of copper is being used in it. The hairdo that I’ve created compliments the outfits. I’ve given him a very cutting edge look comprising stylish side locks and metallic hair extensions.” Aalim further added, “Rajini sir is very cool and despite being worshipped, he is extremely down-to-earth and humble. If I were to rate the most stylish men in films, Rajini sir would top the list and Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan would come next.”

Thanks Honest. All the other lines are your opinions and I am the respect. Even this line is your opinion but I don't respect. After Basha and Padayappa this is the only film to which there have been overwhelmingly positive reviews from everywhere including non Rajini fans. Even the most HC Kamal fans I know have given at least an OK review. So its not just Rajini fans, in my opinion. Originally Posted by HonestRaj

Chitti, the robot, delights tax officials
The Rajni-Ash sci-fi blockbuster, Enthiran, has fetched Rs 2.5 cr revenue for the commercial tax department till now
by Mr T S Sreenivasa Raghavan
Enthiran (Robot), the recent blockbuster from the Rajni-Shankar combine, has brought an unexpected windfall for the state commercial tax department. Touted as the country’s first serious and most successful sci-fi film, Enthiran, so far, has brought in a revenue of Rs 2.48 crore for the department, from Bangalore city alone. The revenue would be much higher if one takes the whole state into account.
The good news for the department is that the revenue flow is still continuing, although at a slower pace. “During the first week of the films release, we received a revenue of Rs.1.67 crore as entertainment tax,” Zaibunnissa, joint commissioner (minor acts) department of commercial taxes, told Bangalore Mirror.
The Rajni-Ash super thriller was released in all the three languages in Karnataka. However, it’s learnt that it was the Tamil version which saw film-goers gate-crashing the theaters.
“In Bangalore, the film was released in 27 theatres, including multiplexes. During the second week, our revenue from the film stood at Rs 81 lakh,” Zaibunnissa said.
Enthiran was made at a cost of Rs 162 crore while the production of 177 Kannada films in 2009 totalled Rs 350 crore. Despite this, Enthiran has surpassed Kannada films in terms of collections, within a short span of two weeks.
Produced by Sun Pictures Kalanidhi Maran, the trilingual film released on Oct 1 with 2,250 prints had hit 2,000 screens globally, including 300 screens abroad.
In Bangalore and Mysore, tickets for the film sold at between Rs 750 and Rs 1500 in the first week.
Zaibunnissa, however, denied the allegation that theatre owners had taken the commercial tax department for a ride by keeping it in the dark about the inflated rates.
“They had informed us about the inflated ticket prices. We said it was fine, so long as they paid us 30 per cent entertainment tax on every ticket sold plus a show tax of Rs 118 per show. That’s one reason why we received this kind of revenue from Enthiran,” she said.
Rajinikanth’s success story in Karnataka began with Basha and Padayappa.
Padayappa’s distribution rights had cost Rs 85 lakh, while Enthiran’s rights cost a whopping Rs 9.5 crore. Despite the cost factor, many feel, that Rajni today is the best and safest bet in the market.

Visitors Column from Behindwoods....
Every cine site in India is posting something about this movie. I didn’t want to be one among those thousands of viewers/critics to write about it. But i couldn't resist posting some thing about this movie.
Rajini as Chitti (Version 1 Robo) has impressed me a lot than the professor or Robo (Version 2) . A lot of kids seems to be loving this character. I liked chitti to an extend that I started hating the Professor Rajini for sometime. In the process of pulling Aishwarya out of Chitti, Professor was too rude. I was able to understand the frustration/anger that Professor had, though. But sorry professor, I didn’t enjoy Kilimanjaro Song as it was right after you broke Chitti into pieces.
I think in the last 15 years, this is the one movie where Rajini didn’t have a boasting introduction. It was very normal, they just showed a common man working sincerely, tightening the screw for a robot. A large no of hard core fans may not have been able to whistle/scream or shower flowers. Introduction of Chitti was nice. Like a child, struggling to walk initially, walking normally, then walking stylishly. Even on the second week, family audiences were screaming when Chitti started to walk.
The first half was very interesting. A breezy romantic song, introduction of Chitti, funny/interesting dramas with Citti when he starts
moving with common world, Chitti starting to understand/have human feelings-Love/affection/anger/possessiveness. I liked everything in the first half, even the dialogues were well written. The movie started at 2:30, when the interval was announced, it was 4.00. The time just flew without my knowledge.
The second half was little lengthy with no of songs, but eventually it is equalized by the mind blowing Climax sequences.
I feel, literally every thing are good in this movie. A good story, interesting screenplay, dialogues, acting, songs, BG music, amazing CG/Animation works. One can see the efforts they put in all these departments.
I didn’t like their previous movie Sivaji much. I felt it’s wasn’t a proper Rajini movie or Shankar movie. They could have done a lot better than what they did in Sivaji.
But I totally enjoyed Endhiran. I think they have properly utilized Rajni’s mass power, Shankar/Sujatha’s creativity and Sun pictures money/marketing power to give a world class movie. It’s no myth that the movie has pulled in 300Crs in 3 weeks.
Rajini has worked hard and excelled in three different characters. Scientiest, Chitti V1, Chitti V2. He has come out of his star images to fit into the characters well.
I liked few quotes mentioned in an article came in The Hindu.
In the last scene of the movie, In the year 2035, the Robot would be kept in a museum, the school teacher would explain the students “This is the most intelligent human android Robot created so far. But they decided to dismantle it completely”. A school girl would ask “why?”. Suddenly the Robot would respond “ Because I started thinking”. And synonymously, the Rajini has come out of his image and volunteered himself to good stories, “Because the audience have started thinking”.
This would be a benchmark movie, setting new standards for Indian movie.
So far, I have watched it twice. I don’t think I will say no, even if someone asks me again. So, Are you coming with me?

ENDHIRAN VFX SUPERVISOR SRINIVAS INTERVIEW
http://www.videos.behindwoods.com/vi...vas-mohan.html
I am the Visual Effects supervisor in Endhiran. In December 2007, director Shankar narrated me the entire story of Endhiran. I was very excited as the story and the concept were very new, fresh and wildly imaginative. I was also anxious as such a script has not been executed not only in south India but in entire India as well. I was concerned as to how I would translate his idea visually and it was a challenging job. I suggested to Shankar to incorporate certain steps which are not being followed in our Indian industry, the first thing being pre-visualization or previz. Shankar also understood its importance and agreed to it. A lot of pre-production was needed before we went out for shooting especially when visual effects formed 90% work in Endhiran.
A major plus point for me in Endhiran is Shankar’s clarity on what he wanted. This helped us move forward smoothly.
We did a small test with the train sequence in which Rajini jumps, walks and showed it to him. This was one of the first tests on previz. And Shankar was very happy.
Out of 60 scenes, we have done previz for 40 scenes. After this my job was to divide the entire shot i.e. VFx breaker. In the sequences where the scientist interacts with the robot and in the robot dance, there are many layers in one single frame. The first one was Vasee layer in which we shot Vaseegaran in the green screen, next was the Chitti layer i.e. the dancing robot. This was created in CG. We had to use live puppets for some of the close-ups which are called animatronics.
After the VFx break down, my role was to find out the best talent available. I executed 60-70% of the work in India and for others I went overseas. Based on the VFx breaker, we went to LA and chose Stanwinston studios. We also visited ILM, Tippet studios and Café Fx in Hollywood and when we showed our previz work, they were all awed by our international concepts. After hunting and finalizing the best talents, execution of work began. Till the project got completed, I had to constantly interact with cinematographer, editor, art director, director, artists for various requirements. Everyone helped and it was a team work. If for others, it was a two year project, then it was a three year project for me, director, cinematographer and the editor as one year was involved in pre-production.
Endhiran climax
Climax was the most exciting and interesting part of Endhiran. Although other sequences had blended CG, the climax was more challenging. Everything was created and nothing was live except for the background. The ball formation, the snake, drill, catching the helicopter and even the helicopter was CG. While shooting the scene, imagination of the highest order was required to gauge the position of various objects on screen. It was a tightrope walking as a little slip on any side will mar the sequence as such. We could have gone for realistic side but that would have cost us huge amounts. I took two supervisor’s help for this bit of work from Hong Kong. Frankie Chan who helped me to a great extent in climax and Eddie aided me in the fight sequence. Climax was very challenging and everybody worked hard and we are happy that it is being appreciated.
Director Shankar
Shankar is a Guru for visual effects. Right from the beginning of his career, he has always included some components of visual effects in every film of his. Gentleman, Kaadhalan, Indian, Boys and Anniyan had different levels of special effects thrown in. In Sivaji, we had the white skin grafting which has reached international levels. When I went to Hollywood to discuss with the technicians for Endhiran, they were already aware of our work in Sivaji which spared me from the formalities of introductions. It was a brilliant concept and has reached well. Shankar is a rarity not only in the Indian context but also in Hollywood scene. He is a multitalented person. Shankar is an excellent creator and a great executor. He is very clear about what he wants. Working in Hollywood is much easier than working here because there you don’t need to play multiple roles. However here, the director is a one man army as he needs to take care of many things in addition to creativity. Shankar excels in this.
Rajinikanth
Rajini is the ultimate super star for all age groups. I can cite a small instance. When we were in US in connection with the special effects, we took Rajni to an Indian restaurant in California along with some Hollywood technicians who had worked in Jurassic Park and such films. Since we knew his popularity, we had chosen a hotel in a not so populous place. However an Indian couple who had come to eat there was so happy seeing him that they came and said that their child will eat only if Rajini’s songs are played on TV. We were quite used to such things but the Hollywood crew was completely taken aback. That is the reach of Rajini sir and his charisma.
I can quote another incident during the shoot to reiterate his punctuality and professionalism. For a particular scene, it was required of him to sit in a covered box with lot of machinery with just face alone outside. For a person of his caliber, he could have taken breaks and done the shot. But he was very patient, sat in the box for almost 4 hours. And when the scene got delayed too, he did not flinch and got out only after completing it. That is super star.
Interacting with Anthony, Randy & Sabu Cyril
As you all know, Endhiran was the combination of many talents. Everybody worked very hard from the beginning to end. Since previz was very strong in Endhiran, each one of us knew the work of other and had good clarity. There was clear communication between the team members.
Sabu Cyril is a Gyani
Randy is the best visual effects person. Nobody will notice that Rajini and Chitti are being played by the same person. The shots are perfectly blended and people cannot make out the differences. That’s our success. For Randy, it was doubly challenging as he has to shoot the same sequence twice, one with Vaseegaran and the other with Chitti. He has to light twice, mark in the floor about the lighting conditions, placement of character etc. Sometimes, the sequence will go to the next day also in which case he has to match the lighting, go through the process again. It was very tough but Randy pulled it off. His report which ran to 1500 pages has helped us to create the CGI perfectly. Randy is definitely an asset.
Sabu Cyril is a Gyani. He is a repository of knowledge and one can learn so much from him. He helped us in designing the robot and its movements too.
Normally editors will be there when the film commences and come in after the shoot gets over. However it was not the case with Endhiran, and Anthony was involved for three years like us. Anthony’s vision was the major advantage for Endhiran and as this matched with that of the director’s, it helped majorly in the final output especially in the climax. In this scene, there will not be anything as everything was created. But Anthony has to edit using his imagination as regards to the duration of movement. The team of me, Shankar and Anthony had lengthy discussions and after I completed the 3D work, we would again have talks and there would be changes and things like that. As Endhiran is not a routine film, it required a different kind of approach. We all worked in sync and our efforts have played dividends.

What do you think Endhiran has done to animation industry in India overall?
When the concept was narrated to me, I envisaged that Endhiran is going to bridge the gap between Hollywood and Indian visual effects industry and it has come true. Endhiran is going to be the bench mark for all future generation. The future projects have to work much harder to reach this mark in Vfx department. I have also brought in here animatronics and doom light technology as allied components of Vfx.
Under doom light technology, Rajini sir was scanned under high resolution 3D light in which his face is lighted under different conditions and facial texture details were taken. The face is not false, it is true and these details were incorporated into the computer and this is what helped us in the film. These images have been utilized in the climax scene and wherever it was impossible to use Rajini sir.
Challenges faced by the animation industry in India
Budget is the major challenging factor in India. We have the talent and the knowhow but budget is the limitation. In Endhiran we got the required budget and we utilized it effectively. To complete the entire film in 160 crores on par with Hollywood standard was indeed difficult. When you take films like Mummy, the budget was more than 1000 crores and when I have to work much lesser than that but with good standards, it sure is difficult.
Another challenge is the clarity factor with the director. The directors here are not well equipped to do such projects and don’t believe in the long pre-production period. But with Endhiran, things have changed and a revolution of sorts has happened now. Directors now have realized the value of pre-production work and fixing of everything before they go for the shoots. In future you will see a lot of Endhiran kind of films in low budgets.
Any current projects?
No, I am in a relaxed mode now and have not accepted any project. I want to educate the directors, cameramen and other crew members and then take on the right kind of projects.
Advice to aspiring animators
This is one of the interesting and upcoming fields. There was a time when parents wanted their children to be engineers or doctors but now they want them to be animators. This industry pays well too, but it is not the money that matters. It is the passion that counts and hobbies are coming to light.

Good review HR. A word about Sujatha. I've also seen the movie only once. I felt (or rather assure) by the dialaak siganture that 90% of the first half dialaaks should have been written by Sujatha. Chitti v1.0 (which is all this movie is all about) deliveres some of the finest (precise) lines that makes that charatcer being well written with clarity. Vintage Sujatha signature. However, on the second half (I'm sure it must have been either Karki or Shankar) - there were at least couple of dialaaks uttered by Dr. Vasi and Prof. Bhora that doesn't befit their image as scientist/researchers. Sujatha oda full wrting-uhh irundha output innum nalla vandhirrukkum. Originally Posted by HonestRaj
And I competely agree with Nerd that this is not stritly a "Rajini fanboy" flick. I didn't like "Sivaji" at all and to me it is easily the worst Sangar pilim till date (with Jeans Prashanth not withstanding). I didn't even like "Baasha" that much except for the spicy Rajini/Raghuvaran clash scenes - where we saw a villain (Raghuvaran) who was equal to the task of a hero. But with "Endhiran", even the neetral fans will like the movie as much as Rajini HC's, I think.

I respect the choice and taste of people,
I liked Shivaji very much that I saw it 5 times within 48 hours of release. Our family had to buy a second blue ray disc as the first one wasn't working anymore. we are watching the movie like twice a month and it just refreshes our energy level every time. Nadi...narambil ellam oru meisillarka veikum putthunarchi......(I get a similar feel for Tenali though it is not of the same genre)
I liked Sivaji , every frame of it... Kurai Ondrum Illai.....(inclusive of the deleted scenes that were telicasted in Kalaignar Tv)

But why hasn't he given any credit to Sujatha in the movie? It should have been like this in memory of our dear friend Sujatha who is no longer with us. Originally Posted by Movie Cop

Chitti v1.0 (which is all this movie is all about) deliveres some of the finest (precise) lines that makes that charatcer being well written with clarity. Vintage Sujatha signature. However, on the second half (I'm sure it must have been either Karki or Shankar) - there were at least couple of dialaaks uttered by Dr. Vasi and Prof. Bhora that doesn't befit their image as scientist/researchers. Sujatha oda full wrting-uhh irundha output innum nalla vandhirrukkum. Originally Posted by HonestRaj

I didn't like "Sivaji" at all and to me it is easily the worst Sangar pilim till date (with Jeans Prashanth not withstanding). I didn't even like "Baasha" that much except for the spicy Rajini/Raghuvaran clash scenes - where we saw a villain (Raghuvaran) who was equal to the task of a hero. But with "Endhiran", even the neetral fans will like the movie as much as Rajini HC's, I think.

So, if you calculate the profit (subtract budget from the collection), can enthiran beat 3-idiots?

It is good to know that it has broken all records. But at the same for me most pleasing thing is it made so much profit that the distribuor recovered all kuselan losses and top of that made more than profit what they made on Sivaji. Distributors should never complain distributing rajini movies.

3d is just a rumour i think like someone said. One thing they really need to do is cut down some dragging scenes to make this movie more crisp... I'm sure that will happen in the original ayngaran dvd. A lot of the complains I hear from the women especially are that the second half was dragging. My mom felt first half was ok but she didn't enjoy the second half.

I am hoping that Sun Picture would dub the movie in English and release it so much potential this movie has that Sun Pic can rake in ....... that saying I found it, that first half of the movie was a roller coaster .... second half ... I have no idea why Shankar sir did not think about it ... the speed breaker comes in the form of (mosquito scene + garbage dump + scene with Kalabamani ) ...

கர்நாடக அரசுக்கு ரூ 3.38 கோடி வருவாய் தந்த எந்திரன்!
http://thatstamil.oneindia.in/movies...aka-state.html
கர்நாடக மாநில சரித்திரித்தில் இதுவரை எந்தப் படம் மூலமும் கிடைக்காத கேளிக்கை வரி இது என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. இதற்கு முன் ரஜினியின் சிவாஜி க்கு மட்டுமே ரூ 1.3 கோடி வரியாகக் கிடைத்தது.
எந்திரன் படம் பெங்களூர் நகரில் மட்டும் 30 திரையரங்குகளில் திரையிடப்பட்டது. புறநகர்களிலும் சேர்த்து 58 திரையரங்குகள். இவை தவிர மைசூர், மாண்டியா உள்ளிட்ட பகுதிகளிலும் இந்தப் படம் வெளியானது. அனைத்து இடங்களிலும் பெரும் வரவேற்பு கிடைத்தது.
பெங்களூரில் எந்திரனுக்கு கட்டணமாக ரூ 750 முதல் 1500 வரை கவுன்டர்களிலேயே விற்கப்பட்டது.
இதுகுறித்து கர்நாடக மாநில வணிக வரித்துறை இணை ஆணையர் ஜைபுன்னிசா கூறுகையில், "டிக்கெட் கட்டணத்தை அதிகமாக வைத்து விற்றதால் வணிக வரித்துறை பெங்களூர் தியேட்டர்களை சோதனையிட்டதாகக் கூறப்பட்டதில் உண்மையில்லை. வேறு வழக்கமான சோதனைகளுக்காகவே சில திரையரங்குகளுக்கு அதிகாரிகள் சென்றார்கள்.
எந்திரன் படத்தைப் பொறுத்தவரை, கர்நாடக அரசுக்கு நல்ல வருவாயைத் தந்துள்ளது. இந்தப் படம் ரிலீஸான முதல்வாரம் மட்டும் பெங்களூர் திரையரங்குகள் மூலம் ரூ 1.67 கோடி கேளிக்கை வரி கிடைத்தது. இரண்டாவது வாரம் இது ரூ 81 லட்சம். உண்மையில் தியேட்டர்களில் அதிக கட்டணம் வைத்து விற்பதை அரசே அனுமதித்தது. இதன் மூலம் ஒரு டிக்கெட்டுக்கு ரூ 118 வரை கேளிக்கை வரியாகக் கிடைத்துள்ளது.
கர்நாடகத்தின் பிற பகுதிகளில் இந்தப் படம் மூலம் ரூ 90 லட்சம் வரை வரை அரசுக்கு வருவாய் கிடைத்துள்ளது. இது இதுவரை வேறு எந்தப் படம் மூலமும் கிடைக்காதது", என்றார்.
இதற்கு முன் ரஜினியின் சிவாஜி படம் மூலம் ரூ 1.3 கோடி வரை அரசுக்கு கேளிக்கை வரியாகக் கிடைத்ததாக ஜைபுன்னிசா கூறினார்.
எந்திரன் பட கர்நாடக வெளியீட்டு உரிமை ரூ 9.5 கோடிக்கு விற்கப்பட்டது. இந்தத் தொகையை முதல் வாரத்திலேயே அந்த விநியோகஸ்தர் எடுத்துவிட்டார் என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.

"ENTHIRAN - MOONDU MUGAM VERSION 2.0"
http://www.behindwoods.com/features/...-22-10-10.html
Enthiran is making many waves across the film industry. Superstar Rajinikanth has displayed a stupendous performance in the three characters (though there are only two roles – the scientist and the robot) viz. (1) Dr.Vaseegaram - a low profile and gentle scientist, (2) Chitti – a humanoid autonomous robot which obeys the orders of his creator and (3) Chitti version-2 – a deadly humanoid autonomous robot with ability to think and want. All the three characters have been done by the superstar in a phenomenally different ways and biggies like K.Balachander are extending their complements to both Rajini and Shankar. Even K.Balachander has gone to the extent of saying that “I have introduced Rajini as a bad man. You (Shankar) have made him worse. But, wonderfully worse”.
There has been many discussions and debate about the movie from different perspectives. This article is from a different perspective of comparing Enthiran (EN) with one of the blockbuster movies of superstar in 1980s – Sathya Movies “Moondru Mugam” (MM). The basic reason for this comparison is that after the first triple role in Moondru Mugam (1982), only in Enthiran superstar has done triple characters, which is after a period of 28 years
The film “Moondru Mugam” was a phenomenon. Even today, this movie has a lot of attraction among the masses, especially from Rajini’s fans. The reason for this is the three different roles performed by Rajini, viz. (1) Arun - a US educated young entrepreneur, (2) Alex Pandian – a straightforward, dynamic and hardcore DSP and (3) John – a mischievous and funny youth.
It is reiterated that the comparison is not based on the story or the screenplay as such. The comparison is only based on the three different roles performed by the superstar in the two movies and their placement and performance in the respective screenplays.
Comparisons:
1) Both MM and EN begins very casually. MM begins narrating how a young man who returned from US surprisingly as a sannyasi, is converted to normal life style. It takes about 25 to 30 minutes in the first half of the movie, before a sudden twist turns the screenplay unexpectedly and the pace of the movie jumps at jet’s speed with fire cracking dialogues and actions on the arrival of Alex Pandian into the movie.
EN also begins on a usual and unconventional way with Dr.Vaseegaran in the process of creating a humanoid robot and putting it on practical experiment for a while, which extends upto 25 to 30 minutes. The screenplay gets momentum and seriousness inconspicuously with Chitti being rejected by the AIRD Chief on some pretext.
Thus, the first 25 to 30 minutes both in MM and EN are revolving around the first character viz. Arun in MM and Dr.Vaseegaran in EN.
2) The 2nd role in MM is the grand role – Alex Pandian, whose introduction was received with huge accolades. for about 30 to 35 minutes he is in the movie, it is full of fireworks – both in words and deeds – i.e. firebrand dialogues and fighting sequences with the villain Ekambaram, by whom he gets killed. As DSP, his walking, talking, beating, staring, fighting, everything was in unique style. His appearance was very attractive with curling hair, buffed cheek and sharp looking in Police uniform, wearing round black spectacles.
In EN, Chitti Version 2.0 (the villainy robot) claims this credit. Right from his introduction (especially the background music during the introduction) almost upto the end of the movie, he rules the rust. His handling of the hero, Dr.Vaseekaran in the marriage hall and while searching for the “black sheep”, are simply unimaginable and terrifying. In short, it is something similar to watching Alex Pandian in a negative role.
3) The 3rd role in MM is of John – a mischievous youth who finally falls prey to the villain Ekambaram @ Ambar. He is funny, playing spoilsport of the efforts of Arun to bring Ambar to books, by impersonation as Alex Pandian. At the climax, having understood that Alex Pandian is the father of John and Arun, John sacrifices his life fighting with Ambar and saves Arun, his brother.
In EN, the initial Chitti role is comparable one. Being innocent in the beginning, Chitti turns into slightly mischievous on getting “feelings” fed into the neural schema. Finally, it rescues Dr. Vasi from the wrath of Law and gets itself dismantled.
4) Both in MM and EN, the introduction of first character of Rajini is very casual and in a manner which is unconventional to Rajini fans.
5) In the end, the death of John in MM and dismantling of Chitti by itself in EN, brings wet in the eyes of many.
6) Co-incidentally, both MM and EN were released in the month of October. MM was released on 3rd October, 1982 and EN on 1st October, 2010.
7) Both in MM and EN, the comedy sequence has been predominantly carried on by the superstar himself, though some comedy actors were available (Thengai Srinivasan & Khaja Sheriff in MM and Santhanam and Karunas in EN).
After the above comparison one thing that comes to mind is that it is highly impossible to remake “Moondru Mugam” at present unlike other films. Only the superstar himself can do those three characters or even above those characters, which is evident by superstar’s phenomenal performance in Enthiran. The commitment and hard work exhibited in Enthiran by superstar at the age of 62 is exemplary to the young artists of today.

AND THE CREDIT GOES TO....
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-20-10-10.html
Endhiran, which was released a fortnight before has brought life to an age-old debate. No! We are not going to discuss about Endhiran. The debate is actually on a larger perspective. A scale which is larger than that of Endhiran's! What is it that actually makes a movie work? We all know that the making of a movie is no less than weaving a magic spell on the audience. But it is also a collective effort, a combined effort of hundreds of individuals.
So who takes the larger share of the pie here? Everyone involved in the movie has the right to claim that the movie's success is theirs. The director, producer, cinematographer, musician, lyricist… everyone has an equal part to play in a movie. The phenomenal success of Endhiran has added a new dimension to the topic. Is a big-budget movie a recipe for success? Analysts will argue that a small budget movie like Kalavani was also a huge success. OK!
There have been so many instances in the past where big budget movies have fallen and small timers have tasted huge success. A very obvious example is that of Pasanga. A movie which featured school children and was targeted mostly at children was a huge success. It reaped rich harvests across the world with so many awards in International film festivals and four national
awards. So, are story and direction keys to success? In that case, movies like Anbe Sivam and Virumandi should never have been flops. Actor Vijay tasted huge success with a string of hits movies like Gilli, Sivakasi, Tirupachi and Pokkiri. So, is star value the focal point to the movies success? Think about Vijay's movies of the recent past and we can say it is not.
Music has played a very important role in Indian movies, Kollywood in particular. There have been movies in the past that have become hits only because of songs and romantic numbers. Is music instrumental in the movie's success? Well, directors of late have opted to choose scripts which take a detour from the normal. Kamal Hassan starrer Unnaipol Oruvan succeeded without a single romantic number. Same goes with other departments which have equal contribution in the making of movie. So what is it that makes a movie click?
If we take a look at this year's hit movies, we can possibly have an idea (not a conclusion) of what it takes to strike gold. We have star value in Sura, Singam and Asal, musical hits like Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya and Paiyaa, experiments like Ayirathil Oruvan and Raavanan, comedy in movies like Boss Engira Baskiran and one movie which had all, Endhiran. This has made the situation hazier than before. We can only infer that success of a movie is about street smart direction. The difference here is between having food at home and in a restaurant. It is about cooking the recipe with all the required ingredients.
Endhiran has only emphasized this very fact. It has the required star value, peppy songs, great locations, the required computer graphics and the right script which can make the audience think about the movie after leaving the movie hall. Such a budget was required because the script required it. We may again be proved wrong if a movie of such extravagance fails in the future. For now, the credit goes to ... the smarter brain!

Sun Pictures are going to premier songs from their Rajinikanth super hit Enthiran on Sun TV on Sunday (Oct 24) evening.
For the first time ever, the channel will start telecasting songs from the Shankar directed film, nearly 25 days after the films theatrical release! It is for the first time in India that the producer has not telecast the full song from his film, even after release.
The AR Rahman songs from the film are still topping the charts. Among the top 10 songs on Radio Mirchi (98.3 FM), 6 are from Enthiran ! Never before has all the songs from a single film been featured among the top 10.
It clearly indicates Rajini-ARR-Shankar power. Once the songs from the film are regularly shown on the Sun Network, the recall value for the film increases and also the possibility of repeat audiences.

Rajinikanth overseas market doubles from Sivaji’s
When a dubbed version of the Rajinikanth starrer Muthu (1995) became a surprise hit in Japan, it was little more than a quirky footnote in the career of the South Indian star. The performance of his latest film Endhiran is another matter entirely. Fans across the globe have been lining up at theatres, voting with their wallets several times over.
K Karunamoorthy, CEO, Ayngaran International, (a subsidiary of Eros International that specialises in taking Tamil and Telugu films overseas) believes, “The combination of Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai raised the expectation beyond imagination. The curiosity factor saw a lot of people come to the theatres.” This includes a surprisingly huge non-Tamil audience which opted to go for the Tamil Endhiran, because they were drawn in by the English subtitling. It has justified Endhiran’s ambitious global distribution strategy.
Singapore, a market with a sizable Tamil speaking population, saw the film hit 22 screens with 16 prints; a record for an Indian production. “Not even My Name Is Khan had such a wide release,” says Krishnamoorthy.
The film has already collected S$2.5 million. Figures from Eros International put the overseas collections at Rs 61 crore so far.
According to S Ramanathan, head of the Tamil Nadu Theatre Owner’s Association and a distributor on Sivaji, “Endhiran is doing as expected. It opened in as many theatres as possible to avoid piracy — when you can easily get a ticket, why go in for a pirated CD? That idea worked very well.” While Sivaji started off on 18 screens across Chennai, Endhiran began on 32. The almost 24-hour screening schedules lasted only through the first week.
However, the 8:30 early morning show continued to be a draw at both Ramanathan’s Abirami theatre complex and at the Sathyam multiplex chain in Chennai. The market was rife with rumours about theatres cranking up their prices to cash in on the craze for the film, but Ramanathan disagrees: “I don’t think any theatre raised ticket rates. Many charitable organisation bought tickets and gave it as a return for donations. It went to a good end somewhere.”
Previously, a film hitting a silver jubilee or managing to be on screens for over 100 days was a definitive measure of its success. But according to Ramanathan, “That’s no longer a view the filmmaker has. It’s more about the money that can be raised out of the film and not how long it runs. Has it made or crossed a box office collections record? That’s what’s important.”
However, he adds, “It will complete 100 days but in one or two theatres.” What’s worked for Endhiran is the fact that it is an unusual film in the Rajinikanth canon. ‘Rajini’ Dilli, the head of a rasigar mandram (or fan club) in Chennai has already seen the film 10 times.
He observes, “It’s not just the hardcore fans driving the success of this film. It’s a huge hit with the family audiences as well.” The record to beat though is Rajinikanth’s previous blockbuster, Sivaji which earned an estimated Rs 128 crore worldwide.
According to Karunamoorthy’s estimates Endhiran has made 2.5 times as much as Sivaji and is the highest grosser in Ayngaran’s 13-year history, through the course of which it has distributed approximately 600 Tamil and Telugu films in the overseas market.

A distant Aunt's review:
Overall the movie is good 4/5 rating. Definitely worth the 120 bugs that I paid @ Sathyam.
I always felt that there are a lot of excellent Tamil movie directors compared to Shankar. And this is the 1st Shankar movie that I liked which is worth the cost that is spent on the movie making.
I dont think I saw the Rajini anywhere in the movie...it was all the scentist n Robot. I wish Rajini takes up much more villain roles....he s damn good at it...excellent

Heard some news and misleading facts that Robo Telugu is not doing well in Hyderabad,AP and Khalega and Brindhavanam are knocking it down.
It is a small world, I had my uncle call Shanti Theatre in Hyd..... excluding morning shows on weekdays (90% occupancy) all other shows are running to Full capacity.
Robo Telugu is doing extremely well even in the 4th week as other films are falling like 9 pins. Having a success meet in the first week clearly shows the true accomplishment of these films against Robo.
Records Galore for Robo despite brickbats from some envied people.

http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-23-10-10.html
Sameera Reddy has been shooting for a Hindi film in London, which is being directed by Priyadarshan. But this did not stop the lady from participating in the 40th year celebrations of the Directors’ Council.
The lady took a few days off from her shooting schedule to fly back to Chennai and she will be seen performing for the Endhiran song in this grand event. Sameera, who is a huge fan of Rajinikanth and Endhiran, feels it is her way of paying tribute to the superstar.

Robot, Endhiran box office collection makes Bollywood look very small

Robot, Endhiran box office collection makes Bollywood look very small. Rajinikanth starrer is the biggest hit in the history of Indian cinema
Endhiran (Robot) starring former bus conductor Rajinikanth has turned out to be a blockbuster. In its third week of release the film has received an overwhelming response from movie goers. Till now the film has grossed Rs 300 crore and it is still going strong.
The out-and-out masala film that has also Bollywood statuesque Aishwarya has broken many previous records at the box office.
From day one the film was a huge success as hundreds of thousands of movie buffs flocked theatres to watch their most beloved star Rajniknath entertain them. They were so impressed by the movie that from day one in many places tickets were sold on black. Besides, most of the theatres went house full.
The success is nothing new for Rajnikanth who is known for his stellar performance in the state. Before the success of the movie his charm was only restricted to Tamil Nadu. He never tasted success in the Hindi movies that is in the north despite making many efforts.
However for the first time in his life he has become a pan-Indian star. His film has been well received in North India too.
Audiences here who are a bit choosy preferred Robot over other recent releases. It is another story that the film has grossed more money from the South. But in North too it has done well. This will only improve Rajnikanth’s stock in India.
At the moment it has become the biggest-ever grosser in the history of Indian cinema. This has been confirmed by trade analyst N.P. Yadav. He said that the first film to make something around Rs 150 crore was 3 Idiots of Aamir Khan. Then Dabangg made more money than 3 Idiots. Also it is going strong at the box office. But the Robot has taken a huge lead from Dabangg.
Yadav gives the credit to Rajnikanth for the film success. He said: “It is Rajinikanth’s charisma that works in his favour. Moreover it is an out-and-out masala film, with Aishwarya to add to the glamour quotient, the lavish locations and extravagant special effects.”

Trade Talk: Breathing Normal @ Box-office
The most awaited films of the season Robo, Mahesh Khaleja and Brindavanam brought oxygen to Tollywood. But the movie that swept the collections at box office is 'Robo' which is a dubbed film. 'Mahesh Khaleja' is also making better collections and going steady.
The other movie 'Brindavanam' is also doing well although there is no novelty in story line. The treatment of the movie and production values impresses many. This movie is giving energy to Dil Raju who suffered from successive flops from quite some time.
And freshly the movie 'Rakta Charitra' released and it's just part-1. The audience liked the emotion part in the movie which is based on historical facts. The feedback is fine but the commercial result of the movie has to be seen in another week.

தலைவரின் எந்திரன் இன்றைய நிலவரப்படி இந்தியாவின் நம்பர் ஒன்.
இது வரை பாலிவுட் தான் உலக அளவில் இந்தியாவின் அடையாளமாக பார்க்கப்பட்டது.
அந்த பிம்பத்தை தனது 'எந்திரன்' மூலம் தகர்த்து தூர எறிந்ததோடு மட்டும் நில்லாமல் - உலகளவில் தமிழின் ஆளுமையையும், தமிழர்களின் எழுச்சியையும் 'எந்திரன்' மூலம் நிரூபித்து - யாரும் நெருங்க முடியாத அளவிற்கு தினமும் ஒரு சாதனையை செய்து வருகிறான் எந்திரன் என்றால் அது மிகை அல்ல.
மூன்று வார முடிவில் 'எந்திரனின்' நிகர வசூல் முன்னூறு கோடி.. என்ன மூச்சு முட்டுகிறதா ?
இது வரை இந்திய சினிமா கண்டிராத வசூல் இது என்று நாம் சொல்ல வில்லை... வட இந்திய மீடியா ஒன்று விடாமல் இன்று இது தான் 'டாக் ஆப் தி மீடியா'.
வசூலில் சாதனை புரிந்த 3 idiots மற்றும் டாபெங் இரண்டையும் மூன்றே வாரத்தில் பின்னுக்கு தள்ளி புதிய சாதனையை நோக்கி வெற்றி நடை போட்டு வருகிறது எந்திரன்.
இனி இந்த சாதனையை தலைவரின் 'ஹரா' தான் முறியடிக்கும் என்று நம்புவோம். இது குறித்த வீடியோ கீழே உங்களுக்காக.

IIRC, that lady was a war widow, not specifically from Kargil. Sana's dad was the one who was killed in Kargil and hence they started a home for families who had lost somebody in War. Originally Posted by kalyan

the article traces menon's early memories of Rajni and runs up to the blockbuster success of Endhiran (menon was a film journalist and was around when Rajni made his debut). the story leads with the patented haa-haa laughter that Rajni had even when he was a struggler.
snippets :-
* Rajni gave his photographs to menon for publication in mal mags
* they used to meet each other at Woodlands, where Rajni's cigarette-flicks and all that 'style' used to amuse customers
* Rajni was hanging about the sets of AR when the entire media attention was on kamal and srividya (who, however, told menon that Rajni is the guy to watch out for)
* menon admits that he never thought Rajni would make it
* chance meetings during Rajni's stint as an 'extra'... some mention about a random constable role, don't know which film.
Rajni always had a mix of sagely poise and a go-getter attitude... Rajni was never in doubt of what he would become. he says irrespective of Endhiran's aesthetic merits, it's a film that calls for nothing less than an all-heart celebration. there's mention of the unparalleled box office success, including the film's smashing run in Kerala (first time in the history of cinema in the state, a film opened in five theatres in TVM).
good article by menon... balanced and honest.

Rajinikanth overseas market doubles from Sivaji’s - Economic Times
2010-Oct-23
When a dubbed version of the Rajinikanth starrer Muthu (1995) became a surprise hit in Japan, it was little more than a quirky footnote in the career of the South Indian star. The performance of his latest film Endhiran is another matter entirely. Fans across the globe have been lining up at theatres, voting with their wallets several times over.
K Karunamoorthy, CEO, Ayngaran International, (a subsidiary of Eros International that specialises in taking Tamil and Telugu films overseas) believes, “The combination of Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai raised the expectation beyond imagination. The curiosity factor saw a lot of people come to the theatres.” This includes a surprisingly huge non-Tamil audience which opted to go for the Tamil Endhiran, because they were drawn in by the English subtitling. It has justified Endhiran’s ambitious global distribution strategy.
Singapore, a market with a sizable Tamil speaking population, saw the film hit 22 screens with 16 prints; a record for an Indian production. “Not even My Name Is Khan had such a wide release,” says Krishnamoorthy.
The film has already collected S$2.5 million. Figures from Eros International put the overseas collections at Rs 61 crore so far.
According to S Ramanathan, head of the Tamil Nadu Theatre Owner’s Association and a distributor on Sivaji, “Endhiran is doing as expected. It opened in as many theatres as possible to avoid piracy — when you can easily get a ticket, why go in for a pirated CD? That idea worked very well.” While Sivaji started off on 18 screens across Chennai, Endhiran began on 32. The almost 24-hour screening schedules lasted only through the first week.
However, the 8:30 early morning show continued to be a draw at both Ramanathan’s Abirami theatre complex and at the Sathyam multiplex chain in Chennai. The market was rife with rumours about theatres cranking up their prices to cash in on the craze for the film, but Ramanathan disagrees: “I don’t think any theatre raised ticket rates. Many charitable organisation bought tickets and gave it as a return for donations. It went to a good end somewhere.”
Previously, a film hitting a silver jubilee or managing to be on screens for over 100 days was a definitive measure of its success. But according to Ramanathan, “That’s no longer a view the filmmaker has. It’s more about the money that can be raised out of the film and not how long it runs. Has it made or crossed a box office collections record? That’s what’s important.”
However, he adds, “It will complete 100 days but in one or two theatres.” What’s worked for Endhiran is the fact that it is an unusual film in the Rajinikanth canon. ‘Rajini’ Dilli, the head of a rasigar mandram (or fan club) in Chennai has already seen the film 10 times.
He observes, “It’s not just the hardcore fans driving the success of this film. It’s a huge hit with the family audiences as well.” The record to beat though is Rajinikanth’s previous blockbuster, Sivaji which earned an estimated Rs 128 crore worldwide.
According to Karunamoorthy’s estimates Endhiran has made 2.5 times as much as Sivaji and is the highest grosser in Ayngaran’s 13-year history, through the course of which it has distributed approximately 600 Tamil and Telugu films in the overseas market.
Ramanathan adds, “Shivaji was a different type of movie. You had a hero, a villain and the hero wins in the end. This is totally futuristic. It first began to dip since the ordinary layman — a farmer or a worker — could not understand computer technology. But slowly it started picking up. We can see which film does better only at the end of the whole journey. But at the current rate, Endhiran will collect more.”
It has been quite a ride for a film that started a decade ago when director Shankar first conceived of the script with Kamal Hassan in mind. The project was briefly associated with Sharukh Khan and finally in 2008, Ayngaran stepped in as producers.
Karunamoorthy says, “The financial crisis in the markets saw us take a back seat and in December that year, we sold the film to Sun.” At the time, 30% to 35% of the production, including shooting in Brazil, had been completed. Karunamoorthy concludes, “I am very happy that we could associate with this film and at least distribute it overseas.”

Chitti beats Chulbul Pandey and Rancho in just 3 weeks..
2010-Oct-23
தலைவரின் எந்திரன் இன்றைய நிலவரப்படி இந்தியாவின் நம்பர் ஒன்.
இது வரை பாலிவுட் தான் உலக அளவில் இந்தியாவின் அடையாளமாக பார்க்கப்பட்டது.
அந்த பிம்பத்தை தனது 'எந்திரன்' மூலம் தகர்த்து தூர எறிந்ததோடு மட்டும் நில்லாமல் - உலகளவில் தமிழின் ஆளுமையையும், தமிழர்களின் எழுச்சியையும் 'எந்திரன்' மூலம் நிரூபித்து - யாரும் நெருங்க முடியாத அளவிற்கு தினமும் ஒரு சாதனையை செய்து வருகிறான் எந்திரன் என்றால் அது மிகை அல்ல.
மூன்று வார முடிவில் 'எந்திரனின்' நிகர வசூல் முன்னூறு கோடி.. என்ன மூச்சு முட்டுகிறதா ?
இது வரை இந்திய சினிமா கண்டிராத வசூல் இது என்று நாம் சொல்ல வில்லை... வட இந்திய மீடியா ஒன்று விடாமல் இன்று இது தான் 'டாக் ஆப் தி மீடியா'.
வசூலில் சாதனை புரிந்த 3 idiots மற்றும் டாபெங் இரண்டையும் மூன்றே வாரத்தில் பின்னுக்கு தள்ளி புதிய சாதனையை நோக்கி வெற்றி நடை போட்டு வருகிறது எந்திரன்.
இனி இந்த சாதனையை தலைவரின் 'ஹரா' தான் முறியடிக்கும் என்று நம்புவோம். இது குறித்த வீடியோ கீழே உங்களுக்காக.

கர்நாடக அரசுக்கு ரூ 3.38 கோடிக்கு மேல் வருவாய் தந்த எந்திரன்!
2010-Oct-24
சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினியின் எந்திரன் படத்தை திரையிட்ட திரையரங்குகள் கேளிக்கை வரியாக மட்டும் ரூ 3.38 கோடிக்கு மேல் செலுத்தியுள்ளதாக கர்நாடக மாநில அரசு தெரிவித்துள்ளது.
கர்நாடக மாநில சரித்திரித்தில் இதுவரை எந்தப் படம் மூலமும் கிடைக்காத கேளிக்கை வரி இது என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.
இதற்கு முன் ரஜினியின் சிவாஜிக்கு மட்டுமே ரூ 1.3 கோடி வரியாகக் கிடைத்தது.
எந்திரன் படம் பெங்களூர் நகரில் மட்டும் 30 திரையரங்குகளில் திரையிடப்பட்டது. புறநகர்களிலும் சேர்த்து 58 திரையரங்குகள்.
இவை தவிர மைசூர், மாண்டியா உள்ளிட்ட பகுதிகளிலும் இந்தப் படம் வெளியானது. அனைத்து இடங்களிலும் பெரும் வரவேற்பு கிடைத்தது. பெங்களூரில் எந்திரனுக்கு கட்டணமாக ரூ. 750 முதல் 1500 வரை கவுன்டர்களிலேயே விற்கப்பட்டது.
இதுகுறித்து கர்நாடக மாநில வணிக வரித்துறை இணை ஆணையர் ஜைபுன்னிசா கூறுகையில் :
டிக்கெட் கட்டணத்தை அதிகமாக வைத்து விற்றதால் வணிக வரித்துறை பெங்களூர் தியேட்டர்களை சோதனையிட்டதாகக் கூறப்பட்டதில் உண்மையில்லை. வேறு வழக்கமான சோதனைகளுக்காகவே சில திரையரங்குகளுக்கு அதிகாரிகள் சென்றார்கள்.
எந்திரன் படத்தைப் பொறுத்தவரை, கர்நாடக அரசுக்கு நல்ல வருவாயைத் தந்துள்ளது. இந்தப் படம் ரிலீஸான முதல்வாரம் மட்டும் பெங்களூர் திரையரங்குகள் மூலம் ரூ. 1.67 கோடி கேளிக்கை வரி கிடைத்தது.
இரண்டாவது வாரம் இது ரூ.81 லட்சம். உண்மையில் தியேட்டர்களில் அதிக கட்டணம் வைத்து விற்பதை அரசே அனுமதித்தது. இதன் மூலம் ஒரு டிக்கெட்டுக்கு ரூ.118 வரை கேளிக்கை வரியாகக் கிடைத்துள்ளது.
கர்நாடகத்தின் பிற பகுதிகளில் இந்தப் படம் மூலம் ரூ.90 லட்சம் வரை வரை அரசுக்கு வருவாய் கிடைத்துள்ளது.
இது இதுவரை வேறு எந்தப் படம் மூலமும் கிடைக்காதது. இதற்கு முன் ரஜினியின் சிவாஜி படம் மூலம் ரூ 1.3 கோடி வரை அரசுக்கு கேளிக்கை வரியாகக் கிடைத்ததாக ஜைபுன்னிசா கூறினார்.
எந்திரன் பட கர்நாடக வெளியீட்டு உரிமை ரூ 9.5 கோடிக்கு விற்கப்பட்டது. இந்தத் தொகையை முதல் வாரத்திலேயே அந்த விநியோகஸ்தர் எடுத்துவிட்டார் என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.

No 3D in Enthiran: Sun Pictures !!!
In the midst of speculations about the addition of 3D effects for about 7 minutes to superstar Rajinikanth's English version of his latest sensation Enthiran (Robot), Hansraj Saxena, CEO of Sun Pictures, clarified that they have no plans in releasing Endhiran with additional 3D effects, saying clearly that the said news is completely false.
Meanwhile, Enthiran is still ruling the box office and creating new records. According to trade analysts, Enthiran has collected approximately Rs. 225 crores within just two weeks of its release.
In Tamil Nadu alone, it has raked in around Rs. 150 crores, while another Rs. 50 crores has trickled in from other Southern states. Meanwhile, its Hindi version Robot has done exceptionally well in the North and collected Rs. 15 crores.

The collection figures arguments are never gonna end!
The fact is Producers hype their figures during the 1st few weeks to promote attendance; distributors/theatre owners will play down their share to avoid paying IT and producers' share.
Actors naturally will want to boost the figures/running time.
In the meantime, the only party guranteed to lose money in the whole deal - the Ragisan of any star - will believe what he wants - usually one source for HIS fav actor and other sources for all others, if he is a hardcore rasigan
Humble rqst to Rajini fans - vittu thallungalaenppaa...
We have a great movie to enjoy! TV channels nationwide are falling over each other to give highly flattering programs! The 'condescension' factor in the NI media has come down greatly, just compared to about a month ago...
Even non-Tamil/Non-Indian media like Slate, have been covering Rajini now.
As I have said before, it is a great time to be a Rajini fan! Why spoil the mood by provoking others or by letting others provoke us?
In a field where actual figures are hard to come by, the statements by prominent personalities (like Sanjay Pinto abt TRP or Abhirami Ramanathan) abt collections and the clamor for Rajini films by Producers, Distributors & Theatre owners give a glimpse of his BO/media pull - that shd be enough.

we need big stars like rajini to keep our south strength going over the country... ippadi once in a while when a tamil movie comes and beats all india collections its nice but how much longer is this going to go on is the question. after rajini stops acting do u think its going to ever happen again? i dont think so so lets cherish this moment as long as it lasts. i don't think any other actor will beat the all india records after rajini is gone. Tamil industry is so fortunate that this marathi superstar picked tamil as his main film entry... imagine if he had just focused on hindi. Originally Posted by ajaybaskar

They envy the success of Rajinikanth because they know they don't have anything of that large scale in their industry.

hmmmm very true .....
but there other ways such as increasing/upgrading our marketing strategy to make impact in Indian Cinema/World Cineme..... I find that overall South Indian industry (Tamil and Telugu being the biggest) lacks marketing power when compared to Bollywood.... If producers/actors/aritist put more effort into marketing, we can diff make an impact....
But none the less, Thalivar is a TRUE GEM for Tamil Cinema..... With Sivaji and Endhiran, thalivar has extended our market locally and internationally. I just hope, that other actors try to keep up the new market and create more news once in future.......
With ENDHIRAN we as TAMIL CINEMA has shown the world that we can make a movie in par with international standard ...... and it is a truly a big leap for us, and we have to thank the ENTIRE team for their effort they have put into this project....
I went with couple of my north indian friends for the third time to watch the movie. The knew the whole project, SRK rejecting .... and Rajini taking over etc.... they listened to the songs and were looking forward to watching the movie ..... it was so funny, because, they knew thalivar (in terms of punch diologues, style, figh etc....) .... but after watching the movie, they were awe struck, with his acting .... they had no words to say, the LOVED the movie and gave two thumbs up. One of the friend who was with said that "thank god srk did not act in this movie he would have screwed it up "
PS: I am not making fun of SRK ...
they had a blast...... they recommeded the movie to their family members and friends......
what they really liked the movie was the concept, the graphic, the songs, the visual (Kilimanjaro location) .....
After three weeks, Endhiran has been taken of from theaters here in Ottawa I was looking forward to watching it again ... sigh now, I have to wait till Blue Ray hits the market.......

hmmmm very true .....
but there other ways such as increasing/upgrading our marketing strategy to make impact in Indian Cinema/World Cineme..... I find that overall South Indian industry (Tamil and Telugu being the biggest) lacks marketing power when compared to Bollywood.... If producers/actors/aritist put more effort into marketing, we can diff make an impact....
But none the less, Thalivar is a TRUE GEM for Tamil Cinema..... With Sivaji and Endhiran, thalivar has extended our market locally and internationally. I just hope, that other actors try to keep up the new market and create more news once in future.......

Saw Endhiran again (second time) with my wife last night.
This time as well thoroughly enjoyed the first half. It was quite a breeze with the only low point being Santhanam/Karunas duo.
Watching second time, second half sagged a bit for me once Chitti v1.0 was destroyed. But got back interest from the juncture where v2.0 takes over Sana.
For second viewing, the movie was still entertaining.

IS ENDHIRAN 3D POSSIBLE?
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-25-10-10.html
There were speculations last week that Endhiran will be made in 3D and will be released in theatres soon. If that was great news to the admirers of Endhiran, the news today comes as a moment of glum. Sun Pictures' CEO Mr. Hansraj Saxena has quashed all the rumours and news about Endhiran's 3D avatar and has said that there are no plans to convert the film into 3D. This has ended all talks about the movie's new version.
Though it is the new trend in Hollywood to release old films in 3D, the latest development has surely disappointed fans who were expecting to see their Thalaivar in 3D.

It’s Endhiran all the way in Chennai city. The film in its third week in nearly 40 screens is still doing 85 to 100 percent during the weekends. The film is said to have crossed the magic figure of Rs 5 Crore plus distributors share in a record two weeks.
At number two is the steady Boss Engira Baskaran, a super hit lapped up by the family audiences. In the third place is NTR’s Brindavan, which has been declared a hit by the trade. For the countdown sake in the fourth position is Thottu Paar and in the last place is Priyadarshan’s new realistic Aakrosh.
Enthiran
Cast:Rajinikanth, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Danny, Santhanam, Karunas

it could be possible that the purchasing price of endhiran city right's is very high... previous highest price, IMO, was sivaji with 6.5C.... endhiran should be definitely more than 6.5C.... Now, endhiran had collected more than 5C (only distributor share with, probably, 55:45 ratio), they are projecting the expected share which would be right now in the range of "hit" category.....if you sell the movie for high price and expecting Blockbuster in second week itself is kind of not acceptable. i still believe it would be the BB, but right now, it would not be right time to call BB. Even the movie become Super hit, i am damn sure this would be the biggest hit crossing sivaji in chennai. Originally Posted by ajaybaskar

Light Stage brings The Robot to life in India
2010-Oct-25
India’s costliest film “Endhiran The Robot” has used the Light Stage technology from USC ICT which was used in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Spiderman
“Endhiran The Robot”
India’s costliest film “Endhiran The Robot” has used the ICT Light Stage for photorealism. Sun Pictures’s “Endhiran The Robot” starring superstar Rajnikanth (Asia’s 2nd highest paid actor after Jacki Chan) and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Shankar’s tenth effort, has been raising anticipation for months with its visual effects and novel script. Aside from being the most anticipated movie of the year is also the most expensive Indian film to date. The film has an ambitious story to tell, that of a scientist who creates a robot that turns rogue. Robot is a highly entertaining Indian film. 3 Oscar winners Stanwinston Studios from LA(Animatronics), Rasul pukutti(Sound designer) and A.R. Rahman (music composer) also worked on the film. This film has over 2000 visual effects shots and was supervised by Srinivas Mohan.
About Doom Light Stage
http://gl.ict.usc.edu/LightStages/
Based on original research led by Paul Debevec at the ICT University of California at Berkeley and published at the 2000 SIGGRAPH conference, the Light Stage systems efficiently capture how an actor’s face appears when lit from every possible lighting direction. From this captured imagery, specialized algorithms create realistic virtual renditions of the actor in the illumination of any location or set, faithfully reproducing the color, texture, shine, shading, and translucency of the actor’s skin. What is significant about the method used by the ICT is how it separates specular and diffuse light, thereby providing extremely high quality imagery for extremely effective photorealism.
As a Vfx supervisor, “I was waiting for the opportunity to use this technology. Finally in this project I got a chance to use it.”, explains Srinivas Mohan. The Doom Light stage scanning helped to get an extremely high resolution CGI face with tremendous details. Paul Debevec did the scanning personally for the project. “From these scans we got a highly detailed 3d face mesh OBJ file, 3 Diffuse RGB Normal maps, one Specular Normal map, one Diffuse texture map and one specular intensity map” points out Mohan. All the images were in HDR format (High Dynamic Range) format. To utilize these high detail images, “we have developed a new proprietary maya skin shader plugin with the help of Jupiter Jazz for 3delight render” he adds.
Srinivas Mohan & his team has done a fantastic Job in the movie Endhiran. Rajinifans.com wishes srini & VFX team a great success.

No, he didn't mention Rahman's name in the opening of the program (0.04 to 0.10). I know it might have been just a mistake or unintentional but still can't help to notice that it just looked quite glaring for a program exclusively dedicated to songs.

Bay,
I don't think it will affect the colections of Endhiran. The movie is doing extremely well and more importantly carrying very good WOM and hype which will shield it from the Sun TV propoganda frustations.
If at all any, anti-Sun/Maran sentiments will only affect the future SUN picture productions.

Endhiran to cross 500 crores mark in 50 days
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
In an earlier post we found that with the available prints 360 crores is possible in 10 days.
1-10 days - 360 C
11-20 days - 280 C (drop of 20%)
21-30 days - 140 C (another 50% drop)
31-40 days - 70C (another 50% drop)
41-50 days - 35C (another 50% drop)
50 days collection - 880 crores.
Now let us argue the real collection is only 60% of above calculation.
Still it crosses 500 crores in 50 days.
First Indian movie to reach this milestone in BO

In an earlier post we found that with the available prints 360 crores is possible in 10 days.
1-10 days - 360 C
11-20 days - 280 C (drop of 20%)
21-30 days - 140 C (another 50% drop)
31-40 days - 70C (another 50% drop)
41-50 days - 35C (another 50% drop)
50 days collection - 880 crores.
Now let us argue the real collection is only 60% of above calculation.
Still it crosses 500 crores in 50 days.

காளிக்கே கிடைத்திருக்க வேண்டியது. ப்ச்.
திரையுலகத்தில் ரஜினி படம் என்றாலே புயல் கரையை கடப்பது போலத்தான். ரேடியோவில் சொல்லுவாங்க.. "வங்கக் கடலோரம் 3 கிலோ மீட்டர் தொலைவில் மையம் கொண்டுள்ள காற்றழுத்த தாழ்வு மண்டலம் கடலூர் மற்றும் அதன் கரையோர பகுதிகளை இன்று மாலை 5 மணி வாக்கில் கடக்கக் கூடும் என எதிர்ப்பார்க்கப் படுகிறது. மீனவர்கள் கடலுக்கு செல்லாமல் இருக்க எண் 8 கொடி பறக்க விடப்பட்டுளது. " அது போன்ற ஒரு உணர்வு எந்திரன் வெளியாகும் நேரத்தில்...
சும்மா கரைய கடந்து செல்ல வில்லை. விளாசித் தள்ளிக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறது... இந்த முறை இசைப்புயலும் சேர்ந்து கொண்டதால் அராஜகத்தின் அதிர்வுகள் மிகவும் அதிகம்...
ஆரம்பத்தில் என்னவெல்லாம் இசை விமர்சனங்கள் வந்த வண்ணம் இருந்தது.. ஷங்கர் படத்தில் இனி ரஹ்மான் பணி புரிய வேண்டாம் என்றார்கள். தொலை நோக்கு இசையில்லை என்றார்கள். அந்தப் பாடலில் உயிரில்லை, இந்தப் பாடலில் உணர்வில்லை என்றார்கள். இப்போ! எந்திரன் படப் பாடல்கள் செல்லாத ஊரில்லை. நுழையாத இடமில்லை. அனைத்து ஜீவ ராசிகளும் எந்திரன் இசையால் மந்திரித்து விட்டது போல இருக்கிறது..
சுஜாதாவின் கடைசி படம் இந்த அளவு மாபெரும் வெற்றி பெறுகிறது என்பதை நினைத்துப் பார்க்கும் போது, இதைவிட அவருக்கு ஒரு சிறப்பான நினைவஞ்சலி வேறு எதுவுமே இருக்க முடியாது. வெகுஜன எழுத்தாளர் வெகுஜனத்தோடு ஒன்றாக கலந்து விட்டார்.

Lo.o.ong Article in Hindu's Sunday Mag:
Rajnikanth has once again shown why he is the highest paid actor in Asia after Jackie Chan. “Endhiran” has raked in record box-office collection in the initial weeks. But, in the midst of all those special effects and graphics, where has the loner, the angry young man of the 1980s gone?
The ‘rebel' image of Rajnikant unleashed a sort of counter culture which would rock remote villages...
Honestly I don't believe that any celebrity can be as modest as Rajnikant. At a function to commemorate Kamalahasan's 50 {+t} {+h} anniversary in cinema, he proudly acknowledged, “I am what I am today because of Kamalahasan!” And I also don't believe any superstar can be so politically naïve as to declare that Bal Thackeray is like his god and get away with it too! So, at the outset, for someone who has ruled unchallenged for three decades in Tamil cinema, let us feel thankful that he has remained non-political!
Rajnikant is indeed an incredible phenomenon and yet, if we choose randomly from his 150-odd movies like ‘Manithan', ‘Maveeran' or ‘Mannan', chances are that they are badly crafted with pathetic sets embellished with some ridiculous pieces of choreography and embarrassing stunts. By any convention, one cannot claim that Rajnikant has a demeanour which can remotely subscribe to the idea of ‘good-looking' and a review of his acting talent will draw out only a tiny repertoire of gestures. Yet, his gimmicks have crowned him as the lord of ‘style'! So what made this phenomenon? Was it part of our familiar anti-incumbent factor?
Yes, in a way. The 1960s' image of MGR was a kind of totemic mask which would strangely set most of the ground rules for Rajnikant to follow or even break. Following in his footsteps, he neither takes on mythological roles nor plays the upper caste card. But the robust and clean image was not for him. With his drinking and smoking roles, the ‘rebel' image of Rajnikant spouting sexist rhetoric would categorically demolish MGR's persona, unleashing a sort of counter culture which would rock remote villages of Tamil Nadu.
When this young man from Bangalore entered Tamil Nadu around the mid 1970s, little would he know that his melodramatic Tamil film lovers were going through one of their strongest identity crises. During the emergency, their two big Dravidian party bosses would vie with each other to ally with their arch rival — the Hindi-speaking Congress party. The political dream of a Tamil Nation stood completely betrayed but the dream of an all-embracing Tamilian culture had to be kept alive for cinema to survive! Cinema was going to be their last straw.
Different iconography
Fortunately, the Tamil new wave cinema was enunciated by rebel newcomers like Bharathiraja, Bhagyaraj, Balachander, Balu Mahendra and their dreams were yoked primarily on the shoulders of Rajnikant and Kamalahasan. Their manifestation on screen was not going to mimic the earlier Dravidian iconography but instead enact an antithesis which was going to recolour a monotonous film industry.
The icon of Rajnikant was thrown in to lead the chariot pulled by the Tamil populace who desperately needed a new identity and reassert their desire for a new Tamil space. The heroic or anti-heroic mask that he donned so often can be better appreciated if we study the parallel phenomenon of Amitabh Bachchan meticulously crafted by Salim and Javed! Their ‘angry young man' of Amitabh was going to scatter the fears emanating out of Mrs. Gandhi's autocratic regime, but the Tamil superstar's narratives were going to re-enact the tragedy of a dream gone sour.
Keeping in tune with this dilemma, most films show that his infancy is deeply troubled with his mother either abandoning or dying, forcing him to grow up like an unlawful child, seeking ways of legitimising his identity/ existence. The lone subaltern struggle connects him with an assortment of authoritarian villains, ranging from underground gun runners (“Mr. Bharat”) to cruel industrialists (“Mannan”); from merciless colonial rulers (“Maveeran”) to cold-blooded landlords (“Padayappa”); from glossy metropolitan gangsters (“Basha”) to corrupt educationists (“Sivaji”). He also had his fair share of departures in films like “Mundru Mugam”, “Thillu Mullu” and even “Sivaji” where he paired himself with typical Tamil film comedians like Nagesh, Senthil and Vivek to show a slightly different facet of his demeanour. He also did some sober films like “Johnny” and “Arulirinthu Arrupadhu Varai” where he played the ill-fated protagonist with all kinds of personal tribulations. He even accepted an inconsequential role of a taxi driver in a C grade Hollywood film called “Bloodstone”. He must have hoped that these films would bring him some kind of appreciation through National awards or International honours from his NRI devotees! Unfortunately no and he suffered equally trying to make a mark in Bollywood too. His frustration must have been so deep that he goes ‘spiritual' and as a mark of his departure from the agnostic Tamilian route, he plays the role of ‘Saint Raghavendra' for his 100 {+t} {+h} film in 1985.
The cruelty of the system gets partially redeemed via Mani Ratnam. “Thalapathi” (1991) restores Rajnikant's belief in himself as an actor, underplaying the modern adaptation of ‘Karna' in the Mahabharata with some fabulous music by Ilayaraja and ably supported by Malayalam superstar Mammooty. And in the climax of the film, when he mercilessly slays Amrish Puri, one almost feels him kicking Bollywood where it hurts!
Over the years, he has managed to pay off all his emotional debts! Consequently, he is no more in the affordable range for most filmmakers and thus capable of withdrawing into his secretive spiritual retreats. He is unmoved by the fact that his films “Muthu” and “Veera” even found some avid fans when it was released in Tokyo.
Too few
Is this new spiritual mask the only way for him to escape? Why is the angry young man of the 1980s so disgusted with the reality of the 21 {+s} {+t} century? Just six films in the last 14 years for someone who did 100 films between 1975 and 1985 is indeed a troubling statistic!
We all know that the Rajnikant era will soon be over. But it is indeed sad to see four years of hard labour wasted in “Endhiran”. And even sadder to see this raw bundle of energy being defaced by all kinds of special effects and graphics! The film had to be virtually bulldozed into 500-plus theatres screening eight times a day at appalling prices over the opening weekend, leaving thousands of his fans seriously ‘lost'. The producers claim to have recovered the cost and more but should this phenomenon called Rajnikant end as a ‘robot'? Or was the self-dismantling of the robot in the film Rajni's way of declaring ‘Nirvana'?

Lightning discharges huge volume if electricity.
when chitti is hit by lightning, the data which is stored in it as feelings cud have been disturbed by the lightning which altered the neural schema / stored data resulting in it realising the feelings.
This was indirectly mentioned by Vasi regarding Human evolution being an "accident" tharcheyala nadandha vibaththu! We can correlate these 2.

I guess Yes to some extent.
After MM, Murungakai matter got sticked to KB in ppl's mind. So tried something similar after that.
But I think even his earlier movies also had substance like that but they din't click as MM.
Someone who knows older movies better can explain.

I dont know robotics, but i know the human body. no emotion, i repeat, NO EMOTION is possible without the perception of pain (physical pain to begin with, and psychological pain as the person grows). Pain makes one vulnerable. Chitti, or any other robot for that matter, cant be made to appreciate emotions unless they are made to experience pain. but making them appreciate pain will essentially destroy the purpose of their creation. For eg, Chitti, a pain sensitive robot, woudnt have leapt into a burning building to save humans. Originally Posted by sathya_1979

My take is Chitti is programmed to induce harmones according to the situation he is in and that maps to an programmed emotion..
it is much more complex than you can imagine, right from receptors of pain and all the other sensations including free nerve endings merkel's discs, organs of corti, retinal ganglia, taste buds, olfactory ganglia, blah, blah, blah..................... for even the minutest perception there is a particular type of receptor which will be conducting the sensation through a series of neurons into the thalamus, which filters the unwanted sensation, processes by inhibiting or augmenting a few of the signals and transmits to a specific region on the parietal cortex of the cerebrum. where the cerebrum integrates the perception from various organs simultneously and also calcuates from the learned experiences from the past and decides what shoud be the immediate, short term and long term responses to a particular stimulus. the execution arm of the response is even more complicated for each of the immediate, short term and long term response. hormones dont even come into the picture, because, for a hormone to act, there has to be a receptor and for a receptor to be present, there has to be a cell, and if there has to be a cell, there has to be an organism which the cell is a part of.
so rather than rationalising this 'lightning gave the peelings' thing, lets accept it as it is and just enjoy it ("anubhavikkaNum, ArAyakkUdAthu")

Kalyan,
I'd disagree that there's no emotions without pain. Emotions are a purely non-physical affair, triggered by one of the senses or even none (in case of a recollection).
I think the key to emotions is generating expectations.
Emotions arise when reality does not match expectations (or when there is a probablity that reality will not match expectations)...

ok, let me make things very very simple.
brain generates morphine. this is called 'endogenous morphine' or 'endorphine'. and it maintains a normal, 'basal' concentration of the same.
higher than basal concentrations of endorphine in the brain will make humans happy (or happiness increases endorphine secretion in the brain)
lower than basal concentrations of endorphine will make one sad (or, stress, pain, sorrow, bereavement will decrease the endorphine concentration in the brain)
when the concept of 'basal' concentration itself doesnt exist, where will the fluctuations and the resultant change of mood come from?
in humans, mood and emotions serve a particular function, they help us to stay alive. they help to activate various positive and negative feedback loops which lead us to alter our behaviour and to adapt to the environment, so that longevity and procreation are ensured.
they dont serve any function in a non living organism, including the dead ones.
hormones cant act in a non biological entity. the results of injecting a hormone into a robot is just the same as injecting a hormone into a teddy bear.

BEST SUMMARY OF ENTHIRAN FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T SEEN THE FILM YET AND YET WANT TO KNOW THE FULL STORYLINE
Dr. Vaseegaran (Rajinikanth), a professor specialized in robotics, creates a sophisticated android robot in his own likeness after a decade of intensive research. His mother (Revathi Sankaran) suggests him to name it Chitti Babu (Rajinikanth).
In the International Robotic Conference - India 2009, Vaseegaran introduces Chitti to the delegates, who are left stunned by its versatile skills and speed. Later it's revealed that Vaseegaran's mentor, Dr. Bohra (Danny Denzongpa) was pre-occupied in a botched research project to create a similar superintelligent android robot. Bohra's experiments turn only partially fruitful and he becomes jealous of Vaseegaran's success.
Chitti endears himself to Vaseegaran's girlfriend, Sana (Aishwarya Rai) and helps her cheat in her medical school exams by using the ZigBee protocol to dictate her the answers from outside the examination hall. Chitti and Sana are caught, but Sana tells the invigilators that she doesn't even know him. Chitti learns that humans may choose to lie for self-preservation. Chitti's superhuman talents soon gains him a lot of fans, especially in the women's hostel housing Sana and interestingly Sana herself likes Chitti more after she was saved from the goons in the train.
Vaseegaran prepares Chitti for a panel evaluation by the Artificial Intelligence Research and Development Institute (AIRD), which is headed by Dr. Bohra. The panel enquires whether Chitti's build confirms to the Three Laws of Robotics of Isaac Asimov.
Vaseegaran replies in the negative. During evaluation, Chitti almost stabs Vaseegaran at Bohra's command. Bohra convinces the evaluation committee that Chitti could not be relied upon in the battlefield because he could be easily made to turn against his owners. Vaseegaran is disappointed as Chitti fails the evaluation. Later, Chitti tries to rescue a girl from a building fire emergency. Indifferent to the girl's nudity, Chitti carries her into the public and media focus. As she tries to run away from the TV cameras, she is fatally run over by a truck.
Vaseegaran decides to modify Chitti's neural schema and embed a positronic brain to allow him to understand human psyche, behaviour and emotions, and succeeds in doing so by installing a new hormone simulation module into the robot. Later Chitti successfully applies his knowledge in ancient and modern medical sciences to handle the complicated labour of Latha (Devadarshini), Sana's friend. The procedure is covered live by the media. Dr. Bohra arrives to congratulate Dr.Vaseegaran on the achievement. He also lets Chitti pass the AIRD's evaluation. But problems have only begun for Vaseegaran. Chitti begins to develop tender feelings for Sana. This causes a confrontation between Vaseegaran and Chitti at Sana's birthday party. Sana tries to explain Chitti that she can love him only as a friend and asks him to forget her.
Dr. Bohra tries to take advantage of the situation and tells Chitti that Vaseegaran is using him only for his personal benefits, and that he does not value Chitti's feelings. Dr Bohra's words do have their effect on Chitti; he deliberately fails in an evaluation conducted by the Indian Army. Vaseegaran, in a fit of rage, chops Chitti into pieces and throws it away in a landfill site. Bohra, who had already struck up a deal with a European terrorist group through an Indian agent named Shah (Sabu Cyril) to sell them superintelligent robots, had failed to meet the deadline and is given an ultimatum by the group's leader.
He retrieves Chitti's parts from the junkyard and fixes it up. He gives Chitti a new appearance, and embeds a "red chip" inside Chitti, thereby converting him into a ruthless terminator. Chitti gatecrashes Vaseegaran and Sana's wedding, kidnaps her, imprisons her in AIRD and threatens her with rape and creation of a cyborg in her womb.
Vaseegaran establishes remote communication with Chitti via holographic projection and instructs Chitti to return to his lab. But Chitti refuses to oblige and disconnects the transmission. Calling himself "Version 2.0" now, Chitti begins to create replicas. Dr. Bohra, who tries to challenge, is killed by Chitti. Soon Chitti's army of robots cause mayhem in the city, and take over AIRD. Media begins to speculate on a impending cybernetic revolt. Vaseegaran undertakes the responsibility to stop Chitti. Disguised as one of the robots, he successfully infiltrates Chitti's fort -- the AIRD headquarters. Vaseegaran instructs the police to cut the power supply in the entire city and Sana distracts Chitti from the problem by pretending that she had finally fallen in love with him. Eventually, when Chitti and his army are about to run out of power, they find an alternate solution: they seize vehicles on the road and use their batteries to recharge themselves up.
Chitti finds out Vaseegaran, but as Chitti is about to kill him, the police force strikes the fort. The robots assemble themselves into a sphere, snake, tower, and drill bit formations to defend themselves. One of the robots get immobilized by a grenade explosion, and is taken into custody by Vaseegaran. He uploads a computer worm into Chitti's network which temporarily brings down the robot army. Chitti identifies the source of the worm and sends a "self-destruct" command to the robot. Eventually, the robots assemble in the shape of a giant and chase Vaseegaran's armoured bus.
Vaseegaran used the data he had backed up from the destroyed robot to de-magnetise the robot army, which results in the collapse of the giant formation. Chitti is pulled into the bus by a huge magnetic wall. Vaseegaran now has access to Chitti's internal control panel, through which he instructs all the other robots to self-destruct. He then removes the red chip, thereby calming him down.
In a final court hearing, the judge rules capital punishment for Vaseegaran for the number of human tolls caused by the robot army. Chitti, explaining to the court that the law allows him to be treated as a valid evidence, explains that it was Dr. Bohra who caused Chitti's deviant behaviour. He shows the court, using his eyes as 3D projectors, the video footage of Dr. Bohra installing the red chip inside him. The court decides to drop all charges against Vaseegaran, while concluding that Chitti should be dismantled in order to avoid further mishaps of the same kind in future. The court also observes that a robot as advanced as Chitti is "unnecessary for contemporary human life". Back at the lab, in the presence of government and police officials, an emotional Vaseegaran tells Chitti to dismantle itself.
While taking off its parts one by one, Chitti apologizes to Sana and Vaseegaran for the problems it caused.Twenty years later, in 2030, students in a science museum are escorted by a guide towards a showcase that has Chitti's body parts arranged. The guide tells the students that Chitti was the most advanced humanoid robot that was created twenty years ago and that it was dismantled due to "certain reasons". A curious girl (Shriya Sharma) asks why, to which Chitti's head responds saying, "I started to think". As the guide takes the students to another exhibit, the girl looks back at Chitti in disbelief.

You know what? Though Ghajini is the ‘highest grossing Indian film of all time’,its not the biggest money spinner in India? Rajinikanth’s Sivaji is. The movie’s share from both languages (Tamil and Telugu) is 64 crores. Till 3 Idiots arrived, this movie holds the number one spot in actual revenues.

He says that he noticed a huge difference in graphics towards the end of the film and I think he's right about that because I also felt the graphics in first half was better than the shape shifter/transformer graphics it didn't feel as realistic as the first half effects.

No doubt that it was a creative idea to make a shape shifting robot but still I felt that the second graphics weren't upto the par of the first half especially that train sequence and all. But still a lot of people were more stunned with second half than first in terms of graphics.

Enthiran (Tamil: எந்திரன்) is a 2010 Tamil science fiction film co-written and directed by S. Shankar. The film features Rajinikanth in dual roles, as a professor and an android robot. Aishwarya Rai and Danny Denzongpa play other lead roles while Santhanam, Karunas, Kalabhavan Mani, Devadarshini, and Cochin Haneefa play supporting roles. The film's story revolves around a scientist's struggle to control his creation, an android robot whose programme was upgraded to give it the ability to comprehend and generate human emotions. The plan backfires as the robot falls in love with the scientist's fiancée and is further manipulated to bring destruction to the world when it lands in the hands of a rivaling scientist. How the robot is stopped from further destruction forms the rest of the plot.
After nearly a decade of pre-production work, the film was shot over two years beginning in 2008. Produced by Kalanidhi Maran and Hansraj Saxena, it became India's most expensive film.[3] Upon release, it also made the largest worldwide opening for an Indian film.[4][5] The film's background score and soundtrack was composed by A. R. Rahman, which released as an album on 31 July 2010. The film released worldwide on 1 October 2010, along with its dubbed versions: Robot in Hindi and Robo in Telugu.[6] Upon release, it enjoyed critical acclaim and commercial success across the globe, collecting an unprecedented 62 crore in the opening weekend and 117 crore in first week, becoming the highest grossing film in the history of Indian cinema.[7]

what he needs is a Robot that can apply judgement in human terms (or human values), not one that can simply experience human emotions.
For eg., during the AIRD, he should have recognized his greater loyalty to Vasi instead of Bohra; In the fire rescue, he should have recognized that to Tamil girls, Manam & Life are equal and it is not worth saving the latter while losing the former.
So what Chitti needed was a lesson in CULTURAL values; I dont know why he would need to experience emotions to do this.
One can argue that emotions can actually cloud one's judgement most of the time & hence are useless, even detrimental to where Chitti needed to evolve to.

β-endorphin is an endogenous opioid peptide neurotransmitter found in the neurons of both the central and peripheral nervous system.
The amino acid sequence is: Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Met-Thr-Ser-Glu-Lys-Ser-Gln-Thr-Pro-Leu-Val-Thr-Leu-Phe-Lys-Asn-Ala-Ile-Ile-Lys-Asn-Ala-Tyr-Lys-Lys-Gly-Glu[1]

What matters is the external responsiveness.
RECOGNIZING standard human emotions does not require an ability to experience them. I think we may be very close to doing that with current technology (read facial expressions, body language, then apply to a culturally aware mapping algorithm).
Cultural Values can actually be taught. A lot of multi-national employees go thru that. This is nothing more than a series of Required responses to situations and prohibited responses to situations (just like chess).
Regarding Point 4, karaoke machines can actually grade you based on yr ability to stick to the required key/tone. I believe we can also provide different responses to different tastes just by bio-chemical analyses. so, yes one can make a machine that spits out bitter liquids and accepts sweet liquids, purely based on their chemical content...
Again, it is the EXTERNAL behavior that is important...

Thank god chitti the robot did not do a full human body change like Andrew in bicentennial man because if he did then he would also age and die... Bicentennial man ending was too depressing because Andrew wanted to experience aging and die. This idea would have never worked with us rajini fans because we don't like to see our star die. But still I think robin Williams did an amazig job in that movie as the innocent robot. He is the English good chitti.

2) until the age of 8, emotions are driven by primitive feelings of hunger, thirst and pain.
3) even a worm not more than half an inch in length will move away when you try to prick it with a needle, though it may not be consciously aware of death. in humans, evolution has stored all these basic defence mechanisms in the paleocortex and archicortex (knowledge gathered by the previous generations are transmitted to the off spring without any conscious awareness or learning).
so the defences have always been there, even if the child is not consciously aware of an entity called "death".
crying- attracting attention is one of the major defence mechanism in infants and toddlers when they are faced with a hostile stimulus (hunger, thirst, pain, new environment) since all these stimuli take away the sense of security, and make them feel vulnerable, even though they are still not consciously aware of 'death'.
4) keeping a pet, feeding it, making it feel secure, ruffling its fur, playing with it, all these increase the endorphine concentration in the brain. so when the pet dies, the endorphine concentration suddenly falls and the chid becomes sad and at sometimes inconsolable. Endorphines have no work in an entity which does not feel pain.
5) let me make it simpler:
there is no 'high' without the sensation of 'pain', because, 'high' is nothing but the equivalence point of 'absolute zero' pain, or very close to that. something like 0 degree Kelvin for pain.

1) there are two arms to complete any reflex action to any stimulus, the affector arm and the effector arm. the 'perception' is the job of the affector arm and 'execution' is the job of the effector arm. muscles come under the effector arm, it just obeys the command from the brain, but in our hypothetical scenario, it is the affector arm which is severely found deficient.

3) karoake senses your tone since it has the sensor to identity the pitch and compare with the set of pre recorded options. this is just a one dimentional quantification. more importantly, the karoake system doesnt 'learn' anything new from each exposure to a singer and the learning is not going to afect its future behaviour.

Tamil film industry is expanding its territory across various regions now. With Superstar Rajnikanth’s Endhiran rocking at its best in both Hindi and Telugu versions, it has paved way for other actors to dub their films in these languages now. It has been already confirmed that Suriya’s upcoming film Ezham Arivu will be dubbed in Telugu and Hindi as well.
This is mainly because the entire crew has become more popular across Telugu and Hindi film industries. Suriya has been well appreciated for his performance in debut film Rakht Charithra (which is again a trilingual movie. Despites her debut film being a box office disaster, Shruthi Haasan has turned spotlights in Bollywood. A.R. Murugadoss’ overnight success with Aamir Khan’s Ghajini has been the deciding factors for releasing Ezham Arivu in Hindi and Telugu.
Now it’s turn of Kamal Haasan to get his upcoming film Manmadhan Ambu dubbed in Hindi and Telugu. The film’s producer Udhayanidhi Stalin has decided this film because of the star-values. Kamal Haasan has huge fans following him across the Nation while Madhavan is already a famous actor and Trisha as well.
The film’s shooting has been completed and Udhayanidhi Stalin is reported of spending nearly Rs.20Crores for the marketing and publicity campaigns. The film is directed by K.S. Ravikumar and Kamal Haasan has handled story, screenplay and dialogues.

Endhiran and Robot Box Office Collection: As the days are passing, Rajinikanth starrer movie Endhiran is making high mark on the box office collection ground.
According to the latest box office collection update, Shankar’s much awaited movie has collected 950 million rupees (21 million dollars), the highest-ever in India.”
“In the opening weekend, all the three versions of Robot have together collected 950 million rupees (21 million dollars), the highest-ever in India,” said Komal Nahta, a Bollywood trade analyst.
Reports say that the movie has already surpassed other movies like Salman Khan’s recent hit “Dabaang” and Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots in making money.
Shankar spent more than 35 million dollars to make the film. Many analysts feel that the film will make more money in coming days.

LLD,
you are making me come back to square one.
1) sensation is different. perception is different. sensation requires a senor and an analyser. (sensory organ and brain, in case of humans). perception has a psychological component (pleasure or displeasure) associated with that sensation.
does your karoake which can identify the various notes and pitches gets a pleasure when it hears good music and displeasure when it hears a pig squeal?
'sense' is different from 'affect'
'affect' is necessary for emotions.
you cant make a robot understand intercourse as "an act of immense pleasure which fulfills the need of procreation" since pleasure can not be understood without experiencing, at least in part, the other end of the same spectrum, that is pain.
2) for human body,
temperature is relative: everything warmer than 37 deg C is perceived as 'warmth' or even 'heat'. similarly, everything less than 37 deg C is perceived as the various degrees of being cold.
pressure is relative: every square inch of the body is constantly exposed to 14 pounds (6.5 kg!!) of pressure (which is in fact a tremendous amount pressure), but the body conveniently ignores it and accepts it as 'normal'. but every extra kg of pressure beyond 14 pounds per square inch can practically crush humans. (For eg, for an adult male having a palm of 40 Square inch area, 6.5 kg per square inch is the equivalent of keeping 260 kg weight just on his palm)
similarly pain is relative: ecstacy is on one end of the spectrum and agony is on the other end of the spectrum. in between are the various other grades including 'high', happiness, pleasure, neutrality, displeasure, pain, excruciating pain etc.
these various grades of pain across the spectrum is the 'sensation'
the pain along with the psychological reaction to pain ('perception'), consitute 'emotion'
if you explain to a robot
eating sweets is pleasure
kissing is pleasure
hugging is more pleasure
sex is ecstacy
then the normal reaction of a robot, who doesnt understand pain will be
"why should one have ecstacy? it feels great even otherwise"
or if you make it experience ecstacy (hypothetical), then the reaction will be "you have programmed me, you gave me ecstacy without the risk of consequences, so why stop now? why cant i continue to keep on being in this state? why should i come back to neutrality?"either way, the purpose of its creation would not be served.

Kalyan,
I dont disagree with you in whatever you've said; I just said it is sufficient to have a Robot that will behave a certain way without actually feeling anything.
If I have a Robot that OUTWARDLY RESPONDS to human emotions correctly, without ever feeling them, that is sufficient.
Just like a Karaoke machine that can rank singers without displaying an attraction for good singers.

Kanna Rao bringing Rajini to cross 'Magadheera'
Mon 25th Oct 2010 09:35 AM
Thota Kanna Rao, the man who won the Telugu distribution rights of ‘Endhiran/robot’ has a big dream to achieve. Yes, Kanna Rao hopes that ‘robot’ will touch the Rs.100 Crore mark in Telugu version and this would be possible if same run for the movie is sustained in coming days.
With unanimous positive talk every where and Rajini’s special craze in Tollywood made movie an instant hit. ‘Movie has already made Rs.60 Crores till now in Andhra Pradesh and this one will surely go towards Rs.100 Crores. We have already released ‘robot’ in 780 screens all across the state and planning to go for 400 more in coming days. In order to sustain the ‘robot’ mania in State, Iam planning to bring Rajinikanth for the 50 Days function which will be conducted in next month,’ said Kanna Rao.
If these numbers gets the authenticity from trade analysts, for sure a dubbing movie like ‘robot’ may pose a threat to records of ‘Magadheera.’

As i said earlier, when the movie collects 28.5C share (until 3rd week), it could possible that the gross would be near 60C due to Entertainment Tax (20% for dubbed movies) and % of distributor's share. Originally Posted by Nerd

Another veLLaikkaaran's take (Positive)
http://jugglingmike.com/wordpress/?p=992
I would guess that most of the budget was spent in the finale, which not only looked great, it was INSANE.Chitti, Evil Chitti, and the scientist are all played by the same actor. I had never seen one of his movies before, but he is apparently very popular. In fact, there was more flash in showing his name at the start than the actual movie title. Also, forget his real name, everybody calls him “Superstar”. While I found that funny at first, by the end of the movie, I have to agree that 61 year old actor Rajinikanth, is well worth his title. He plays three roles that demand lots of action, and you would never expect him to be above 40.

Kerala box office - October 1 to 15
Monday, 25 October 2010
The Kerala Box-office is booming. It’s raining hits as all Ramzan releases have been declared hits. However, the biggest hit in October is Rajinikanth’s Enthiran, which has turned out to be the biggest Tamil hit in Kerala. Take a look at its awesome collections.
Enthiran has taken a distributors’ share of Rs 4.65 crore from 128 releasing screens in 14 days. Phenomenal! It is better than any Malayalam superstar films’ share and is the clear number one by a mile.

Robot, Endhiran box office collection soars, anoints Rajini best Indian film star ever
27 October, 2010
Robot, Endhiran box office collection soars, anoints Rajini Biggest Indian film star ever. Endhiran is making waves across the world. From a tiny Tamil nadu hamlet to Los Angeles, the film has been well received. It is making millions of dollars in box office collections and nobody seems to be smiling more vigorously than Rajinikant, who can simply be called the biggest Indian film star of all times.
He is a man who everyone respects in India be it the Tamil nadu chief minister or top Bollywood actors and actresses. It was the reason that Aishwarya Rai agreed to act against him despite being some twenty five years younger to her. She played her lover in the film first in the avatar of a scientist and then as that of his humanized computer.
The film has reportedly generated more than two hundred and fifty crore at the box office and is still going strong in many territories.
The film was sure to make an impact was evident from the fact that all Tamil films that were being planned for the same release date were postponed for at least two weeks as no one wants to be faced with such a great star.
A Times of India report says that there was so much anticipation from the film that, …”most Tamil producers/distributors are reluctant to open their films in the two weeks leading up to Endhiran's premiere on September 24. The apprehension is that their productions will get dwarfed by the publicity blitzkrieg around the superstar's latest offering”

From Pune Mirror:
Rajini changes Prabhat's reel
Devidas Deshpande
Posted On Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 11:38:11 PM
A poster of Hindi film Robot at Prabhat Talkies made most regulars of the theatre rub their eyes with disbelief
► Prabhat Talkies turned 76 years old in September 2010
► On May 25, 1926, the building was gutted in a fire
► Love Me Tonight was the first film to be screened here on August 21, 1934
► Super hit films like Kunku, Padosi and Aadmi were screened for the first time at Prabhat Theatre
Here’s the latest feather in Rajinikant’s cap. After giving Monalisa that smile, knowing Victoria’s secret and getting Google to Rajinikant, he has made it possible for Prabhat Talkies to screen a Hindi film — Robot the Hindi version of the South Indian superstar’s Enthiran.
What’s so great about this, you ask! Well, Prabhat considered the Mecca of Marathi cinema hasn’t screened a Hindi film here since 2001.
While superstar Rajinikanth-starrer Enthiran and Robot (Hindi) are making waves all over the country, Pune isn’t too far behind. Much like the rampage of the Rajini clones in the film, continuing its record march through the country, Robot has managed to register this significant achievement.
It is being shown in Prabhat Talkies predominantly known for showcasing Marathi movies. Prabhat Talkies, Pune’s oldest cinema theatre has entered it’s 76th year. During the last decade and half, it has become the bastion of Marathi movies.
The last time a Hindi movie was showcased here was in 2001, when Veer Savarkar, produced by Sudhir Phadke, was screened here.
So, when posters of Robot were put up at Prabhat Talkies last week on Friday, people had a hard time believing it. Padmakar Wagh, the manager of Prabhat Talkies, said, “It was unbelievable for movie connoisseurs to see a Hindi movie poster put up here.
When people rang up to enquire about the show timings and they heard that we were screening Robot at 6.30 pm and 9.30 pm, they exclaimed, “Is this really Prabhat?”
When asked how and why Robot made it’s way to the theatre, the manager laid to rest all doubts this reporter had of a hostage-like situation masterminded by Chitti-turned-evil.
Wagh said, “There was a huge demand from moviegoers that the movie be screened here. Many people had asked us about it as Robot was making it to the headlines. There was a lot of curiosity about the film.
People who did not want to shell out much money in multiplexes, wanted to watch Robot here. The booking of the movie has lived up to its demand.”
Wagh refused to give this reporter specific numbers, saying that he could not disclose the figures.
According to Wagh, before Veer Savarkar in 2001, real commercial Hindi movies that played here were Fareb and Machis in 1996. It seems that Rajini has started a new trend at Prabhat, Dabangg is also being screened at the theatre now.
Wagh said, “Robot was brought here on public demand. After playing in many multiplexes and theatres in city, we brought it here on an experimental basis. It was played along with Dabangg one a show each day.
In terms of collections, it is somewhat ahead of Dabangg. You can safely say that is first Hindi movie in a decade here.” And just in case you were wondering, “Nahin, Prabhat badnaam nahin hua”.

Of course yes ! Our Thamizh heroines wouldn't have been able to bring out even a 10% of that beauty, grace and personality. There is no doubt Aishwarya's presence added value to the 'Quality' of the movie. Shreya, Nayan, Asin, Trisha ivangaLa pOttirunthaa kEvalamaa irunthirukkum. And she was wise enough not to accept Chanramuki or Sivaji. Originally Posted by pavalamani pragasam

Paramu, it is not about - for her age how does she look, as a pair with Rajini how does she look etc.
Overall, absoleetly speaking she is not quite as great as she used to lookl. The eventuality of ageing etc.
Robert Frost அன்றே சொன்னார்
Nothing Gold can Stay
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Not exactly that.. aging is something natural but namma heroines minji minji pOna 38 vayasula Sun TV serial paNNalaam - they cannot surely do an Enthiran right? Apart from beauty the grace - thats most important. And all who are young dont look beautiful. That's what I was trying to say. Originally Posted by P_R

I was in awe in many scenes and I kept saying to Siva - enna azhagaa irukkaanga.. Naan idhukku munnaadi ellaam sonnathilla - but after watchign enthiran I can without an iota of doubt say that she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.To exaggerate, I felt a mild version of எப்புடி இருந்த நான்... when watching Ash on screen.

I did not like irumbilE, but she was wonderful in Arima Arima. But for the first time I liked her performance. Not earth shattering or anything but she did very well way beyond my expectations.

RGV is a certified, self-confessed opportunist - (without being judgemental), he is a fascinating character precisely for that reason. You should read how he conned Annapurna Studios and Nagarjuna into agreeing to produce Shiva - it is another matter that the movie turned out to be worthwhile - with a mountain of lies to Nag, his brother in law, another director who was supposed to direct Nag's next film, and managing all these lies very effectively despite frequent interaction between these characters.

And thats one of the reasons CM is my least favorite film of Rajini since NoN. I just saw it once in theaters and once in DVD (forced watch, with my mom) and once in Sun TV (Deepavali, friends etc.)

ரஜினி ரசிகன்:சில குறிப்புகள்
2010-Oct-28
அயோத்தி தீர்ப்பு. காமன்வெல்த் குளறுபடிகள். தஞ்சை கோயிலின் ஆயிரமாவது பர்த் டே. தடியூன்றும் வயதிலும் இளவரசராகவே இருக்கும் சார்லஸ் வந்தது. கொடநாட்டு தேவதை குடியிருப்புக் கேந்திரங்களுக்கு இறங்கிவந்து போராடத் தொடங்கியது. மதராசில் மழை. ஈக்வடாரில் புரட்சி. பர்வேஸ் முஷரஃபின் புதுக்கட்சி -
எதையாவது தங்கத் தமிழர்கள் பொருட்படுத்தினார்களா? இவையெல்லாம் எந்திரன் ரிலீஸ் சமயம் நடந்தது யார் பிழை? அலகாபாத் நீதிபதிகளில் தொடங்கி இங்கிலாந்து இளவரசர் வரைக்கும் யாருக்குமே விவரம் போதாது. அட, கலைஞர் கூட ராஜராஜன் திருவிழாவைக் கொஞ்சம் தள்ளியோ முந்தியோ வைத்திருந்தால்தான் என்ன?
தொலைக்காட்சிகள், வானொலிகள், தினசரிகள், வாராந்திரிகள், மாசாந்திரிகள், இணையத் தளங்கள், வலைப்பதிவுகள், ட்விட்டர், ஃபேஸ்புக், எருமை சாப்பிடும் போஸ்டர்கள், ஹோர்டிங்குகள், பேனர்கள், பிட் நோட்டீசுகள் யாவிலும் எந்திரன். ஒரு பரம்பொருள் மாதிரி தமிழகமெங்கும் நீக்கமற நிறைந்துவிட்ட ஒரே செய்தி. ஒரே பேச்சு. ஒரே சிந்தனை.
படம் ரிலீசாகி, அதிகாலை நாலு மணிக்கு சிறப்புக் காட்சி பார்த்துவிட்டு சூப்பர் ஹிட் என்று முதல் எஸ்.எம்.எஸ். அனுப்பியபிறகுதான் தமிழகத்தின் ஜுரவேகம் சற்று மட்டுப்படத் தொடங்கியது.
ஒரு காலத்தில் வடவர் தேசத்தில் அமிதாப் பச்சனுக்கும் காவிரி பாயும் கர்நாடகத்தில் ராஜ்குமாருக்கும் இதே மாதிரியான தொடக்கம் சித்தித்திருக்கிறது என்று பழங்கால சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ஆய்வாளர்கள் சொல்லுகிறார்கள். ஆனால் தொடர்ந்து கால் நூற்றாண்டுக்கு மேலாக ஒரு நடிகரின் படம் வெளியாகும்போதெல்லாம் மாநிலத்தையே பண்டிகை ‘மோடு’க்குத் திருப்பிவைக்கும் சங்கதி அதிகம் நிகழ்வதில்லை. அட ஒரு ஆர்நால்டோ, லியனார்டோ டிகாப்ரியாவோ எத்தனை மெனக்கெட்டாலும் அவர்களுக்கு கட்டவுட் பாலாபிஷேகப் பிராப்தி உண்டாகுமா? தியேட்டர் வாசலில் கற்பூரம் ஏற்றி, தேங்காய், பூசனிக்காயெல்லாம் உடைத்து, சரம் வெடித்து, காசு, காகிதம் பறக்கவிட்டு, தலைவா என்று நெடுஞ்சாண்கிடையாகக் கீழே விழுந்து அங்கப்பிரதட்சணம் செய்து அங்கீகரிப்பார்களா?
சென்னை கமலா தியேட்டர் வாசலில் ஒரு ‘பக்தரு’டன் சற்றுப் பேசிக்கொண்டிருந்தேன். அவர் அதிகாலை அல்லது நள்ளிரவு ஒரு மணிக்கே குளித்து முழுகி மயிலை கற்பகாம்பாள் கோயிலுக்குச் சென்றிருக்கிறார். பொறுப்பற்ற கோயில் நிர்வாகம், அந்நேரத்தில் சன்னிதியைத் திறந்து வைத்திருக்கவில்லையாதலால் வெளியிலிருந்தே விழுந்து வணங்கி மானசீக பூஜை நிகழ்த்தியிருக்கிறார். காவி வேட்டி, வெள்ளைச் சட்டை. இடுப்பிலொரு காவித் துண்டு. தேசிய நெடுஞ்சாலையை விண்வெளியிலிருந்து படமெடுத்தாற்போல நெற்றியில் துலங்கிய வெகுநீள விபூதிப்பட்டை. நடுவே குங்குமமும் சந்தனமும்.
அவர் செருப்பு அணிந்திருக்கவில்லை. வழக்கமில்லாமல் இல்லை. ஆனால் ஏனோ தமிழ் சமூகம் வழிபாட்டினுள் பாதுகையைச் சேர்ப்பதில்லை.
‘இதுதான் சார். இந்த ஒரு நாளுக்காகத்தான் சார் ரெண்டு வருசமா காத்திருக்கேன்’ என்று உணர்ச்சிவசப்பட்டுச் சொன்னார். அவரது கண்கள் கலங்கியிருந்தன. எதற்காக உணர்ச்சிவசப்படுகிறார் என்று எளிதில் புரிந்துகொண்டுவிட முடியாது. ஆராதனை மனோபாவத்தின் உச்சத்தை உணர்தல் அத்தனை எளிதல்ல. சீ என்று புறந்தள்ளுவதும் நகர்ந்துசென்று கிண்டல் செய்வதும் தலையில் அடித்துக்கொண்டு பரிதாபப்படுவதும் அநாவசியம். இது தமிழகம். நாம் தமிழர்கள்.
இன்னொரு ரசிகர் தன் பாக்கெட்டிலிருந்து நான்கு டிக்கெட்டுகளை எடுத்துக் காட்டினார். காலை சிறப்புக் காட்சிக்கானது ஒன்று. காலை ரெகுலர் காட்சிக்கானது மற்றொன்று. மதியக் காட்சிக்கு ஒன்று. மாலைக் காட்சிக்கு ஒன்று. ‘நைட் ஷோ டிக்கெட்டை என் தங்கச்சி எடுத்துக்கிச்சி சார்’
இது என்னவிதமான மனநிலை என்று ஆராயவேண்டியது அவசியம். ஓர் இந்துத்துவ இணையத்தளத்தில், படத்துக்கு விமரிசனம் வெளியாகியிருந்தது. அறிவு ஜீவிகள் தம் வழக்கப்படி ஆராய்ச்சிகள் மேற்கொண்டிருக்க, வீறுகொண்ட ஒரு ரசிகர், இந்துத்துவத்துக்காக ரஜினியை எதிர்ப்பீர்களெனில், எனக்கு இந்து மதமே தேவையில்லை என்று அறிவித்தார். இன்னமும்கூட ஒரு படி மேலே போகலாமே? ‘என் தாய் எனக்குத் தமிழைத்தான் சொல்லிக்கொடுத்தாள். தமிழ்ப் பண்பாட்டை போதித்தது என் தலைவன்தான்.’
ரஜினி போதித்த தமிழ்ப் பண்பாடு குறித்து ஏதாவது பல்கலைக் கழகத்தில் யாராவது முனைவர் பட்டத்துக்கு அவசியம் ஆய்வு செய்யவேண்டும். குறைந்தது, இந்த ரசிகர்களின் மனோபாவத்தைப் பற்றியாவது. வெட்டி விடலைகள் என்று புறந்தள்ளிவிட்டுப் போவது நிச்சயமாக ஆபத்து என்று சொல்லுவேன். இவர்கள், ரசிகர் சமூகத்திலேயே மெஜாரிடிகள். தி.மு.ககாரர்கள், அ.திமுக காரர்கள், பாமககாரர்கள், பாஜககாரர்கள், காங்கிரஸ்காரர்கள், இந்துக்கள், முஸ்லிம்கள், கிருத்தவர்கள், ஆத்திகர்கள், நாத்திகர்கள், நல்லவர்கள், வல்லவர்கள், நோஞ்சான்கள், ஆபீஸ் போகிறவர்கள், தொழில் செய்பவர்கள், கூலி வேலையாட்கள், வேலையில்லாதவர்கள், ஆண்கள், பெண்கள், குழந்தைகள் என அனைத்துப் பிரிவிலிருந்தும் வருகிறவர்கள். ஒரு பொழுதுபோக்குத் துறை சார்ந்த கலைஞரைத் தம் வாழ்வின் ஆதர்சமாக ஏற்றுக்கொண்டு ஆயுள் சந்தா விசுவாசம் செலுத்துபவர்கள். அவர் ருத்திராட்சம் அணிந்தால் இவர்கள் ருத்திராட்சம் அணிவார்கள். அவர் ராகவேந்திரரை வணங்கினால் இவர்கள் ராகவேந்திரரை வணங்குவார்கள். அவர் பாபா என்றால் இவர்கள் இரண்டு விரலை உயர்த்துவார்கள். அவர் தலை வாராவிட்டால் இவர்கள் வாரமாட்டார்கள்.
தமிழகத்தில் உள்ள ரஜினி ரசிகர்கள், ரஜினியைக் காட்டிலும் முக்கியமானவர்கள். அவர்களது ஆற்றல் பிரமிப்பூட்டக்கூடியது. தமது அரசியல், சமூக, மத அடையாளங்களை நகர்த்திவைத்துவிட்டு ரசிகன் என்னும் ஒற்றைப் புள்ளியில் யாரோடும் இணைந்து அவர்களால் என்னவும் செய்ய முடியும். இந்தச் சக்தியின் முக்கியத்துவத்தை முன்னதாக ஒரு தேர்தலே நமக்கு நிரூபித்திருக்கிறது. ஆனபோதிலும் தமிழ்நாட்டு அறிவுஜீவிகள் ரஜினி ரசிகர்களைப் பொருட்படுத்தமாட்டார்கள். விசிலடிச்சான் குஞ்சுகள் என்று சொல்லிவிடுவார்கள். விசிலடிக்கும் கலை எத்தனை கஷ்டமானது என்பது அவர்களூக்குத் தெரியாது.
ஆராதனை மனோபாவம் என்பது அத்தனை எளிதில் கூடிவிடுவதல்ல. தன் சுயத்தை அழித்து அல்லது மறைத்து அல்லது பின்னுக்குத் தள்ளி இன்னொருவரைத் தோளில் ஏந்திக்கொள்வது எல்லோருக்கும் சாத்தியமல்ல. வெட்க உணர்வு, அவமான உணர்வு, குற்ற உணர்வு போன்றவற்றுக்கு இங்கே இடமில்லை. மனம் விரும்பும் ஒன்றை மூடி மறைக்காமல் அப்பட்டமாக வெளிப்படுத்துவது ஓர் உன்னத நிலை.
சென்னை மெலோடி தியேட்டர் வாசலில் எழுபது வயதுக்கு மேற்பட்ட முதியவர் ஒருவரை முதல்நாள் முதல் காட்சி சமயம் காண நேரிட்டது. அவரால் நிற்கவோ, நகரவோகூட முடியவில்லை. தள்ளாமை. எதிரே உள்ள போஸ்டர் எழுத்துகளைக்கூட அவரால் சரியாகப் படிக்க முடியவில்லை. முண்டியடிக்கும் கூட்டத்தில் பேலன்ஸ் தவறாமல் நிற்க முடியவில்லை.
ஆனாலும் அவருக்கு முதல் நாள் படம் பார்க்க வேண்டியது அவசியம். முதல் காட்சியே பார்க்கவேண்டியது அவசியம். நிச்சயமாக இது இருபது, இருபத்தி ஐந்து வருடங்களாக நீளும் வழக்கமாக இருக்கக்கூடும். ரஜினிக்குமுன் அவர் எம்.ஜி.ஆர். ரசிகராகக்கூட இருந்திருக்கலாம். அதற்கும்முன்னால் பாகவதர் ரசிகராக.
சூப்பர் ஸ்டார்களல்ல. அவர்களைத் துதித்துக் கொண்டாடும் மனநிலை மட்டுமே இங்கு முக்கியம்.
இம்மாதம் முதல் தேதி, எந்திரன் வெளியான கணத்தில் ராயப்பேட்டை நெடுஞ்சாலையில் நின்றுகொண்டிருந்தேன். மிகக் குறுகலான அச்சாலையில் சட்டென்று போக்குவரத்து நிறுத்தப்பட்டது. கார்களும் பேருந்துகளும் இரு சக்கர வாகனங்களும் பாதசாரிகளும் தேசியகீதம் இசைத்தாற்போல அப்படி அப்படியே நின்றார்கள். ஒரு மாபெரும் கூட்டம் திரையரங்க வாசலில் வந்து கூடியது. மிகப்பெரிய பட்டாசுக் கட்டு ஒன்றைப் பிரித்து சாலையெங்கும் பரப்பியது. காவலுக்கு இருந்த போலீஸ்காரர் அவர்களுக்கு உதவி செய்து, கூட்டத்தை ஒழுங்கு படுத்தினார்.
வினாடிப் பொழுதில் சாலையை நிறைத்த வாகனங்கள் வெகு தொலைவுவரை நீண்டுவிட்டன. யாரிடமும் ஒரு முணுமுணுப்பும் இல்லை. அலுத்துக்கொள்ளவில்லை. பட்டாசு பற்றவைக்கப்பட்டது. படபடபடபடவென்று வெடித்துச் சிதறிய சத்தமுடன் ஏராளமான விசில் சத்தங்களும் சேர்ந்துகொண்டன. போலீஸ்காரரும் தம் பங்குக்கு அரசு கொடுத்த விசிலை ஊதினார். உள்ளே படம் ஆரம்பித்துவிட்டது.
ஒருநாள் திருவிழாதான். குறைந்தது இரண்டாண்டுகள் இதற்காகக் காத்திருக்கும் மனநிலையை என்னவென்பீர்?
ரஜினி ரசிகர்களை நம் கலாசார அடையாளங்களுள் ஒன்றாக அரசு அறிவித்துவிடலாம்.

Rajini changes Prabhat's reel after a decade.
2010-Oct-27
Here’s the latest feather in Rajinikant’s cap. After giving Monalisa that smile, knowing Victoria’s secret and getting Google to Rajinikant, he has made it possible for Prabhat Talkies to screen a Hindi film — Robot the Hindi version of the South Indian superstar’s Enthiran.
What’s so great about this, you ask! Well, Prabhat considered the Mecca of Marathi cinema hasn’t screened a Hindi film here since 2001.
While superstar Rajinikanth-starrer Enthiran and Robot (Hindi) are making waves all over the country, Pune isn’t too far behind. Much like the rampage of the Rajini clones in the film, continuing its record march through the country, Robot has managed to register this significant achievement.
It is being shown in Prabhat Talkies predominantly known for showcasing Marathi movies. Prabhat Talkies, Pune’s oldest cinema theatre has entered it’s 76th year. During the last decade and half, it has become the bastion of Marathi movies.
The last time a Hindi movie was showcased here was in 2001, when Veer Savarkar, produced by Sudhir Phadke, was screened here.
So, when posters of Robot were put up at Prabhat Talkies last week on Friday, people had a hard time believing it. Padmakar Wagh, the manager of Prabhat Talkies, said, “It was unbelievable for movie connoisseurs to see a Hindi movie poster put up here.
When people rang up to enquire about the show timings and they heard that we were screening Robot at 6.30 pm and 9.30 pm, they exclaimed, “Is this really Prabhat?”
When asked how and why Robot made it’s way to the theatre, the manager laid to rest all doubts this reporter had of a hostage-like situation masterminded by Chitti-turned-evil.
Wagh said, “There was a huge demand from moviegoers that the movie be screened here. Many people had asked us about it as Robot was making it to the headlines. There was a lot of curiosity about the film.
People who did not want to shell out much money in multiplexes, wanted to watch Robot here. The booking of the movie has lived up to its demand.”
Wagh refused to give this reporter specific numbers, saying that he could not disclose the figures.
According to Wagh, before Veer Savarkar in 2001, real commercial Hindi movies that played here were Fareb and Machis in 1996.
It seems that Rajini has started a new trend at Prabhat, Dabangg is also being screened at the theatre now.
Wagh said, “Robot was brought here on public demand. After playing in many multiplexes and theatres in city, we brought it here on an experimental basis. It was played along with Dabangg one a show each day.
In terms of collections, it is somewhat ahead of Dabangg. You can safely say that is first Hindi movie in a decade here.” And just in case you were wondering, “Nahin, Prabhat badnaam nahin hua”.

According to me (And countless others including Satyajit Ray), Jayapradha is the awesomest looking actress ever. Amala, Shobana, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi-lam kooda kitta varra mudiyadhu.
As for Aiswarya yakka, not a fan. I don't think she's drop dead gorgeous beautiful as claimed by many. Nice dancer and a much improved actress, but I'd have countless others above her.

Aish was at her gorgeous best in Jeans and Taal. Despite her age, she still looked very, very pretty in Endhiran and looked perfect for Rajini. And her varied costumes in song sequences, were sitting so well on her. Aish (in Endhiran) >>> (Aish in Raavan) in terms of looks.

This weekend I will be watching it for the 12 th time, it looks better and better after every watch....There are so many things to look at in every frame one watch is not enough..
Should I see Rajni or Aish or other Characters or camera angle or lighting or set design and on top of that BGM.....even a 100 times is not sufficient to enjoy this.......It is an Experience...as Rajini pointed out.

Good news guys one of my dad's friends he saw ENTHIRAN recently and loved the movie. Even though he's palakkad tamil he prefers to see more hindi movies and doesnt watch a lot of tamil movies and wasn't too keen about rajini and aish combo but he says now that he got proved wrong and the movie really was different and he enjoyed it. This comes from a person who doesn't really like Rajini films much so once again Rajini weaves his magic not only on his fans but the whole audience.

படம் எனக்கு அவ்வளவாகப்பிடிக்கவில்லை.
என் மகளுக்கு பரம திருப்தி.
அதனால் நான் அதை அதிகம் குறை கூற விரும்பவில்லை.
ஓர் அறிவியல் இலக்கிய வாசகனுக்கு மிகுந்த சோர்வை உண்டாக்கும்
கருத்துகள் நிறைந்த படம்.
முதல் பாதியில் ஒரு விதமாகவும் பிற்பாதியில் முழுக்கவே வேறு திசையிலும் சென்று முரண்பாட்டு மூட்டையாக காட்சியளிக்கும் படம்.
ஆனால், வித்யாசமாக சிந்திக்கும் திறன் இன்னும் தமிழ் சினிமாவில் செத்து விடவில்லை என்பதற்கு உதாரணம் என்பதால் பரீட்சையில் 'ஸ்டாம்ப்' வாங்கி விடுகிறது.
எதிர்பார்த்த அளவிற்கு ரஜினி இந்தப்படத்தில் எனக்கு ரசிக்கவில்லை.
இன்னும் நன்றாக செய்திருக்கலாம்-கதையில், திரைக்கதையில், கற்பனையிலும்.
கையில் வெண்ணெய் கட்டிகள் நிறைய இருந்தும்....ஹும்ம்..
படத்தின் மிக சிறப்பான பகுதிகள் - நல்ல ரோபொவாக வரும் பகுதிகள் (ரோபோவுக்கு உணர்சிகள் தேவை என்று திரைக்கதை நிறுவும் கட்டங்கள் தவிர்த்து).

தலைவரின் அண்ணன் திரு. சத்திய நாராயண ராவ் திருச்சி விசிட் - விசேஷ புகை படங்கள்.
2010-Oct-29
தலைவரின் எந்திரன் உலகம் முழுக்க பட்டையை கிளப்பி வரும் இத்தருணத்தில் திருச்சி ரம்பா திரை அரங்கிற்கு திடீர் விஜயம் செய்தார் திரு. சத்திய நாராயண ராவ் அவர்கள்.
என்ன தான் ரசிகர்களின் ஆரவாரத்தை தொலைக்காட்சி மற்றும் இன்ன பிற ஊடகங்களில் பார்த்தாலும், அதை நேரில் அனுபவிப்பது என்பது ஒரு வித பரவச நிலையை தரும் என்பது என்பது நிதர்சன உண்மை. அதை ஆமோதிப்பதாக அமைந்தது சத்திய நாராயண ராவ் அவர்களின் இந்த திருச்சி விசிட்.
கும்பகோணம் மற்றும் அதை சுற்றி உள்ள திருகோவில்களில் ஆன்மீக பயணம் மேற்கொண்ட திரு. சத்திய நாராயண ராவ், எந்திரன் திரைப்படத்தை வெளியிட்டதன் மூலம் திருச்சி ரசிகர்களுக்கு 'ரஜினி கோவிலாகவே' மாறிப்போன ரம்பா திரை அரங்கத்தையும் விஜயம் செய்தார்.
ரம்பா திரை அரங்கில் ரசிகர்கள் எந்திரனை வரவேற்று அமைத்திருந்த அலங்கார பேனர் மற்றும், தங்கள் தலைவருக்காக செய்திருந்த மற்ற ஏற்பாடுகளையும் பார்த்து அசந்து அங்கேயே சிறுது நேரம் ரசிகர்களுடன் செலவிட்டார்.
திரு. சத்திய நாராயண ராவ் அவர்களுக்கு சிறப்பான முறையில் திருச்சி தலைமை மன்றம் சார்பாக வரவேற்ப்பு அளிக்கப்பட்டது.
- ரஞ்சித், திருச்சி.

I feel like Sun Pictures have enhanced their image or got more leverage to themselves in the name of "promoting" this movie! In other words, whether they promoted a Rajini movie or not, they have promoted themselves in the process, thanks to Rajini's fan base and reach! Reverse marketing in a way... Now everyone knows about Sun Pictures! Originally Posted by thamiz

‘Endhiran’ at Bath Film Festival
IndiaGlitz [Friday, October 29, 2010] 1
Not contented with creating new box office records only, Rajini’s ‘Endhiran’ has started moving into festival circuits. The schedule for the 20th Bath Film Festival to be held from November 10-20 has been announced and ‘Endhiran-The Robot’ is featuring in that.
The biggest ever Indian film will be screened in the India at Bath Film Festival section at the Little Theatre Cinema in the heritage city of Bath, UK on November 13.
The film is being promoted as an extravagant update of the Frankenstein story, featuring the greatest talents India has to offer like Rajinikanth, Aishwarya Rai and AR Rahman.
Bath Film Festival was established in 1991 by members of Bath Film Society, other Bath-based cinema fans and the then 3 commercial city cinemas there.

From Box Office India:
New Releases Open To Disastrous Response
Friday 29th October 2010 11.30 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
There were three new Hindi releases this week in Daayen Ya Baahen, Maalik Ek and Nakshatra and as expected they opened to empty houses. The turnout was 1-2% with Nakshatra having the best release.
Jhootha Hi Sahi is likely to remain the leader at multiplexes in its second week even though its business is poor as there is no competition. Single screens will be giving Rakht Charitra and Hisss another week's run as there is nothing to replace them.
Robot (Hindi) is the only bright spot which is continuing with steady collections though on the lower side.
As usual the pre-Diwali week is likely to be one of the worst of the year in terms of the total volume of business of all films showing.
To you-know-who's attention.

2010-Oct-29
எந்திரனின் உலகளாவிய வெற்றி நாம் எதிர்பார்த்தது போல உள்ளூர் சில்லறைகளுக்கு தாங்க முடியா வயித்தெரிச்சலை தந்துள்ளது.
இரு வேறு சிறுகதை எழுத்தாளர்கள் தங்கள் பெயரை பிரபல படுத்துவதற்காக எந்திரன் கதைக்கு உரிமை கொண்டாட ஆரம்பித்துள்ளனர். வரிசையில் இன்னும் சில ஜந்துக்கள் காத்து இருப்பதாக தகவல்.
எது எப்படியோ .. இப்படியாவது அவர்கள் பெயர்களை தமிழ் கூறும் நல்லுலகம் நினைவு கூர்ந்தால் நலம். இந்த நேரத்தில் 'காமடி கிங்' கவுண்டமணியின் டயலாக்கான 'நாராயண.. இந்த கொசு தொல்ல தாங்க முடியல டா' நினைவிற்கு வருவதை ஏனோ தவிர்க்க முடியவில்லை.
இந்நிலையில், மும்பையில் நடை பெற்ற 12-வது திரைப்பட விழா நேற்று நிறைவுபெற்றது. இந்த விழாவில் 'எந்திரன்' திரைப்படமும் திரை இடப்பட்டது. இத்திரை படத்தை பார்த்த ஹாலிவுட் மற்றும் உலகெங்கும் இருந்த கலைஞர்கள் 'ஏந்திரனை' மனம் திறந்து பாராட்டி உள்ளனர்.
மூன்று முறை ஆஸ்கார் விருது பெற்ற திரு. ஒலிவர் ஸ்டோன் பேசும்போது "இன்று எந்திரன் திரைபடம் பார்த்தேன்.. மிகவும் ரசித்து பார்த்தேன்.. இது முழுக்க முழுக்க ஒரிஜினல் கதை... மிகவும் புதுமையாக இருந்தது.. ஐ என்ஜாய்ட் இட்' என்று மனம் திறந்து பாராட்டி உள்ளார்.
எந்திரன் ஒரு சர்வதேச திரை படம் என்பதற்கு இது ஒரு சாம்பிள் தான்.....

no wonder hollywood guys enjoyed it.
offlate their scifi films have become somewhat stale and the robot franchise has been milked as per holywood sensibilities in variety of ways. An indian perspective using local idioms - is definitely new. One has to really appreciate shankar for trying to do this.

My favorite of the 3 characters was the Good Chitti! I think it's mainly got to do with the timing in the movie and the feel-good nature of it. Agreed, the Bad Chitti was amazing in performance, but there was an emotional quotient to the good Chitti in a number of situations that made me fall for that character! Originally Posted by jaiganes

What P_R has said is correct. Saying he's been AWOL for last twenty years is like dismissing all his films completely. According to me, Rajini is at his stylist/coolest best when he keeps to minimal gestures. In this language of 'style'. One must completely lose the notion of style. The star persona shouldn't exude excessively, through gimmicks or overt gestures and just be itself. Therefore, IMO, films like Johnny features Rajini at his most stylish. And in last twenty years, Annamali taps into this, the slow-mo sequence when Rajni becomes the chairman, replacing Suresh Babu. The BGM, camera angle, frame rate, lighting, etc are eclectic and well appropriated to "observe" Rajini taking the seat, leaving out a huge puff of smoke. Well done Suresh Krishna for capturing one of the most stylish sequences ever.

ஒரே படத்தில் வசி, சிட்டி 1.0, சிட்டி 2.0 என முப்பரிமாணத்தில் ரஜினி நிறப்பிரிகையாக ஜொலிக்கிறார் எந்திரனில்.

As cm123 also noted, the non-verbal moments (like in Annamalai) always makes the "star" for me (not just Rajini, but also NT, Mifune, Eastwood, DDL, Deloin, Mohanlal, Kamal, Bachchan, etc). Originally Posted by Poornima

Btw, Aval Appadithaan is well worth bringing up, Poornima. The predominant style of early Kamal and early Rajini is captured best here. The kind of performances that KB often tried to draw in early b/w films, but never to the effect of AA. The walk, body movement, turns, hand gestures, etc including the cigarette props had Rajini render a dynamic/vibrant character, while Kamal is mostly fixated without much motility that fits with the character's inner predicament (that doesn't reside in foreground), that not only etched out their respective characters but the kind of stars they were. The latter's laidback self-contemplation (to the point of overarching self-effacement) vis-a-vis the former's immediate reassurance (bordering on a pleasurable hubris - that makes him an enjoyable villain!) were early Kamal-Rajini for me! These differences along with certain other similarities were a perfect combination. I crave for such contrasting star duos. Except for brief glimpses of Karthik-Prabhu (under Mani) and Vikram-Surya (under Bala), we haven't had such titillation. Of course, I'm not naive enough to look for the magnitude of R-K !

Nerd, nothing to say, actually. In all three roles, there were moments and glimpses of Rajini that I'd like to see but I found all 3 performances inconsistent. As for Shankar touches (actually well-painted SAC touches), they were expectedly there throughout. And I am not the right person to comment on grandeur, photography, graphics, set design etc.
I refuse to buy that this is 100 percent of Rajini's capacity as an actor. And since there was no other aspect of the film that drew me to watch it in the first place, it was a massive disappointment.
And yes, sangoodhara vayasula sangeedha, indeed.
-
From: Plum on 31st October 2010 09:33 AM [Full View]
Voted No because endhiran offers nothing new in terms of Rajini's acting skill, whichever way you look at it.
Strongly object to people saying Shankar has given an opportunity to Rajini to showcase his skills. Quite a few including in this thread have taken the line that Shankar has extracted the best of Rajini in this movie.
I agree with many when they say this is a Shankar movie with Rajini in it but I don't mean it in the same complimentary manner.
Shankar - well I take that back since he was just being himself

In Film industry, distributor’s share seems to be used as a yard stick to categorize whether the movie is hit/flop. In AP, they always report distributor's share of any movie. AFAIK, the entertainment tax for dubbing and original Telugu movies in AP are 20% and 12% respectively. Since the movie had already earned more than 30C for distributors, IMO, the gross could be more than 55-60C, it depends up on the financial model the distributors deals with. To confirm the aforesaid amount, many online portals had already reported the gross collection of 60C. I just run few scenarios to know what would be the gross and net collection in AP.
Scenario 1:
If assumed distributor share is about 65%, the net collection would be 46.9C and gross would be 58.7C
Scenario 2:
If assumed distributor share is about 60%, the net collection would be 50.8C and gross would be 63.5C
Scenario 3:
If assumed distributor share is about 55%, the net collection would be 55.5C and gross would be 69.3C
Scenario 4:
If assumed distributor share is about 50%, the net collection would be 61.0C and gross would be 76.3C
So the less % of distributors share produces more gross and net collection. As I said earlier, the distributor’s share is unknown factor here. The one of the reasons of reduction in reported distributors share every week is reduction in % of distributor’s share as per financial model.

Amid all the first half attempts to establish suppAndi(as feeyar put it) nature of robo, one vaseegaran moment stood out for me.
SVS: women-ku yArAvadhu shaving set gift kuduppAngaLA?
Vasi: ahn use aagumnu nenaichEn
Rajini's completely innocent expression takes away from the VAM-ness of the dialogue but kind of gives a clue to vaseegaran.

Director Mysskin bared his heart out at the Seventh International film festival, organized by Manickam Narayanan of Seventh Channel.
At the event, popular writer and novelist Charu Nivedita said that Rajinikanth should stop doing films like Enthiran, and play his age. The chief guest at the occasion was director Mysskin who was also brutally frank about the plight of Tamil cinema.
Mysskin said that he has also succumbed to the lure of commercial cinema, and has made "B-grade films like Chitiram Pesuthadi and Anjaathey , pandering to the box-office. Sadly the best film I ever made, straight from the heart Nandalala has no takers."
Mysskin also pointed out the influence of Rajinikanth and his mass masala. . Mysskin ruefully said: "My own family would prefer to see a Rajinikanth film than my own film. They will not say that they would like to see a meaningful film."

One more cheap article from Boxofficeindia.com.....
Endhiran - The Robot Expected Lifetime Business
Monday 1st November 2010 12.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Endhiran (Tamil) has set the box office on fire in the South and Overseas. The Hindi version Robot managed average business in circuits like Mumbai and CP Berar but flopped in Delhi, Punjab and Bengal. The approx expected lifetime figures for the film are as follows.
Endhiran (Tamil)
Distributor Share - 90 crore
Nett - 125 crore
Gross - 130 crore
Robo (Telugu)
Distributor Share - 25 crore
Nett - 40 crore
Gross - 43 crore
Robot (Hindi)
Distributor Share - 10 crore
Nett - 21.50 crore
Gross - 29 crore
The combined totals will be 125 crore distributor share (record for Indian film), 186.50 crore nett and 202 crore gross.
Endhiran (Tamil) will do $11m (49 crore) overseas with $5.5 million from Far East, $2.5 from North America, $1.5 million from Middle East and $1.5 million from the rest of the world.
The Hindi and Telugu versions of Endhiran will add another $1m from overseas.
The final worldwide gross total of all versions of the film will be INR 255.50 crore ($57.5 million). Worldwide they are the second highest figures ever for an Indian film after Three Idiots which did INR 339.50 crore ($74.5 million). Dabangg released earlier this year is third as it grossed INR 212 crore ($47 million). Three Idiots was released on 1800 prints worldwide, Dabangg was 2000 prints while the Tamil, Telugu and Hindi versions of Endhiran had a combined total of 2500 prints worldwide.
The only black spot for the film was the Hindi version which accounted for 800 prints but did not give a return like the other versions. In India Robot (Hindi) was 750 prints which was far too much as dubbed films do not have a big market. Last year the dubbed version of 2012 (Pralay Ki Shuruaat) was released on just 400 prints and grossed 28 crore nett and remains the highest grossing dubbed film. Robot (Hindi) is second on the list of dubbed films but release was more like outright Hindi film rather than a dubbed film.

Rajinikant Robot/Endhiran Sets New Records in Andhra Pradesh
http://telugu.16reels.com/news/movie...a-Pradesh.aspx
Rajinikanth, Aishwarya Rai Starrer ‘Robot/Endhiran’ has already smashed many records at the Indian Box Office and is now the highest grosser in the History of Indian Cinema. The film, directed by maverick Shankar, is still creating sensations. Breaking the barriers of a dubbed film, it is performing extremely well just like a straight film. Of all releases of the year (in Tollywood), ‘Robot’ is the only film that has kept the momentum at the box office right from the day one of its release. It is now heading towards creating of new records.
Recent reports said that the Telugu version of ‘Robot/Endhiran’ had already surpassed Balakrishna starrer ‘Simha’ (the biggest hit of the year till now) in terms of collections. The film has already collected over 30 crores in Andhra Pradesh and still running with packed houses. The latest reports say that the film is now nearing the collections of ‘Magadheera’ in Nizam Area. It has now set the record as the second biggest hit in Nizam Area. It is estimated that the film would collect a whopping 18 crore in the region. And if the same momentum continues, more wonders are expected.
Another amazing fact is that that there have been three big releases in Tollywood after ‘Robot’ had hit the screens, but none could put a check on the collections of ‘Robot.’
On the other hand, Hollywood Director Oliver Stone watched the special screening of the film in Mumbai. He showered praises on director Shankar saying that he had made this film with his own ideas.

He has made one good film and one bad film. Even in that one good film his writing leaves a lot to be desired. And the acting in his films is uniformly bad, I mean worse than Rajini's acting in Chandramukhi. He is not a 'Mahendran' or even a 'Bala' to comment. He is just two (just half, in my books) films old for God's sakes. Let him prove with an 'A' grade film and then we can listen to him talk. Originally Posted by jaiganes

So obviously BoI figures are rubbish!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1305797/
There is no way I am going to accept BoI’s figures over IMDB for US figures.
and 1.5 mn from rest of the world? When the UK figures alone are 1.5 mn as of 22nd OCT?
Similarly, it shows andhra DS as 25 crores, when the andhraBoxOffice site shows 30.5 crores share after 4 weeks. Now Andhra Box Office site will not try to hype up Rajini over Mahesh Babu or NTR Jr for sure.
http://www.andhraboxoffice.com.....#038;fid=1
It should be clear that BoI is trying to run down Endhiran from Day 1.
When asked about which is the bigger hit Gadar or 3 Idiots it says Gadar based on DS. The yearly ranking of films across decades is done on the basis of Net, with DS mentioned in brackets.Now suddenly it starts talking of grosses. All this just to confuse and deny Endhiran its righful place as the blockbuster of Indian cinema.

I don't think there is something called meaningful cinema, apart from documentaries where they try to preach something. I don't think directors like Mysskin are trying to make documentaries. Their movies may work for some, may not work for others. I don't think it is proper to say that they have lowly taste in movies. Originally Posted by jaiganes

Obviously, ranting at Endhiran is not a rational response to that. But it is a genuine concern. There are no clear answers to that - things are obviously not going to change if just Rajini stops doing Endhirans(which he doesnt need to). And we all know what happened when Rajini cut down on his assignments - we started getting thirupachis, singams and gillis as cheap substitutes. The fundamental problem is elsewhere - and I dont know where.
Upto a few months back, the multiplex culture in Hindi was touted to be a viable alternative but it does seem like that has stagnated, too, and the multiplex market has its own rules and cliches, safe and unsafe subjects for a multiplex movie and viability ratios.
To me, the 80's in Hindi Alternate and Malayalam Mainstream represent the best marriage of commerce and art. That seems like a guerilla movement made possible by specific individuals at specific times. Any system, by definition, is probably going to stifle such movements.
So, in my book, the only solution is an alternate cinema messiah appearing and converting the populace.

And like I mentioned elsewhere, none, I repeat none of the art films (films which received wide critical reception) have failed in the last 3-4 years.

You can't expect wannabes (according to the critics again) like Kunguma poo, aval peyar thamizharasi to become hits. Period.

@Plum - rajini did less movies so we got thirupaachis and gillis is a "sappai" argument - Rationale simply doesnt exist. I can counter argue that years of Rajini in masala mould have clouded, made our taste buds blunt to such crappy masala as Thirupachi. The truth certainly encompasses all of the above and some thing else too - which we have to decipher. OR probably as Thamizhans we are capable of nothing better - avvalavu dhaan namma taste - lets throw all the efforts to bin and rejoice in the muk.

I like Venkki's explanation but,
If Chitti can dismantle himself(final scene, dismantling his head in the ladies hostel), chances are that he could reassemble himself. And the kai kaal etc don't matter, its the CPU which matters. And Vasee apparently underestimates his own creation. Originally Posted by PARAMASHIVAN

//Tech Digg
Robot is disassembled.
Now, its head, which is mostly the MAIN CPU can communicate with its hand, leg chest and other pieces, assuming each one has a battery, CPU and a Wi-Fi(or some wireless) module.
They can even broadcast their exact location, ie, how far they are from the CPU module, in which direction/orientation they are lying - All this possible with a combination of A-GPS, Gyroscope, and accelerometer.
But what is not possible is each part traveling or reaching the CPU/other modules and getting themselves attached perfectly.
Even that is possible in one case - Maybe consider the very central part which is the chest_stomach assembly has inbuilt/hidden wheels which can move itself nearer to other parts and allow them get connected to itself. This part being the biggest, makes one think there is enuf space to hold a DC mortar and a big battery to power it
Ok, it self-assembled itself. Now even it walks to some pole and recharges itself, and by the time Bohra comes in and this robot silently walks and opens his "securely" locked car and seats itself! Evvalavo panniduchi, itha pannaathaa?!?

But when vasee chops chitti's head of with an axe, it was completley detached from the body (i.e no wires connected to the body).
Where was the CPU of the Chittie, in the head or in the chest ?

params, read above posts, btw, it re-assembled itself somehow but all wires are not connected. robot cannot solder each wire itself, illaya? so thatswhy it asks "help.. pannunga, professor"
Also, even tho wires are cut, CPU, battery, WiFi and GPS can we well a self-contained inside each module, requiring no wires. So those wires shud be for non-essential sensors, battery charging, etc

Made of aluminum and nickel-plated carbon fiber, the torso and arms are padded to protect Robonaut and the astronauts, all the way down to the five fingers on each hand. No metal, bony-looking fingers for this robot.
R2's eyes are where they should be: in its gold-colored head. Four visible light cameras are located behind the robot's visor, and an infrared camera is in its mouth for depth perception.
But its brain is in its tummy; engineers had nowhere else to put the computerized gray matter
The beauty of Robonaut, officials say, is it's strong yet safe and trustworthy enough to work right next to humans. Think good Autobots rather than evil Decepticons from "Transformers." It's also serenely mute, more WALL-E than R2-D2 of "Star Wars" fame.
Discovery's astronaut-physician, Michael Barratt, would have loved to pawn off toilet cleaning while living at the space station last year. As appealing as Robonaut is, he cautions "it will be a long time" before the robot can do a job as quickly and efficiently as a space station human.
Robonaut's strength, Barratt said, will be emergencies.
"Going into a toxic atmosphere to throw a switch or close a valve," he explained.

Mind you, not the heavy duty Rajini that I am fond of, the Rajini of Mullum Malarum, Johnny, Aarilirunthu Arubathu Varai, Dharmadurai or Talabathi, but much simpler but effective Rajini of Netrikann, Mundru Mugam, Muthu, and to an extend, to me, Baba.

His enthusiasm, if onscreen performance is an indicator, and they usually are, has been lesser and lesser since, maybe, after Baba. He looked tired in Chandramukhi, not helped by poor direction, and though seemed a bit chirpy in Sivaji the Boss, he was not giving his 60%, let alone 100%. Here, it may not be 100%, but certainly more than 60%. Oh man, how convincing he was whenever Vasee berates Chitti, losing his head the only way Rajini can being the only actor, next to Kamal, who can hit the rage-ometer as high as Sivaji Ganesan. When Chitti becomes evil, he totally leaves behind the subtle persona and you can see he is having a ball of a time, being such total badass that I think this is the best villain I had the pleasure enjoy watching since Amaithi Padai. Plus the funny scenes between Rajini and Rajini. Only Rajini can pull it off. In fact, the best chemistry in this film is actually between the scientist and the robot, so much so that the final scene actually would move you. Other actors except Kamal thinking of doing double or triple roles, think again. Rajini the actor is still around. Yes sir. He looks really good here, maybe a good 18 years younger than his actual age (60), and Chitti will be up there amongst the most memorable characters he played, next to Chakravarthi, Alex Pandiyan and slightly above Annamalai and Baasha."

If there's not enough compelling content, the whole market can fall & every one suffers - just like the early 90s when a lot of theatres started converting into shopping complexes.
Even when derided as 'mass', the surpluses generated by movies like enthiran can sustain a lot of 'Angadi Theru's ...

சன் - கலைஞர்: இரண்டிலுமே 'ரஜினி தீபாவளி'!
http://thatstamil.oneindia.in/movies...ar-diwali.html
வெளியாகி 1 மாதத்தைக் கடந்த பின்னும் திரையரங்குகளில் திருவிழாக் கோலம் காண்கிறது ரஜினியின் எந்திரன்.
அடுத்து சின்னத்திரையிலும் அவரது ஸ்பெஷல் நிகழ்ச்சிகள், திரைப்படங்கள் தொடர்கின்றன. குறிப்பாக இந்த தீபாவளி, 'ரஜினி தீபாவளி' எனும் அளவுக்கு ரஜினி படங்கள் மற்றும் நிகழ்ச்சிகள்தான்.
தொலைக்காட்சியுலகின் முக்கிய சேனல்களான சன் மற்றும் கலைஞர் இரண்டிலும் ரஜினி ஸ்பெஷல்தான். ரசிகர்களை வேறு சேனல் பக்கமே திரும்பவிடாத அளவுக்கு அதிரடி நிகழ்ச்சிகள் மற்றும் படத்தை இந்த சேனல்கள் ஒளிபரப்புகின்றன.
சன் டிவியில் 'மேக்கிங் ஆப் எந்திரன்' என்ற சிறப்பு நிகழ்ச்சி வெள்ளிக்கிழமை மாலை 6 மணிக்கு ஒளிபரப்புகிறது. எந்திரன் திரைப்படம் உருவான விதம், அதில் ரஜினி ரோபோவாக எப்படி நடித்தார், அதில் உபயோகிக்கப்பட்ட அனிமேட்ரானிக்ஸ் மற்றும் ரோபோடிக்ஸ் தொழில்நுட்பங்கள் ஆகியவற்றை காட்டப் போகிறார்கள்.
குறிப்பாக, 'ரயில் சண்டைக் காட்சியில் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டது டூப் இல்லை, தண்டவாளத்தின் மீதும், ரயில் வண்டியின் மீதும் ஒடுவது, சண்டை போடுவது எல்லாமே வேறு ஸ்டன்ட் நடிகர் அல்ல, ரஜினியே' என்பதை விவரமாகக் காட்டப் போவதாக சன் டிவி தரப்பு தெரிவித்துள்ளது.
இந்த நிகழ்ச்சிக்குப் போட்டியாக மாலை 5.30 மணிக்கே கலைஞர் டிவியில் ரஜினியின் சூப்பர் டூப்பர் ஹிட் படமான சிவாஜி - தி பாஸ் படத்தை ஒளிபரப்புகிறார்கள்.
உலக அளவில் இந்தியப் படங்களின் மார்க்கெட்டை புதுப்பித்துக் கொடுத்த பெருமை சிவாஜிக்கே உண்டு. மிகச் சிறந்த பொழுதுபோக்குப் படம் என்று பாராட்டப்பட்டது. ரஜினிக்கு பிரதமர் கையால் விருது வாங்கிக் கொடுத்த படம். இந்த நிகழ்ச்சிகளுக்கு முன்னும் பின்னும் மற்ற சேனல்களும் ரஜினி பற்றிய நிகழ்ச்சிகள் மற்றும் திரைப்படங்களை ஒளிபரப்புகிறார்கள்.

Telugu Robot has created a new record
http://rajinifans.com/latest_news_detail.html?rId=1533
Till date, the Nandamuri fans have been pumping their fists in the air and were all excited that the film ‘Simha’ was the biggest grosser for the year 2010. However, their happiness is short-lived. The reason for that is superstar Rajinikanth and his dubbed magnum opus which has created a new record.
Reports from the box office say that Rajini’s ‘Robot’ has amassed a whopping Rs 30 crores within four weeks of its release and the collections are still steady. This means that the film has gone past the full time collections of ‘Simha’. Though dubbed movies have higher taxes still ‘Robot’ has made strong collections.
Going forward, there is ‘Orange’ and ‘Ragada’ in the pipeline. If both of them don’t create a magic then it must be admitted that the biggest blockbuster of the year 2010 is the dubbed Tamil flick ‘Robot’!!!

Rajini’s Deepavali in small screens
http://rajinifans.com/latest_news_detail.html?rId=1534
பெரிய திரையோ சின்னத் திரையோ… ரஜினி தோன்றினால் அது எந்த நாளும் தீபாவளிதான் என்பது நடைமுறை உண்மை.
1995-ம் ஆண்டு…. ‘தூர்தர்ஷனில் தலைவர் ரஜினியின் பேட்டி’ என்ற தகவல் ஜஸ்ட் வாய்மொழியாகத்தான் பரவியது. ஆனால் பேட்டி ஒளிபரப்பான தினம், குறிப்பாக அந்த ஒருமணிநேரம், அறிவிக்கப்படாத பந்த் போல, நகரெங்கும் அத்தனை அமைதி!
அதன் பிறகு, இதே போன்றதொரு அனுபவம் கிடைத்தது ரஜினியின்’ ஆக்ஷன் கிளாஸிக்’ பாட்ஷா சன் டிவியில் ஒளிபரப்பான போது!
சந்திரமுகியை தொலைக்காட்சியில் ஒளிபரப்பியபோது, பட்டாசு வெடிச் சத்தமே அடியோடு குறைந்துபோனதாக சிஃபியில் ஸ்ரீதர் பிள்ளை குறிப்பிட்டிருந்தார்!
இதோ… மீண்டும் தீபாவளி… இதுவும் ரஜினி தீபாவளிதான்.
தொலைக்காட்சியுலகின் முக்கிய சேனல்களான சன் மற்றும் கலைஞர் இரண்டிலும் ரஜினி ஸ்பெஷல்தான். ரசிகர்களை வேறு சேனல் பக்கமே திரும்பவிடாத அளவுக்கு ரஜினி ஸ்பெஷலாக அதிரடி நிகழ்ச்சிகள் மற்றும் படத்தை இந்த சேனல்கள் ஒளிபரப்புகின்றன.
சன் டிவியில் ‘மேக்கிங் ஆப் எந்திரன்’ என்ற சிறப்பு நிகழ்ச்சி வெள்ளிக்கிழமை மாலை 6 மணிக்கு ஒளிபரப்புகிறது. எந்திரன் திரைப்படம் உருவான விதம், அதில் ரஜினி ரோபோவாக எப்படி நடித்தார், அதில் உபயோகிக்கப்பட்ட அனிமேட்ரானிக்ஸ் மற்றும் ரோபோடிக்ஸ் தொழில்நுட்பங்கள் ஆகியவற்றை காட்டப் போகிறார்கள்.
குறிப்பாக ரயில் சண்டைக் காட்சியில் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டது டூப் இல்லை, தண்டவாளத்தின் மீதும், ரயில் வண்டியின் மீதும் ஒடுவது, சண்டை போடுவது எல்லாமே வேறு ஸ்டன்ட் நடிகர் அல்ல, ரஜினியே என்பதை விவரமாகக் காட்டப் போகிறார்கள்.
இந்த நிகழ்ச்சிக்குப் போட்டியாக மாலை 5.30 மணிக்கே கலைஞர் டிவியில் ரஜினியின் சூப்பர் டூப்பர் ஹிட் படமான சிவாஜி – தி பாஸ் படத்தை ஒளிபரப்புகிறார்கள்.
உலக அளவில் இந்தியப் படங்களின் மார்க்கெட்டை புதுப்பித்துக் கொடுத்த பெருமை சிவாஜிக்கே உண்டு. மிகச் சிறந்த பொழுதுபோக்குப் படம் என்று பாராட்டப்பட்டது. தேசிய விருதுகள் உள்ளிட்ட பல விருதுகளைக் குவித்தது. ரஜினிக்கு பிரதமர் கையால் விருது வாங்கிக் கொடுத்த படம்.
இயக்குநர்கள் சங்க 40-ம் ஆண்டு விழாவில் கேபிக்கு தலைவர் கொடுத்த கலக்கலான பேட்டி எப்போது வெளியாகும் என்பதை சன் டிவி இன்னும் அறிவிக்கவில்லை.
ரஜினி சிறப்புப் பேட்டி!
இந்த நிகழ்ச்சிகளுக்கு சிகரம் வைத்தது போல ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது ரஜினியின் சிறப்புப் பேட்டி சன் டிவியில். எந்திரன் அனுபவங்கள், அதன் வெற்றிக்குப் பிந்தைய திட்டங்கள் என ரஜினி தரும் பரபரப்பான பேட்டியாக இது அமையப் போகிறது.
இந்த நிகழ்ச்சிகளுக்கு முன்னும் பின்னும் மற்ற சேனல்களும் ரஜினி பற்றிய நிகழ்ச்சிகள் மற்றும் திரைப்படங்களை ஒளிபரப்புகிறார்கள்.
சுருக்கமாக சொன்னால், இந்த தீபாவளிக்கு, பெரிய திரை – சின்னத்திரை இரண்டிலுமே ‘பாக்ஸ் ஆபீஸ் மொகல்’ ஆக ஆதிக்கம் செலுத்துபவர் ரஜினிதான்!
Advance Happy Deepavali… Get ready folks!

பாலிவுட்டை நொறுக்கிய எந்திரன்!

எந்திரன் படம் நான் எதிர்பார்த்ததை விட பல மடங்கு அதிகமாக வெற்றி பெற்று இருக்கிறது. இதில் ரஜினி ரசிகனாக சந்தோசமாக இருந்தாலும் ஒரு தமிழனாக அதை விட அதிக சந்தோசம் அது பற்றிய பதிவே இது.
இந்தியன் என்பதில் பெருமிதம் கொள்வோம்! என்று அனைவரும் கூறினாலும் அது மற்ற நாட்டுடன் போட்டி என்று வரும்போது மட்டுமே என்னைப்போன்றவர்களுக்கு செல்லுபடியாகிறது. அதே மாநிலம், மாவட்டம், நகரம் அதில் கிராமம், வார்டு என்று சென்று சென்று கடைசிவரை நம் அணி என்று வரும் போது அதற்கு ஆதரவு கொடுக்கும் சராசரி குடிமகன் நான். எதுக்குப்பா! போட்டி எல்லாம்.. நம்மவர்கள் தானே! இதில் வெற்றி பெற்றால் என்ன தோற்றால் என்ன! என்று நினைக்கும் அளவிற்கு நான் ரொம்ப நல்லவன் கிடையாது. அப்படிப்பட்ட நல்லவர்களாக நீங்கள் இருந்தால் இதோட நிறுத்திட்டு வேற ஏதாவது படிக்கப்போகலாம்.
எனக்கு பொதுவா வட இந்தியர்களை சுத்தமாக பிடிக்கவே பிடிக்காது (வழக்கம்போல ஒரு சில விதிவிலக்குகள் இருக்கலாம் ஆனால் அது மிகக்குறைவு) காரணம் அவர்களுக்கு தென் இந்தியர்கள் என்றாலே ஒரு இளக்காரமான எண்ணம் தான். நம்மை மதிக்கவே யோசிப்பார்கள் கேலியும் கிண்டலுமாகத் தான் பேசுவார்கள். நான் பணி செய்த இடங்களில் அனுபவப்பூர்வமாக உணர்ந்து இருக்கிறேன். இது பற்றி விரிவாக இன்னொரு பதிவில் கூறுகிறேன். அதனாலே எப்போதெல்லாம் நாம் அவர்களை விட உயர்ந்து நிற்கிறோமோ அந்த சமயங்களில் எல்லாம் எனக்கு மிகவும் சந்தோசமாக இருக்கும்.
இந்தியாவில் திரைப்படங்கள் என்றால் முன்னணியில் இருப்பது ஹிந்தி, தமிழ் மற்றும் தெலுங்கு படங்கள் தான் மற்ற படங்கள் எல்லாம் இதற்குப்பிறகு தான். வெளிநாடுகளிலும் இதற்கே அதிக வரவேற்ப்பு. இருப்பினும் இந்தியா என்றாலே பாலிவுட் தான் என்ற மாயையை வட இந்தியர்கள் தங்கள் ஊடகங்களால் உருவாக்கி விட்டார்கள். பெரும்பாலான வெளிநாட்டு மக்களும் இந்தியா என்றால் அது பாலிவுட் என்றே கருதிக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறார்கள் ஆனால் அவர்களைக் கூறி தவறில்லை அவர்களுக்கு இந்தியாவில் இத்தனை மொழிகள் அதில் இத்தனைப்படங்கள் வருகிறது என்பதை அறியாதவர்கள். அதனால் ஊடகங்கள் பிரபலமாக்கிய பாலிவுட்டை இந்திய திரைப்படங்களின் அடையாளமாக நினைத்துக்கொண்டுள்ளார்கள். இந்தியப்படங்கள் என்றால் அது அமிதாப் ஷாருக் கான் அமீர் கான் சல்மான் கான் சயிப்அலி கான் என்று கான்களைத்தான் நடிகர்களாக நினைத்துக்கொண்டுள்ளார்கள்.
ரஜினி கமல் படம் நன்றாக ஓடுகிறது என்றாலும் ஹிந்திப் படங்களுடன் ஒப்பிடும் போது வரவேற்புக் குறைவு தான் காரணம் இந்தியாவில் தமிழ் பேசுபவர்கள் குறைவு ஆனால் ஹிந்தியின் வீச்சு அதிகம். எனவே ரஜினி கமல் படங்கள் இந்தியாவில் வெளியானால் அது தமிழ்நாட்டில் மட்டும் ஓட முடியும் அதிகபட்சமாக தென் மாநிலங்கள் ஆனால் ஹிந்திப் படங்களுக்கு அப்படி இல்லை இந்தியா முழுவதும் வரவேற்பு உள்ளது. அதுவுமில்லாமல் வெளிநாடுகளிலும் ஹிந்திப்படங்கள் தான் இந்தியப்படங்கள் என்றாகி விட்டது. இதை விடக் கொடுமையாக இவர்கள் வருடாவருடம் துபாயில் நடத்தும் இந்தி(ய)த் திரைப்பட விழா. இந்தியத் திரைப்பட விழா என்று கூறி விட்டு தென் மாநில படங்களை ஒட்டு மொத்தமாகப் புறக்கணிப்பார்கள்.
ஹிந்தியில் நல்ல படங்கள் வருகிறது இல்லை என்று கூறவில்லை அதற்கு சற்றும் சளைக்காமல் தென் இந்தியாவிலும் நல்லப் படங்கள் வந்துகொண்டு தான் இருக்கின்றன. இங்கே அவர்கள் கிண்டலடிக்கும் படி படங்கள் வந்தாலும் அதையும் மீறி பல நல்லப் படங்கள் வந்துகொண்டு தான் இருக்கின்றன. இவர்கள் என்னவோ ஒழுங்கு போல பேசிக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறார்கள் அவர்களிலும் பல குப்பை படங்களை தயாரித்துக்கொண்டு இருக்கின்றனர். இவர்கள் படத்தை பார்த்தால் வெளிநாட்டில் உள்ளவர்கள் இந்தியாவில் தேனாறும் பாலாறும் ஓடுவதாக நினைத்துக்கொள்வார்கள் அந்த அளவிற்கு இவர்களது படங்கள் இருக்கும். இந்தியப்படங்கள் என்று கூறி விட்டு படம் முழுவதையும் வெளிநாட்டில் எடுத்து இருப்பார்கள். இதற்கு வெளிநாட்டில் சென்று விருது வேறு அதுவும் நமது படங்களை புறக்கணித்து. இதை ஒருமுறை விருந்தினராக சென்ற மம்முட்டி அவர்களை நாக்க புடுங்கற மாதிரி நறுக்குன்னு கேட்டார்.
இப்ப எல்லாவற்றிக்கும் சேர்த்து வைத்து அவர்கள் வாயை நவதால் பூட்டு போட்டு பூட்டி இருக்கிறது நமது தமிழகத்தின் எந்திரன். ஓவராக பேசியவர்கள் எல்லாம் வாயை இறுகக்கட்டிக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறார்கள். கான்களுக்கு எல்லாம் புகைந்து கொண்டு இருக்கிறது. தென் இந்தியாவை கிண்டலடிக்கும் வட இந்திய ஊடகங்கள் போட்டிபோட்டுக்கொண்டு எந்திரனைப் பற்றி செய்திகளாகவும் டாக்குமென்ட்டரியாகவும் போட்டுத் தாக்கிக்கொண்டுள்ளன. இந்தியாவின் அதிகபட்ச வசூலை எடுத்த 3 இடியட்ஸ் மற்றும் டபாங் படங்களை அசால்ட்டாக பின் தள்ளியிருக்கிறது ஒரு மாநில மொழிப் படமான எந்திரன்.
இதுவரை இந்தியப்படம் என்றால் அது பாலிவுட் படம் தான் என்று நினைத்துக்கொண்டு இருந்த பல வெளிநாட்டுக்காரர்கள் தமிழ்ப்படம் என்று ஒரு மாநில மொழிப் படமும் உள்ளது என்று தெரிந்துகொண்டுள்ளார்கள். பல நாடுகளில் எந்திரன் பற்றிய சிறப்புக் கட்டுரைகள் வெளி வந்துள்ளன. இது பற்றி கூற வேண்டும் என்றாலே ஒரு தனி இடுகை எழுத வேண்டும்.
தென் இந்திய ஊடகங்கள் பல சன் டிவி மீதுள்ள கடுப்பிலும் ரஜினி மீதுள்ள தனிப்பட்ட காழ்ப்புணர்விலும் எந்திரனை பற்றி அவதூறான செய்திகளை கொடுத்தாலும் அது எந்த விதத்திலும் எந்திரனின் வெற்றியை பாதிக்கவில்லை. நான் கூட சன் டிவி படம் என்பதால் வட இந்திய ஊடகங்கள் எந்திரனைப் பற்றிய செய்திகளை புறக்கணிக்கும் என்று நினைத்து இருந்தேன் ஆனால் அதற்கு சம்பந்தமே இல்லாமல் போட்டிப்போட்டுக்கொண்டு எந்திரன் புகழ் பாடிக்கொண்டுள்ளன. நம்மை கிண்டலடிப்பவர்கள் வாயாலே நம் மாநிலப்படம் புகழப்படும் போதும் ரஜினி ரசிகன் என்பதைத்தாண்டி தமிழனாக எனக்கு அதிக சந்தோசம் என்பது சற்றும் மிகையல்ல.
வட இந்திய ஊடகங்கள் ரஜினியை தாறுமாறாக உயர்த்தி பேசுவதற்கு ஒரு முக்கிய காரணம் ரஜினியின் அடக்கம் மற்றும் அலப்பறை இல்லாத நடவடிக்கையாகும். வட இந்திய பெரிய திரை நாயகர்கள் ஊடகங்களிடம் பந்தாவுடனே நடந்து கொள்வார்கள். செய்தியாளர்களிடம் மரியாதைக்குறைவாக நடந்து கொண்டவர்கள் பலர் ஆனால் ரஜினியின் எளிமை வெளிப்படையான பேச்சு என்று பல விஷயங்கள் அவர்களுக்கு பாலிவுட் நடிகர்களை ஒப்பிடும் போது இவர்களுக்கு ஆச்சர்யமாகவே இருந்தது அதனுடன் படமும் மாபெரும் வெற்றி பெற்றதால் பாலிவுட்டே வயிறு எரியும் அளவிற்கு ஊடகங்கள் புகழ்ந்து விட்டார்கள். ரஜினியை கிண்டலடித்துக்கொண்டு இருந்த பலர் கூட எந்திரனுக்குப்பிறகு ரஜினியின் ரசிகர் ஆகி விட்டார்கள்.
இதைப்போல தமிழனின் பெருமையை தரணியெங்கும் உயர்த்திய எந்திரன் மேலும் பல வெற்றி பாராட்டுகள் பெற வாழ்த்துகிறேன். என்னதான் ரஜினி என்ற காந்தம் இருந்தாலும் எந்திரன் படம் மாபெரும் வெற்றி பெற சன் டிவி யும் ஷங்கரும் ஒரு முக்கிய காரணமாகும். சன் டிவி இல்லை என்றாலும் எந்திரன் வெற்றி பெற்று இருக்கும் என்றாலும் இந்த அளவிற்கு பெரிய வெற்றி அடைய சன் டிவி யும் ஒரு காரணமாகும். படத்திற்கு தமிழகம் தவிர்த்து மற்ற இடங்களிலும் சிறப்பாக மார்க்கெட்டிங் செய்தார்கள். ரஜினியின் புகழ் பெருமளவில் சென்றடைய இவர்களும் முக்கிய காரணம் என்பதை மறுக்க முடியாது. இதற்காக ஒரு ரஜினி ரசிகனாக சன் டிவி க்கு நன்றி தெரிவிக்கிறேன் (இவர்கள் மீது பல கோபங்கள் இருந்தாலும்)
எந்திரனை கிண்டலடிக்கும் நண்பர்களே! நீங்கள் கிண்டலடித்த, திட்டித்தீர்த்த படம் தமிழனின் பெருமையை பல நாடுகளில் பறை சாற்றியிருக்கிறது என்பதை உங்களுக்கு பிடிக்கின்றதோ இல்லையோ! நீங்கள் ஏற்றுக்கொள்வதைத் தவிர வேறு வழியில்லை. ரஜினி, சன் டிவி எதிர்ப்பு என்ற அளவில் யோசிக்காமல் ஒரு தமிழ்ப்படம் என்ற அளவில் பாருங்கள் பெருமையை உணர்வீர்கள். அதையும் மீறி ரஜினியை திட்டிக்கொண்டு இருப்பவர்கள் பின் வரும் ஜென் கதையை படியுங்கள். ரஜினி ஏன் பலர் ஏசும் போது அமைதியாக இருக்கிறார் என்று புரியும்.
ஜென் கதை (நன்றி http://www.tamilpaper.net)
ஒரு ஜென் துறவி இருந்தார் மல்யுத்தத்தில் கை தேர்ந்தவர்.
அதே ஊரில் இன்னொரு மல்யுத்த வீரரும் இருந்தார். அவர் பெரிய கோபக்காரர். யார் மேலாவது ஆத்திரம் வந்தால் அப்படியே தூக்கி வீசிவிடுவார். தினந்தோறும் யாரிடமாவது வம்புச் சண்டை போடாமல் அவருக்குத் தூக்கமே வராது.
இந்தக் கோபக்காரருக்கு நம்முடைய ஜென் துறவியைப் பார்த்துப் பொறாமை. ‘அந்த ஆள்கிட்டே என்ன இருக்கு? எல்லாரும் அவர் கால்ல போய் விழறீங்களே!’ என்று ஆதங்கப்பட்டார்.
அவர் எவ்வளவுதான் புலம்பினாலும், மக்கள் கேட்கவில்லை. துறவியைப் பார்க்க வருபவர்களின் கூட்டம் அதிகரித்துக்கொண்டே இருந்தது.
இதைப் பார்த்துக் கடுப்பான கோபக்காரர் துறவி வீட்டு வாசலில் போய் நின்றார். ‘நீ தைரியமான ஆளா இருந்தா வெளியே வா. என்னோட சண்டை போடு!’ என்று தொடை தட்டினார்.
துறவி மெல்லப் புன்னகை செய்தார். ஆனால் ஒரு வார்த்தைகூடப் பேசவில்லை.
அவரோடு இருந்த சிஷ்யர்களுக்கெல்லாம் ஆவேசம் பொங்கியது. ‘குருஜி, நீங்கதான் பெரிய மல்யுத்த வீரராச்சே. வெளியே போய் அந்தாளைப் போட்டுத் தள்ளிட்டு வாங்க!’ என்று அவரைத் தூண்டினார்கள்.
அப்போதும் துறவி இருந்த இடத்தைவிட்டு அசையவில்லை. அவர் பாட்டுக்குத் தியானத்தில் ஆழ்ந்துவிட்டார்.
கொஞ்ச நேரத்தில் வெளியே கத்திக்கொண்டிருந்த ஆளுக்குக் கத்திக் கத்தித் தொண்டை வற்றிவிட்டது. இனிமேல் சத்தம் போட்டுப் பிரயோஜனம் இல்லை என்று மூட்டையைக் கட்டிவிட்டார்.
இப்போது துறவி பேசினார். அதுவும் மூன்றே வார்த்தைகள். ‘எப்படி என் மல்யுத்தம்?’
அனைவருக்கும் இனிய தீபாவளி நல் வாழ்த்துகள்

Which Rajini character you like the most in Endhiran?
A poll from Rajnifans.com.......
All 3 Charecters 386 (9.8%)
Chitti 1 (Good Charecter) 1124 (28.5%)
Chitti 2 (Villain Charecter) 1114 (28.3%)
Chitti 1 & 2 187 (4.7%)
Scientist 1128 (28.6%)
Scientist was a very tricky and challenging character in the movie and the superstar pulls it off in style. Adakki Vassikkavum oru thiramai vendum....Banda Panaama , understanding the character and performing well... best fit for that character.....no other person could have pulled this off successfully. Vaseegaran was very nicely done...specially the muscles and nerves on his body reacting with envy and Jealousy whenever Chitti gets closer to Sana...is a treat too watch.
The other factor that voters liking all of these characters in equality (almost)....is the success of this movie...and this ensures repeat audiences.

உலகின் எட்டாவது அதிசயம்.. எவருக்கும் எட்டாத அதிசயம் - திருச்சி ரசிகர்களின் FDFS கொண்டாட்டங்கள் - எக்ஸ்க்ளூசிவ் புகை படங்கள்.
2010-Nov-03
பழனியை தொடர்ந்து இன்றைய நமது பார்வை திருச்சி.
சுருங்க சொல்லவேண்டுமெனில் - பிரமாண்டத்திற்கு மறு பெயர் திருச்சி.
அக்டோபர் 1, ஒட்டுமொத்த திருச்சியே ஸ்தம்பித்தது. ஒரு அரசியல் கட்சி மாநாட்டிற்கு கூட பொது மக்கள் இந்த அளவிற்கு இந்த அளவிற்கு ஆதரவு தருவார்களா என்பது சந்தேகம் தான்.
வெறுப்பு வெறுப்பு இன்றி எந்திரனை வரவேற்றனர் திருச்சி நகர பொது மக்கள்.
மேல தாளங்கள் முழங்க, யானை மீது படப்பெட்டி.. தீச்சட்டி ஏந்திய ரசிகர் கூட்டம்.. தலைவரின் கட் அவுட்டை அலங்கரிக்க சுமார் 20 பேர் சுமந்து வந்த பிரமாண்ட மலர் மாலை.. சிவகாசியே திருச்சிக்கு வந்த மாதிரி வான வேடிக்கை... நல திட்ட உதவிகள்.. அப்பப்பா.. இது தலைவர் ஒருவரால் மட்டுமே சாத்தியம்..
இந்த கொண்டாட்டத்தின் முக்கிய அம்சம்.. நடிகர் அஜீத் ரசிகர்களும் போட்டி போட்டுகொண்டு எந்திரனை வரவேற்று வாழ்த்து பேனர்களை வைத்தது தான்..
நகர் முழுக்க மின்னிய வாழ்த்து பேனர்களில் மின்னிய பொன்னெழுத்துக்களில் சில ..
"பிரம்மனே பிரமிக்கும் எந்திரன் .."
"கின்னசையே மிரட்டும் எந்திரன்.."
"பந்தாவின் பந்தா.. திரையுலகின் ஜிந்தா.."
"இமையம் போதும்.. இனி இயக்கம் வேண்டும்.."
"234 -லும் எந்திரனுக்கு வெற்றி.."
எப்படி எங்கும் எதிலும் எல்லா இடத்திலும் எந்திரன் மயம் தான்...
சும்மா சொல்ல கூடாது.. திருச்சி ஸ்ரீ ரஜினிகாந்த் தலைமை மன்ற நிர்வாகிகள் - தலைவருக்காக எதையும் செய்யும் தீவிர படை என்று நிரூபித்துவிட்டனர். வாழ்த்துக்கள் நண்பர்களே.
திருச்சி நகரில் இருந்து சில புகை படங்கள் உங்கள் பார்வைக்கு...

ரஜினியின் தீபாவளி சிறப்புப் பேட்டி!
http://thatstamil.oneindia.in/movies...ew-rajini.html
பொதுவாகவே மீடியாவுக்கு பேட்டிகள் கொடுப்பதைத் தவிர்ப்பவர் ரஜினி. அவர் ஏதேனும் நிகழ்ச்சியில் பங்கேற்க வரும்போது, தன்னைச் சூழ்ந்து கொள்ளும் மீடியாக்காரர்களுக்கு போகிற போக்கில் சில விஷயங்களைச் சொல்வதோடு சரி.
தனிப்பட்ட முறையில் பேட்டி என்பது ஆண்டுக்கு ஒரு முறை கூட வந்ததில்லை. இன்னொன்று, தான் சொல்ல நினைப்பதை பல மேடைகளில் பேசி விடுவதாலும் கூட பேட்டிகள் தராமல் இருக்கக் கூடும்.
ரஜினியின் முழு நீளப் பேட்டி இல்லையே என்ற குறையைத் தீர்க்கும் வகையில், சன் டிவியில் தீபாவளி நாளான நவம்பர் 5-ம் தேதி இரவு 9 மணிக்கு அவரது சிறப்புப் பேட்டி ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது.
இதில் தனது இளமைக்கால நினைவுகள், கண்டக்டராக இருந்தபோது நடந்த சுவையான நிகழ்வுகள், எந்திரன் அனுபவங்கள் என பல விஷயங்களை அவர் பகிர்ந்து கொள்கிறார்.
இதே சன் டிவியில் வெள்ளிக்கிழமை மாலை மேக்கிங் ஆப் எந்திரன் நிகழ்ச்சியும் ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது.

off late, started to follow telugu malayalam and Kannada forums for endhiran. People are very active like tamil forums in discussing endhiran movie and its box office performance. In some forums, it was RANAKALAM like HUB. The bottom line is People are so excited to see A SOUTH INDIAN MOVIE smashing indian BO records though few NI media denying those claims....

சன் தொலைக்காட்சியில் ஒளிபரப்பான, "எந்திரன் உருவான விதம்" நிகழ்ச்சி மலைக்க வைத்தது. டெக்னீஷியன்களின் விளக்கமும், ஷங்கரின் விவரிப்பும் தெளிவாக இருந்தன. குறிப்பாக குடியிருப்பு வளாகம் தீயில் எரியும் காட்சி படமாக்கப்பட்ட விதம், அத்ற்காக நிஜமான அடுக்குமாடி குடியிருப்புகளுக்கு மத்தியில் ஒரு டம்மி கட்டிடத்தையே உருவாக்கியிருந்த விதம், அதில் படப்பிடிப்பு நடந்தபோது ஏற்பட்ட சிரமங்கள் என அனைத்து விஷயங்களும் அருமை.
ஏ.ஆர்.ரகுமான், ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய், சாபு சிரில், ரசூல் பூக்குட்டி உள்பட அனைத்து, இந்திய மற்றும் வெளிநாட்டு டெக்னீஷியன்களின் பங்களிப்பும் அதைப்பற்றிய விவரிப்பும் நன்றாக இருந்தது. ரோபோவுக்கான மேக்கப்புக்காக ரஜினி சார் கொடுத்த ஒத்துழைப்பு அபாரம். சில இடங்களில் அவரது சிரமம் நம் மனதில் இரக்கத்தை ஏற்படுத்தியது.
அதுபோல அவர் டப்பிங் பேசுவதை இயற்கையாக காண்பித்ததும் மனதைக்கவர்ந்தது. (இது எல்லாப் படங்களிலும் உள்ளதுதான். இதில் நமக்கு விளக்கமாக காண்பித்தார்கள், அவ்வளவுதான்).
சுருக்கமாகச்சொன்னால், நேற்று பார்த்தது 'எந்திரனின் மறுபக்கம்' என்று சொல்லலாம்.

On a side note, I think Sun TV has some of the worst interviewers and Vijay TV some of the best...

Making of Endhiran - எந்திரன் மாதிரி இன்னொரு படம் சாத்தியம் இல்லை - சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினி.
2010-Nov-06
எந்திரனின் இமாலைய வெற்றிக்கு பின்னால் எவ்வளவு உழைப்பு இருக்கிறது என்பதை ரசிகர்கள் உட்பட பொதுமக்கள் அனைவரும் தெரிந்துகொள்ளவேண்டும் என்ற நோக்கத்துடன் எடுக்கப்பட்ட இந்த 'Making Of Endhiran' உண்மையில் தமிழ் திரை உலகம் மட்டுமல்ல, இந்திய திரை உலகத்திற்கும் கூட ஒரு புதுமையான முயற்சி. முதலில் ஷங்கருக்கு ரசிகர்கள் சார்பாக ஒரு மிக பெரிய நன்றி.
காதல் அணுக்கள் பாடலுக்கு தம்பிக்கு எந்த ஊரு படத்தில் வரும் ரஜினி ஒரு இன்ஸ்பரேஷன் என்று ஷங்கர் சொன்ன போது - ஆரம்ப நாட்களில் இருந்து ஷங்கர் எந்த அளவிற்கு தலைவரின் ரசிகனாக இருந்து இருக்கிறார் என்பதை உணர முடிகிறது..
தலைவர் எப்படி இன்றும் யாரும் அசைக்கமுடியாத சக்தியாக திகழ்கிறார் என்பதை ஒவ்வொரு காட்சியிலும் தலைவர் காட்டி இருக்கும் கடின உழைப்பே சான்று.
புனேவில் எடுக்கப்பட்ட ரயில் சண்டை காட்சியை பற்றி தலைவர் விவரித்தபோது நம் கண்களில் கண்ணீர். தலைவருக்கு ஒரு அன்பு வேண்டுகோள். இனி எக்காரணம் கொண்டும் நீங்கள் இப்படி பட்ட ரிஸ்க் காட்சிகளில் நடிக்ககூடாது. ஷங்கர் போன்ற இயக்குனர்களுக்கும் இதே வேண்டுகோள். ப்ளீஸ் யூஸ் டூப்ஸ். ரசிகர்களின் அன்பு கட்டளையாக கூட நீங்கள் இதை எடுத்து கொள்ளலாம்.
'வசீகரன் இங்கு தான் இருக்கிறான்' - என்று தலைவர் கர்ஜிக்கும் டப்பிங் காட்சிகள் அருமை. தலைவருடைய மந்திர குரல் மற்றும் டப்பிங் பேசும் காட்சிகளை முதன் முறையாக பார்த்தபொழுது நமக்குள் சிலிர்ப்பு.
கிளைமாக்ஸ் காட்சி குறித்த காட்சிகளை அமெரிக்க ஏர்போர்டில் தலைவரும், ஷங்கரும் விவாதித்த விதமும் அதனால் அங்கு ஏற்பட்ட பரபரப்பும் அழகு. கதையை விவாதிக்க வேறு இடமே கிடைக்கலைய ஷங்கர் சார் ? ஹாஹா.. நல்ல சொன்னிங்க போங்க. அதுவும் அமெரிக்க ஏர்போர்ட்டில். குசும்பு தான்.
தலைவரை ஹாலிவுட் மேக்கப் ஆர்டிஸ்ட் புகழும் காட்சி ஒன்று போதும் தலைவரை பற்றி புரிந்து கொள்ள.. தலைவரின் முகத்தில் எந்திர தனம் வருவதற்கு ஆசிட் ஊற்றி எடுக்கப்பட்ட காட்சிகள் நம்ம பத பதக்க வைக்கின்றன.
தலைவரை ஆறு மணி நேரம் ஒரு டேபிளுக்கு அடியில் படுக்க வைத்துவிட்டு மேக்கப் போட்டு எடுத்த காட்சியை பார்த்தபொழுதும், ஹாலிவுட் டெக்னிசியன்ஸ் நம் தலைவரை புகழ்ந்த பொழுது நம் கண்களில் தாரை தாரையாக கண்ணீர்... இந்த ஒரு உணர்வு தான் தலைவரை நாம் ஒரு நடிகராக மட்டுமே பார்க்கவில்லை என்பதை மற்றவர்களுக்கு புரிய வைக்கிறது.
இந்த 'Making of Endhiran' பார்த்த பிறகு technical விஷயங்களை ரசித்து அனுபவிக்க நாம் எந்திரனை பல முறை பார்க்கவேண்டும் என்ற ஆர்வம் தான் மேலோங்குகிறது. அது தான் இந்த எந்திரன் குழுவின் வெற்றியும் கூட.

Rajinikanth Interview in SUNTV - எந்திரன் அனுபவம் கூடிய விரைவில் புத்தகமாக எழுதுவேன் - தலைவர்.
2010-Nov-06
நம்ம வாழ்க்கையில் ஒரு சில நிகழ்வுகளை வெறும் வார்த்தைகளால் விவரிக்க முடியாது - அந்த மாதிரி ஒரு தருணத்தில் தான் இருப்பதாக, ஒரு மீடியா நபர் என்ற அடையாளத்தையும் தாண்டி தன்னை ஒரு ரஜினி ரசிகன் என்ற அடையாளத்தோடு தலைவரை பேட்டி கண்டார் விஜய்சாரதி.
தலைவரை விஜய்சாரதி பேட்டி எடுப்பதா என்று உங்களில் சிலர் வினா எழுப்பக்கூடும். ஆனால் உற்று நோக்கினால் இதிலும் தலைவரின் பெருந்தன்மையே வெளிப்படும். தன்னை பேட்டி எடுப்பவரின் அந்தஸ்தை பார்த்து பேசுபவர் அல்ல நம் தலைவர் என்பதை நாம் புரிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும்.
நம்மிடம் ஆயிரம் கேள்விகள் இருந்தாலும், தலைவரை நேரில் பார்க்கும்பொழுது ஒரு வார்த்தை கூட நம்மால் பேச முடியாது.. அளவிற்கு அதிகமாக பேசும் விஜயசாரதியும் தலைவர் முன்பு அந்த நிலைமையில்தான் இருந்தார் என்பதை நாம் புரிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும்.
'எல்லா புகழும் இறைவனுக்கே' என்ற வாக்கியத்துடன் ஆரம்பித்த தலைவரின் பேட்டி நிகழ்ச்சி முழுக்க தான் எந்த விதத்திலும் சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் மாயையில் மாட்டுபவர் அல்ல - என்றும் சிவாஜி ராவ் தான் என்பதை தனது எளிமையான பேச்சி திறன் மற்றும் Body Language மூலம் வெளிபடுத்தினார்.
நாம் எதிர்பார்த்தது போலவே இந்த பேட்டி எந்திரன் பௌவுன்டரியை தாண்டி செல்லலாமல் தலைவர் மிக சாமர்த்தியமாக கையான்டது தலைவருக்கே உரித்தான சிறப்பு திறன்.. ஷங்கர், ரஹ்மான் மற்றும் கலாநிதி மாறன் மீது தலைவர் வைத்திருக்கும் அளவிற்கு அதிகமான மரியாதையை பேட்டி முழுக்க உணர முடிந்தது.
காதல் அணுக்கள் பாடலில் நடித்ததை ஒரு 'Adventure' ஆக குறிப்பிட்ட தலைவர், கிளிமஞ்சாரோ பாடலில் தன்னுடன் நடனம் ஆடிய ஒவ்வொருவரின் திறமையும் மனம் திறந்து பாராட்டியது சிறப்பு.
சிட்டியின் அறிமுக சீன் மிக நன்றாக வந்ததும், அந்த டென்ஷன் போக்குவதற்காக கேரவன் வந்து ஒரு டீ குடித்து ஒரு தம் அடித்தது முதல் திரை படங்களில் புகை பிடிக்காமல் இருப்பதற்கு காரணத்தை சொன்னது வரை - தலைவர் என்றும் எப்பொழுதும் ஒரு திறந்த புத்தகம், எதிலும் ஒளிவு மறைவு இல்லாத வாழ்க்கையை வாழ்கிறார் என்பதை நாம் உணரலாம். இன்றைய இளைய தலைமுறை நடிகர்கள் படிக்க வேண்டிய பாடம் இது.
ஹாலிவுட் டெக்னிசியன்ஸ் பற்றி குறிப்பிடும் தலைவர் அவர்களது ஒழுக்கம் மற்றும் நேரம் தவறாமை குறித்த தனது கருத்துக்களை சொல்லும்பொழுது அழகு.
ஜனங்களை முட்டாள் என்று நனைப்பவன் - முதல் முட்டாள் என்று ஒரு மிக பெரிய விஷயத்தை மிக சாதரணமாக தனது ஸ்டைலில் சொல்லும் தலைவர், கடந்த முப்பத்தைந்து வருடங்களாக ரசிகன் தன மீது வைத்திருக்கும் அன்பு குறித்து பேசுவது மிக நெகுழ்ச்சி.
எந்திரன் அனுபவத்தை ஒரு புத்தகமாக கூடிய விரைவில் எழுதவிருப்பதாக தலைவர் சொன்னது நாம் எதிர்பார்க்காத இனிய சர்ப்ரைஸ்!!
பேட்டியின் நிறைவின் பொழுது தலைவரின் சமீத்திய ஹிமாலய பயணத்தின் புகை படங்களை திரையில் ஓட - அதன் பின்னணியில் ஒலித்த பாடல் வரிகள் ..
"மாற்றம் கொண்டு வா...
மனிதனை நீ நேசி...
உனது ஆற்றலால் -
உலகை நீ மாற்று..
எல்லா உயிருக்கும்..
நன்மையாய் இரு..
எந்த நிலையிலும் -
உண்மையா இரு"
புரிகிறதா நண்பர்களே ?? - சரி ஓகே.. இப்பேட்டியின் வீடியோ தொகுப்பு இதோ..

Watching the making of this movie totally justifies why it took these many years to finish it. Every single aspect has been given the greatest attention to detail.
When Shankar proclaims this is his dream project, I understand now, that it's not just about the plot or the script, but having to take care of every single shot and all its technicalities and nuances.
Finally, I don't think it's just Shankar's dream project, but for every single person involved in this movie, including Thalaivar!
It reminded me of what my friend said as we walked out of the theater the first day, "Shankar is God!". I can totally see he is in fact the God of this movie - the master crafstman who's proved this movie is in no way inferior to any Hollywood movie even!

Endhiran The Robot to screen at Britain, Cannes, Berlin and Shanghai Film Festival
Superstar Rajnikanth’s ‘Enthiran: The Robot’, directed by Shankar and produced in a grand manner by Sun Pictures, released last month worldwide and has been running successfully in almost all the places it was released. The film, which has many firsts to its credit, is all set to be screened in Britain at a film festival.
The ‘Baath’ film festival, an annual affair, has been taking place in Britain for the past twenty years. This year, it would be held from 10th of November where superstar Rajni’s ‘Enthiran’ would be screened.The film is slated to be screened on 13th November.
The Tamil version of the film, with English sub-titles, is to be screened for which the tickets are priced at 5 and 7 pound sterling. In keeping with the mood and attitude of the Westerners who never sit through a film beyond a couple of hours,the film’s song and comedy sequences have been edited and it has now been pruned down to two hours.
Sources close to Sun Pictures said that film festivals at Cannes, Berlin and Shanghai have invited ‘Endhiran’ for special screening.

எந்திரன் உருவான நிகழ்வுகளைப் பார்த்தேன். ஒரே வார்த்தையில் சொல்லணும்னா, "பிரமாண்டம்". உலகம் முழுவதும் உள்ள தேர்ந்த திறமைகளை எல்லாம் ஒன்று சேர்த்து உருவாக்கிய எந்திரன் நிச்சயம் தமிழ், இந்திய திரைப்பட உலகில் மணி மகுடம். ஷங்கர்.. ரொம்பப் பெருமையாக இருக்கிறது. உனது ஆளுமை, திட்டமிடல் மெச்சத்தக்கது. பொருள் உதவி செய்த, ஷங்கரின் கனவினை நனவாக்கிய சன் குழுமத்திற்கு நன்றிகள்.
ரஜினி உழைப்புக்கு தலைவணங்குகிறேன். எனது முந்தைய அனுமானத்தில் இன்னும் உறுதியாக இருக்கிறேன். ரஜினிக்கு எந்திரன் ஒரு மைல்கல். தேசிய விருது உறுதி.
ரஹ்மான் இந்த ஆண்டு சிறந்த இசைக்கான தேசிய விருதினை எந்திரனினும் வாங்கப்போகிறார்.
எல்லாத் துறையிலும் தேசிய விருதை தட்டிச் செல்கிற ஒரே தகுதி எந்திரன். கலையும், வணிகமும் இணைந்த எந்திரன் விருதுகளையும் தட்டிச்செல்வதில் வியப்பில்லை.
"எந்திரன் உருவான கதை" எல்லோரையும் இன்னொருமுறை திரைக்கு அழைத்துச் செல்லும்.

after a big gap of 1 month +, i saw the movie on saturday night. I just have no words for the film. The only thing i didnt like about the film was Santhanam and karunas..... felt their joke was forced in. Other than that, the movie was excellent. The most satisfying film ive seen in years. Everything was there, action, love, sentiment, technology, great music, BGM that sync well with the film (rare thing these days), great performance, great dance, great dialogues and great costumes. In this movie , i saw Rajinikanth as an ACTOR, which was such a pleasant surprise. Rajinikanth at that age to act like this... its just unbelieveable...!! The last i saw Rajini as an actor was in Thalapathy. And then he was RAJINIKANTH the Superstar all the way until Endhiran came about. Aishwarya Rai was just so stunning in the movie. She lip sync as if she knows Tamil well. Just great! and her reactions are as usual, splendid!
Chitti character was just sooo close to the heart. I was so attached to it that during the ending of the movie where it dissemble itself, i couldnt stop but just hoping that he will be back..... I hope there is a part 2 ......
I went to TGV Sunway Pyramid, only one theater was playing Endhiran in there, and it was house full... Roughly 60 to 70 seats.....i was lucky to get the last ticket..... I enjoyed the movie thoroughly.... and oh yes, none of the viewers left out for the songs... all were sitting there for ALL the songs... Something i never expected.....
It was worth my RM 14..... Just great... this project from Shankar - A.R.Rahman - Rajinikanth is what it is really worth its hype. Sivaji can be forgotten and Endhiran will take the crown easily.

Ash- Rajini look great on-screen: Abhi
TNN, Nov 8, 2010, 06.00pm IST
Ok. We've heard this one right from her husband, Abhishek Bachchan's mouth. Abhi strongly believes that of all the actors Ash has worked with, her onscreen pairing with Superstar Rajini is the best.
Abhi and Ash made an appearance on a chat show with Karan Johar and when he questioned Abhi who makes a good onscreen pair with Ash, Abhi, without batting an eyelid, said, "Rajinikanth." He added, "Ash and Duggu (Hrithik) are both good-lookers and with them, no one goes beyond the look factor. And I definitely wish she gets to do more movies with Shah Rukh because their movies have done well at the BO. But with Rajini sir, the pairing is perfect! I've seen Robot (Endhiran) and I certainly feel the two make a dhamaal jodi!"

From: Plum on 8th November 2010 06:48 PM [Full View]
Nerd's points = hard work - I don't know if you guys know this but SAC had some animation/graphics stuff in a vijayakanth movie. I suspect Shankar who was the asst to SAC then might have had a lot to do with it but it was essentially used for typical SAC sensibility scenes. I didn't see anything different in Endhiran - out and out SAC sensibility in manyplaces.
Small instances here and there - using feeyaar's theory on intentional fallacy(to attribute these to director, track record should have consistent such ideas) - do not a proof make. The scene quoted by Feeyaar - is that shankar or a balakumaran moment?
Jeans - sangarE maddy levelku yOsichurukka mAttAr. Too much baradwaj ranganesque attribution to director from maddy.

There are so many genius moments in this film:
1. My avatar (camera angle, lighting, the frame was simply brilliant. What a pose) And this appeals to A B C all centers.
2. Last 20 minutes, the way he used the Rajinis (P_R's example - snake's tongue)
3. Electromagnetic effect in all the scenes. Even in the fire rescue scene, after saving someone, the robot, for a millisecond looks for a surface to which he can get attracted to. I missed this while watching the film.
Yeah and the most popular moment in the film, mehhhh the way Shankar does this is much better than what Rajini did - according to Rajini himself. Originally Posted by kid-glove

I think the easiest way to attribute merit to a director is through all the graphics and animation. Take the 'pure' animation bits, the mosquito sequence is downright silly, the direction/execution is quite good that it offsets the silliness. It would have looked unfilmmable on paper to most directors. Definitely SAC.

Shankar treads the sci-fi path, backed by the cash-rich Sun network. The result is a visual spectacle involving some of the best names in animation, makeup and graphics in world cinema. The movie also has drowned Superstar’s image in the visual extravaganza.

Having ruled the roost since its release, Endhiran is still holding court in many release centers.

Plum,
Agree that it was still silly. But the execution was pretty good.
To make the dead props seem like actual 'robots' (with help of CGI of course) is mark of a good director.
"Enna dhaan vaNNam pUsi kAmichAlum"
- Glossiness is Shankar's drawback. Nalla clean-A sets-nu theriyum (lab'la irundhu veedu varaikkum). That's a valid response. This was discussed in BR's comment space too. And when Guzaarish releases, SLB's stylization will also be criticized for its usual pitfalls.
SAC-ku onniyum illaiyE. You mean to say all his films were stylistically consistent in accord with a singular vision. Again, you confuse direction with writing.

Bay,
Their writing could be compared at superficial level. Still the gap is sufficiently large. I mean SAC films are downright crap. As P_R says, Sangar makes his films somewhat engaging, for which I'd credit his style of direction. That's why the scenes (even within the Vigilante genre, for eg.) don't come across as completely banal (even if they are lame writing with stereotypes), much unlike SAC. The action choreography is entirely different from the contemporary and past Tamil filmmakers. And graphics surely isn't Ramanarayanan level.

Yesterday I saw this movie for the third time at PVR Cinemas, Ampa Skywalk. Surprised to see 100% Theatre occupancy on Sunday, 9.00 clock show with a storm threat,wet rainy day. That too the movie is screened in Audi-03, the biggest cinema.
The Mosquito scene is removed and I was able to enjoy the movie more than my 1st and 2nd time watching. I could hear the cheers all along from the crowd and could sense that people loved this movie.

comparisons are sure odious.
however one has to also understand that SAC never had the thought of collaborating with someone like Sujatha who gave him enough inputs (scientific and screen writing). So considering that and viewing Shankar's outputs without bias....
Only makes me wonder Gentleman was the only film where he showed what his stuff is - the SAC formula of vigilante + novelty and focus on technical stuff. where has the SAC element been elevated by shankar's contribution? On the contrary sujatha's inputs have been made sillier to appeal at the box office.
Shankar = SAC + Sujatha + masala - common sense;
As far as executing project vision, story boarding, I still feel it was imparted to him by Sujatha and he has implemented it without "vision". It works for Box Office ? Sure it does. Does he need critical celebration - no he doesnt. IS he worthy of critical celebration? No he aint.

Shankar is the first person to popularise computer grafics in Gentleman. Eventhough kamal introduced that in aboorva sago, it was a small scene and computer awareness wasn't there. Even then, even kamal, who 1st introduced it via Venki( same person who did for shankar) didnt use graphics as colorful as what shankar did in gentleman and Kaathalan. I guess even hindi films started computer graphics ONLY after gentleman.
Shankar SAC comparision is an insult to shankar, for the height he has grown today.
And yes, he himself never wanted to proclaim himself as a good writer. But he is, actually, in some movies, some parts. For example, Using Varmakalai in Indian, MPD & Kumbibogam stuff in Anniyan were brilliant ideas toasted with full masala.

Luckily for shankar, Kamal turned down the "endhiran offer". If he had done instead of rajni, I suspect Shankar would have got the sole credit for his direction of endhiran- including the accusation!

Saaru, sollave vendam
Sakala,
Animation/Graphics were used in Anjali along with optical illusion using other editing techniques. Chikku bukku rayil song in Gendilman, the technique is derived from Anjali's Rathiri nerathil song, the special effects (the fiery lines emerging from the outerspace monster through different bodies, and blue lined handcuffs to the ground,etc) of course. Shankar used the same animation/graphics specialist, S.T. Venki, in "Gentleman".

திரும்பி வந்த எந்திரன் தொகை
மகிழ்ச்சியில் தியேட்டர்காரர்கள்
Last Updated 3:05 Hrs [IST], November 08, 2010
எந்திரன் வாங்கிய திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள் எல்லாரும் மிகுந்த சந்தோஷத்திலிருக்கிறார்கள். சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் வழங்கிய தீபாவளி காசோலைதான் காரணம்!
எந்திரன் ரிலீஸ் நேரத்தில் நேரடியாக திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்களுடன் டீலிங் Endhiranவைத்துக் கொண்டது சன். சிறிதளவு முன் பணம் தந்துவிட்டு படத்தை திரையிட்டுக் கொள்வது. அந்த பணத்தை தாண்டி வருகிற கலெக்ஷனை பர்சன்டேஜ் அடிப்படையில் இருவரும் பிரித்துக் கொள்வது என்பதுதான் அந்த டீலிங். இதை விரும்பாத சில திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள் பெரிய தொகையை நாங்கள் இப்பவே கொடுத்துவிடுகிறோம். கலெக்ஷனில் பங்கு கேட்காதீர்கள் என்ற அடிப்படையிலும் படத்தை வாங்கியிருந்தார்கள்.
ரிலீசுக்கு பிறகு சிறியளவு பணத்தை கொடுத்து சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் சொன்ன டீலிங்கை முடித்திருக்கலாமே என்று வருந்தினார்களாம் அவர்கள். தங்கள் எண்ணத்தை சன்னுக்கு தெரிவிக்க, அதனாலென்ன. அதிகப்படியாக வாங்கிய தொகையை திருப்பி தருகிறோம். கலெக்ஷனில் பர்சன்டேஜ் தந்துவிடுங்கள் என்று கூறி பழைய சலுகையையே அவர்களுக்கு அளிக்க முன் வந்தார்களாம். தீபாவளிக்கு இரு தினங்களுக்கு முன் அத்தனை பேரையும் சென்னைக்கு வரவழைத்து அதிகப்படியாக வாங்கிய தொகையை திருப்பி கொடுத்தது நிர்வாகம்.
ரொம்ப ஹேப்பியாக வீடு திரும்பிய திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள் இந்த தீபாவளியை ரொம்ப சிறப்பாகவே கொண்டாடியிருக்கிறார்கள். இன்னமும் தங்கள் தியேட்டர்களில் எந்திரன் படத்தை ஓட்டிக் கொண்டிருக்கும் அவர்கள், சேர வேண்டிய பர்சன்டேஜ் தொகையை சன்னுக்கு அனுப்பவும் தயாராகி வருகிறார்களாம்.

Engaging for whom? Not for me. And it is quite perplexing to me - it is just my view, isnt it? Why imply that people criticising Shankar "want to be different from the crowd" etc.? I am stating plain, simple that these movies dont engage me in the same way they do to a majority. Why does the majority react like this to that? Originally Posted by kid-glove

The action choreography is entirely different from the contemporary and past Tamil filmmakers. And graphics surely isn't Ramanarayanan level.
He is not Ramanarayanan or KS Ravikumar level - is that a compliment?
And kid, did you get that my comment was on his sensibility? - do you disagree that his sensibility is close to SAC's? (SAC also made nilavae malarae and the likes, wherein you can the middle class morality stuff that was paraded on behalf of Shankar here).
I have seen a lot of SAC(yeah, shoot me!) - much beyond the common perception of him as a one-note Vigilante director. Ofcourse, he is that but if you guys can, by virtue of having grown up with Shankar, attribute nuances to him, it is not hard for me to build a similar case for SAC in similar terms. This, without even re-watching those 80's movies - not that that is an enticing prospect.
When Boys released, there was a similar debate on directorial skills, the hard work and vision in bringing in the motion-capture technique(or whatever) etc - I ask for what purpose?
These things dont matter to me - you work as hard as you want to; bottomline is output - and not just in terms of visual beauty.
A director's sensibility is the most important thing for me - and I dont fancy myself as a Movie Critic, and I have stated that before as well therefpre how these techniques take tamil cinema forward dont matter to me; and frankly, I dont see that happening either - and to me Shankar's sensibility closely matches SAC. It is not that I disrespect him as a director but this means that I place him in the same level as SAC. Which, in turn , means that I perhaps dont disrespect SAC as a director as much as most of you possibly do.

Jai, to wit, Gentleman had Balakumaran colloborating. Please remember that Balakumaran was bigger(even if by 1 or 2 cm only) than Shankar at that point, and I distinctly remember him writing in one of his columns, when the movie was in the making in the early stages, expressing awe at Shankar's action-choreography skills as a director. He also wrote about his contribution - which was more on the sensibility side - and that is where I believe the last scene(ararkkan carrying kozhandhai in iduppu) is Balak's contribution.

comparisons are sure odious.
however one has to also understand that SAC never had the thought of collaborating with someone like Sujatha who gave him enough inputs (scientific and screen writing). So considering that and viewing Shankar's outputs without bias....
Only makes me wonder Gentleman was the only film where he showed what his stuff is - the SAC formula of vigilante + novelty and focus on technical stuff. where has the SAC element been elevated by shankar's contribution? On the contrary sujatha's inputs have been made sillier to appeal at the box office.
Shankar = SAC + Sujatha + masala - common sense;
As far as executing project vision, story boarding, I still feel it was imparted to him by Sujatha and he has implemented it without "vision". It works for Box Office ? Sure it does. Does he need critical celebration - no he doesnt. IS he worthy of critical celebration? No he aint.
Remember also that late 70's and 80's, with the AVM style of working being the benchmark, a director was more valued for his ability to do a hack job in a short period of time. SAC didnt probably spend more than 45 days for a whole movie. It is to Shankar's credit that he was one of the architects of the new paradigm(before him, Manirathnam and Kamal, ofcourse) of shaping a movie until it reaches his vision of perfection. That, I will give him, but prevailing circumstances also helped him in this regard - by the time he came in, people like Mani, Kamal, Rahman(well, maybe not so much because he was also starting only then) had laid the pavement for this.
(IR is a different ball game altogether - there you got speed, prolificity AND quality)

To be honest, I am glad Kamal didnt do Endhiran, the differences in Script that may have occurred notwithstanding. And nobody, repeat nobody, implies remotely, even today, that Kamal had anything to do with the filmmaking aspects of "Indian" so this accusation is a paranoid, retreating response. If Kamal had done Endhiran, the credit or debit would still have gone to Shankar. It would have been Shankar's film, just as VV is acknowedged and appreciated/critiqued to be a GVM film, not a Kamal film. It is easy to take such potshots but you've got to take cognisance of reality Originally Posted by thamiz

Nevaire.and that is where I believe the last scene(ararkkan carrying kozhandhai in iduppu) is Balak's contribution.
First of all it is the opening scene. (where they are taking the money after the auction) which Arjun (overturned lorry's driver) steals it.
Name such a throwaway moment in any other film written by him.
The impact of the lorry with smashed tomatoes and pulp of a leg.
The lorry flying over the trains (which has since then become commonplace) was the highlight of the opening sequence. But even before that there was so many so many moments.
Even if you credit BK with the conception of the appaLa-factory agraharam environment (I doubt that), bringing that to life was something Sangarji did very well. It would be difficult to argue that, any of the comparator directors being brought up here, would do half as good a job of it.
Look at the cuts and changes in Gentleman. I've mentioned this earlier:
Lawyer Prasanna: aduthadhu enge?
Arjun: pazhaNi
cut to milling crowd, kavadi, saamiyAdi, mottai, announcement booth (which we are seeing because we need to see more of it shortly).
Manorama: enga krishnamoorthy indha englis ellAm pEsuvAnA
Vineethsic) nee vERa ponnamma (?), avan ennannamO baashai ellAm kathukkaraan
Arjun and Nambiar chanting....we see the appaLa maavu being pestled.
Arjun alights from the bus and enters the house, heavy bag on either hand...view from top as he is surrounded by dugs.
As he starts stuffing, we see a figure (Nambiar) in the background.
NOTHING has been explained till then, hence a thrill.
As an engaging visual storyteller he made a solid impact right on his debut.

makkaLE,
First things first. Shankar has always written his films, i.e. the screenplays for his films, which is always the major component of the writing of any film. Both Sujatha and Balakumaran are credited just for the dialogue in Shankar's films. This may have utmost enabled the film to be more authentic and believable in some respects. Story discussions 'ல participate பண்ணியிருப்பாங்க, so அதுல கொஞ்சம் பங்கு இருக்கலாம். அதுக்கு மேல அவங்க contribution ஒண்ணும் இல்லைன்னே தைரியமா சொல்லலாம்.
With எந்திரன், Sujatha's contribution is at a more elementary level because of the subject matter, that's all. மத்தப்படி இதுவும் ஷங்கர் எழுதின படம் தான்.

as Shankar told once in an interview: "Once I complete the script writing, I will send this to Sujatha sir for review... I will make corrections as per Sujatha's review.. and send it again. We will repeat this till we get the final draft. Then we proceed for the shoot" Originally Posted by equanimus
This way Sujatha involved in the script writing at least from Mudhalvan...
For the first 2 films (GM, Kadalan), Shankar was NOT so popular, also teamed up with BK..
For Indian, as I read in one Sujatha's book, Kamal wanted few changes in the script which Shankar did NOT agree to that.. later Sujatha himself convinced Kamal NOT to change the script (as per the book, "konjam thalaiyidama nadichi koduthuden pa... Kamal: neenga vasanam ezhutharathunna nadikkaren.. sujatha: Why NOT? )...
in some way, Kamal was the reason for Shankar-Sujatha team...

All is well, Plum. Neenga solra madhiri, nuances could be misleading. Andha pakkamE yaarum pOla, we're just talking about the effectiveness of the style of filmming and editing, which is often confused with writing. Agreed on sensibility. The wrath and wish-fulfillment of the middle-class is from SAC, no doubt. I obviously respect your view. We're only discussing. We should keep it to the point of discussion.

equa, shankar liberally took more inputs from sujatha, not just dialogs, but there is no denial that its the way he used them which made click. I guess Anniyan was the top Bo spinner among ALL Vikram movies. Shankar was able to give blockbusters even before rajini combo.

Crazy mohan's work in any non-kamal film had become dud whereas there is a constant business value for kamal+crazy combo. this is also like that. for example, see sujatha's non shankar or non kamal films - the utter flop thamanna film for example.
Shankar has own stuff on how to use technology(including his flaws) and sujatha just helped to improvise and grow up to a higher level. not that sujatha is shankar's brain.
for enthiran, its evident he did most of things without sujathas help, or he took some other ppl's help. like madhan karky. this shows that shankar needs a tech consultant to better his own, original ideas. thats all.

The lorry flying over the trains (which has since then become commonplace) was the highlight of the opening sequence. But even before that there was so many so many moments.
Even if you credit BK with the conception of the appaLa-factory agraharam environment (I doubt that), bringing that to life was something Sangarji did very well. It would be difficult to argue that, any of the comparator directors being brought up here, would do half as good a job of it.
Look at the cuts and changes in Gentleman. I've mentioned this earlier:
Lawyer Prasanna: aduthadhu enge?
Arjun: pazhaNi
cut to milling crowd, kavadi, saamiyAdi, mottai, announcement booth (which we are seeing because we need to see more of it shortly).
Manorama: enga krishnamoorthy indha englis ellAm pEsuvAnA
Vineethsic) nee vERa ponnamma (?), avan ennannamO baashai ellAm kathukkaraan
Arjun and Nambiar chanting....we see the appaLa maavu being pestled.
Arjun alights from the bus and enters the house, heavy bag on either hand...view from top as he is surrounded by dugs.
As he starts stuffing, we see a figure (Nambiar) in the background.
NOTHING has been explained till then, hence a thrill.
As an engaging visual storyteller he made a solid impact right on his debut.
Awesome movie!
But the problem is that shankar has moved away from Gentleman.For example.,the intro fight and the fight in the IG office were captivating but not extravagant. But take Anniyan, the kill bill imitation - it was very very extravagant and it was not captivating by any means.
The intensity of Gentleman was missing in his latter films.The scene where arjun gets down from the bus and walks with his back to the camera.... noone will change the channel after watching that.
Its like the difference Johnny and padayappa - both are stylish, but padayappa misses the real rajni..its just a puffed up less effective version of his natural style in johnny.

That's the only way to deal with this sort of problematic credit-sharing. Like in case of Welles-Mankiewicz. Hub's flowchart goes like, it's good, it's Sujatha, if it's bad, it's Sangar. Aana venum Sangar-ku, eppavumE oru prototype vechu script ezhuduraaru. Personally I find the writing in Sangar's films to be uniformly bad (and some times, moderately good) in many films, it's his direction that keeps one engaged. So even if BK, Sujatha, etc take the credit, it isn't all too favorable to the writer. Originally Posted by equanimus

I think the right way for Sangar supporters (and detractors) to take this discussion forward and proper is to cite examples, as P_R did for Gentleman in Sangar's favour.

Of course I am not denying his contribution at all. In fact I believe Sujatha could have salvaged RavaNan in great part. I've never cringed so hard in recent memory. If he'd been around as a script doctor, he'd've atleast rapped the duo on the knuckles and asked for it to be rewritten.

(in which முதல்வன் in particular is discussed in detail in many places), it's quite clear he was involved in the story discussions for these films. At least from முதல்வன், as you say. But again, if one reads that screenplay help-book carefully, one would be able to see that Sujatha's contribution is usually related to the written lines, the dialogue, the brevity and the appropriateness with which they're written etc.
The larger question is simply if Shankar was even willing to let Sujatha screenwrite the film (with or without credit) for him. The answer is quite clearly, no. The overall filmmaking style is all Shankar's. And of course, Sujatha himself has clarified about his contribution in many places.

Abhishek Bachhan : Ash and Rajini look great on-screen
Ok. We've heard this one right from her husband, Abhishek Bachchan's mouth. Abhi strongly believes that of all the actors Ash has worked with, her onscreen pairing with Superstar Rajini is the best.
Abhi and Ash made an appearance on a chat show with Karan Johar and when he questioned Abhi who makes a good onscreen pair with Ash, Abhi, without batting an eyelid, said, "Rajinikanth." He added, "Ash and Duggu (Hrithik) are both good-lookers and with them, no one goes beyond the look factor. And I definitely wish she gets to do more movies with Shah Rukh because their movies have done well at the BO. But with Rajini sir, the pairing is perfect! I've seen Robot (Endhiran) and I certainly feel the two make a dhamaal jodi!"

his voice was typecasted and one and the same, when Deva used him for songs like Kaathal movies from siva sakthi paandiyan. At that time i, like many, was big hater of his voice.
After the landmark Uyire, Vennilave from ARR, his voice was most misused by Deva. but now, his here and there songs are flawless and gems for me - Kallai Mattum Kandaal, Manjal Veyil maalai, Nenjukkul Peithidum etc, I never felt uneasy anywhere during Arima, its a cool job for him

Robo Collects around Rs. 15 crore in Nizam!
In what is turning out to be an out and out collection fest, Rajnikanth starrer Robo has collected around Rs. 15crore in just the Nizam territory. What’s more is that the producer and distributor are expecting even more!
The best part of for this Shankar directed movie is that the audiences of almost all regions in India have owned the film. Infact the Telugu audiences, like never before, saw the film like any other Telugu movie, promoting it with word of mouth and otherwise. The Tamil original Endhiran is still running in almost 300 theaters in Tamil Nadu. Hindi version Robot has raised the way Bollywood looks at dubbing films from now on, especially Rajnikanth films.
In the long run in Nizam Terrirtory, Robo is still expected to collect around another crore, making the overall collections around 16 crore. No wonder Robo is the highest grosser in Tamil and Telugu this year!

Box Office: All Big Films In Line
1. Robo: Much to the dismay of many, this mega budget movie soared in profits and set a new trend in the cine circuit. Superstar Rajinikanth’s strong charisma and the regular adoration to Aishwarya did the trick. Most importantly, it is the direction of show man Shankar.
2. Rakta Charitra: the eccentric genius Ram Gopal Varma seems to be out of his flop season as he came up with this gut wrenching story. The film scored well in both versions and has given him a new lease of life at the box office.
3. Brindavanam: young tiger NTR junior has attempted for an image change with this project and has been fairly successful. The glamour of Kajal and Samantha, the visual appeal and the family story worked well with the audience.
4. Bava: southern stud Siddarth worked real hard for the promotion of this film but in vain. Despite the presence of senior Rajendra Prasad and a decent comedy in the first half, the film has flunked. The good side of this is the emergence of the stunning hottie Pranitha.
5. Khaleja: Prince Mahesh Babu returned from his sabbatical and was sure to score a blockbuster given his teaming with director Trivikram. However, the film failed to gain momentum and turned out to be a below average treat.

to help this thread move past page 75, i am re-posting my previous post in the enthiran thread.
please share your ideas for endhiran 2.0
my short idea for endhiran 2.0:
aishwarya dies in 2011 giving birth her only daughter shreya.
the year is 2035. world is ruled by robots. to end the robot's domination, vaseegaran re-assembles chitti.
vaseegaran introduces chitti to shreya:
chitti becomes shreya's friend. shreya takes chitti to her college and introduces him to her friends.
vaseegaran: ivan unnoda annan, ivanai naan unakku munnadi uruvakinen
shreya: ohho... chitti uncle neega thaane enga ammavai daavu adicheenga, appa solli irukkaru
chitti: !!!!!!
meanwhile vaseegaran programs chitti and prepares him for the battle aginst the robots that rule the world.
vaseegaran master plans the operation but the robots are more advanced and chitti fails.
chitti pleads vaseegaran to upgrade him with the red chip. vaseegaran initially is reluctant but finally upgrades chitti to chitti 2.0.
climax is chitti2.0 vs the robot army.

Universally accepted Flop BABA ran more days than SIVAJI & Endhiran, so you can infer that Endhiran is a SUPERFLOP movie (only as per him).

எந்திரன் படம் விளம்பரம் மட்டும் பார்க்கக் கூடாது. மற்ற படங்களின் விளம்பரத்தையும் பார்க்கணும்.
இப்படி விளம்பரம் படுத்திதான் மக்களை ஏமாற்றிக் கொண்டு இருக்கிறார்கள்.
ஜெயா மற்றும் அம்பிகாவில் தீபாவளி அன்றே படம் எடுக்கப்பட்டு விட்டது.
வெற்றியில் நான்கு நாட்களுக்கு முன்னாலேயே படம் எடுக்கப்பட்டு இப்பொழுது மைனா ஓடிக் கொண்டு இருக்கிறது.
தங்கரீகலில் இன்று முதல் ஹாரிபாட்டர் படமும்,குருவில் இன்று முதல் வேறு ஒரு படமும் திரை இடப்படுகிறது.
குருவில் 1997 முதல் ரஜினி படம் தொடர்ந்து திரை இடப்படுகிறது. பாபாவையே அவர்கள் 70+ நாட்கள் ஒட்டினார்கள். ஆனால் எந்திரனை 49 நாட்களில் தூக்கி விட்டதிலேயே படத்தின் வெற்றியை நீங்கள் புரிந்து கொள்ளலாம்.

மிகப் பெரிய பொருட்செலவிலும்,மிகப் பெரிய எதிர்பார்ப்புடனும் வெளிவந்த எந்திரன் படம் B & C சென்டர்களில் பெரிய தோல்வியை தழுவி உள்ளது.
ஏப்ரல் மாதம் தான் ரஜினி படம் வெளிவர சரியான மாதம் என்பது இதன் மூலம் உறுதி செய்யப் பட்டுள்ளது.

Actually during the time of Sivaji there were no *powerful* producers and the film did cross 50 days in 90% of the centers it released. Its going to be extremely difficult for any film, from any producer to best that no. of days thing. Thats why Sun had to release Enthiran in 90% of the theaters across TN and they did succeed with a blockbuster hit. Indha 50 days, 100 days ellaam freeyaa viduvOm. 100 days most probably noon show in some theater in Chennai

Endhiran has completed 50 days in 145 theaters .. Detailed Report
2010-Nov-19
தலைவரின் எந்திரன் திரைப்படம் உலகம் முழுக்க 50 நாட்களை கடந்து வெற்றி நடைபோடுகிறது.
கடந்த அக்டோபர் 1-ம் தேதி உலகம் முழுக்க 3000 திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகி வசூலில் புதிய சரித்திரம் படைத்தது. உள்நாடு, வெளிநாடு இரண்டிலும் சேர்த்து இந்தப் படத்தின் மொத்த வசூல் ரூ 350 கோடி என அறிவிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
சென்னை 29, மதுரை 31, திருச்சி 26, சேலம் 26, கோயம்பத்தூர் 8, திருநெல்வேலி 9, நார்த் ஆர்காட் 26, மற்றும் உலகம் முழுவதும் என மொத்தம் 145 திரை அரங்குகளில் வெற்றி நடை போடுகிறான் எந்திரன். இனி இப்படி ஒரு சாதனையை திரையுலகில் எவரேலும் நிகழ்த்தமுடியுமா என்ற ஒரு மிக மிக பிரமாண்ட வினா எழுவதை இத்தருணத்தில் தவிர்க்க முடியவில்லை.
இந்தியாவிலேயே அதிக பொருட்செலவில் தயாரான படம் மட்டுமல்ல... இந்தியாவிலேயே அதிக வசூலைக் குவித்த படமும் எந்திரனே.
தெலுங்கில் புதிய வசூல் சாதனை நிகழ்த்தியுள்ள ரோபோ, இன்னும் பல திரையரங்குகளில் ஓடிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது. ஆந்திராவில் மகதீரா படத்தின் வசூல் சாதனையை முறியடித்துள்ளது ரோபோ.
குஜராத், ஹரியானா போன்ற வெளி மாநிலங்கள், பிரிட்டன், அமெரிக்கா உள்ளிட்ட வெளிநாடுகளிலும் சில குறிப்பிட்ட திரையரங்குகளில் மட்டும் இந்தப் படம் 50 நாட்களைக் கடந்து ஓடிக் கொண்டிருப்பதாக சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் தரப்பில் தெரிவிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
விரைவில் எந்திரன் படத்தை ஜப்பானில் வெளியிடும் முயற்சிகளில் உள்ளது சன் பிக்சர்ஸ்.
திருட்டு டிவிடி, இணையதள வெளியீடு என ஒரு படத்துக்கு ஏராளமான சோதனைகள் மலிந்துவிட்ட இந்த நாட்களில், ரூ 350 கோடிக்கும் மேல் வசூலித்த ஒரு படம் 50 நாட்களைக் கடந்தும் ஓடுவது பெரிய விஷயமாகப் பார்க்கப்படுகிறது.
அரிமா அரிமா பாடலில் ரஜினியை வைரமுத்து சிலிக்கான் சிங்கம் என எழுதியுள்ளார். இந்த சிலிக்கான் சிங்கத்திற்கு ஓய்வு கிடையாது என்பதை எந்திரன் நிரூபித்துள்ளது.

They were talking about an alternative model for Enthiran, along with the usual MG model. The new model involves the producer "rents" out the theatre for the movie ie. the producer pays a flat rate to the theatre for screening the movie, but takes a much higher share of the profits that accrue...

Finally, after a lot of search for an *insightful* review on Enthiran in the blogworld, I stumbled upon these posts last night. I did not do that for a Sivaji or a Chandramukhi, they are so not worth it but Endhiran's better aspects are definitely worth dissecting. Thalaivar fans, please please do not miss these posts.

Endhiran 51 Days Celebration at Albert Theater
2010-Nov-22
It was a fun filled outing again for me at the Endhiran 51 day show at Albert theatre on 20.11.2010. I reached the theatre at around 2.40 PM and the Chennai Super Star army primarily from the SSRK Orkut forum consisting of Shiva, Andrews,Robo Sathya,Hemanth,Gowtham,Karthik and few others were discussing on the strategies for the show and were awaiting the other members.This show is organized by D. Prabhu an hardcore fanatic of Super Star and one who is well known among all the fans in Chennai. Arunachalam from Bangalore, who was once a regular contributor to Rajinifans.com (Those of you from yahoo group would not need any introduction to Arun) was the special guest who came all the way from Bangalore to attend this show (Rajini fans naley thyagigal thaney who will sacrifice office, college,exams for watching a Rajini film,ask Prabhu and Robo Sathya who will both vouch for it).
We entered the hall around 3 PM as I am very punctual when it comes to not missing the opening credits of Super Star films and some of the other responsible members who had arrived on dot also entered the theatre.
Nearly three rows of Rs 85 tickets were booked by our people for the show and the opening intro of thalaivar(whether there is an intro or not the whistling can't stop) . The capacity was more than 70%, this for a show on 51 st day that too released in almost all the theatres in city and our friends confirmed that PVR, Sahtyam, Escape and INox were sold out for that day and that is the reason we were at Albert. The capacity crowd consisted of mostly families and senior citizens and kids and some of whom might of thought it is better to watch the film quietly with out the disturbances of whistling, hustling and clapping of Rajini fans and sorry to say that they would have been disappointed and surprised as our team made it like another re release first day. The major bulk of the gang including Sampath, Jayan, Prabhu,Arun (Chief Guest) and other soldiers arrived late as it was raining heavily in Chennai that time and most could not make it on time. However they more than made up by making maximum noise.
The team led by Sampath and Prabhu gathered around the screen for every song and danced and whistled, as can be seen from the pictures.They also formed a chain and went around the entire hall resembling the big snake that comes in the climax. Amidst all that we noticed a young fan who could not be more than 5 who was dancing and clapping and enjoying every moment of the film and watching him was a real treat.
The interval session was filled with our team taking photos.The impact inside the theatre was to be seen to be believed as this was another opportunity for some of them who may have missed the FDFS. As it was another FFDS(Fifty First Day Show) and was a memorable one. I later understood that some of our key members like Robo Raguventh, Simple Sundar of onlysuperstar.com (needs no introduction for members of Rajinifans.com) and a few others could not make it due to some last minute schedule hassles.
Over all I would want to thank all our members who made it and made my day more memorable and this is possible only by Rajini fans for a Rajini film. One of our hardcore member Shiva clocked 25th time for the show and Robo sathya attended despite having high temperature(He also was to write an exam on Monday the 22).Then there was Sampath, who is one of the most popular Rajini fan in India and is sought after by the media people to get bytes on Super Star. Out and Out it was complete entertainment and I am looking forward to the next such big bash during the 100 day.
Thanks to all of you who made my day again.

ஆயிரம் கைகள் மறைத்து நின்றாலும்
2010-Nov-25
சில நாட்களுக்கும் முன் ஒரு ஆங்கில வலைத்தளத்தில் யாரோ ஒரு அதிகம் அறியப்படாத (தீபாவளியோ... பொங்கலோ.. தொறக்கியாவோ.. என்னவோ பேர் சொன்னாங்கப்பா!) ஒருவரால் நமது தலைவரின் ரசிகர் என்ற போர்வையில் "டாப் 10 ரஜினிகாந்த் ஜோக்ஸ்" என்ற பெயரில் சூப்பர் ஸ்டாரை அவமதிக்கும் விதமாக ஒரு கட்டுரை வெளியிடப் பட்டுள்ளது.
இதை நீக்கவும் அந்த தளத்தை தடை செய்யவும் நடவடிக்கை எடுக்கக் கோரியும் பல ரசிகர்கள் நமக்கு பின்னூட்டம் மூலம் தெரிவித்து வருகிறார்கள்.
அவர்களுக்கெல்லாம் நாம் சொல்வது... அமைதி! அமைதி!. நம்முடைய சூப்பர் ஸ்டாரை அவமதிக்க பலர் முயற்சி செய்வது நேற்று இன்றா நடைபெறுகிறது? என்றைக்காவது அவரை அவமதிக்க நினைத்தவர்கள் எண்ணம் ஈடேறியிருக்கிறதா? அவர்கள் மூக்குடைபட்டு போவது தானே நடைபெறுகிறது?
தலைவரை இழிவு செய்யும் இந்த கட்டுரைக்கு வரும் பின்னூட்டங்கள் ஒரு பெரிய காமெடி.. அதுல தலைவருக்கு நடிக்க தெரியாது.. அப்படி.. இப்படின்னு.. ஒரே தமாசு தான் போங்க.. இவங்க எல்லாம் தலைவரோடா 1975, 1980களில் வந்த திரைப்படங்களை பார்த்திருக்க மாட்டாங்க.. ஒரு நல்ல நடிகர், ஸ்டைல், மசாலா என்று அவதாரம் எடுத்ததே ரசிகர்களாகிய நம்முடைய மகிழ்ச்சிக்காகத் தானே? இவர்களுக்கெல்லாம் அது எங்கே தெரியப் போகிறது...
இன்னோரு காமெடி என்னான்னா தலைவர் தமிழ் திரைப்பட நடிகர் என்பதால், தமிழையும் தமிழ் மக்களையும் இழிவு செய்யும் வகையில் பின்னூட்டங்களை அந்தக் கட்டுரையில் சில பேர் போட்டிருக்காங்க. நான் கேக்குறேன்.. இதுக்க்க்கு மட்டும் தான் தலைவர் தமிழரா? வேறேதாவதுன்னா கன்னடர், மராட்டியா? போங்கடா நீங்களும் உங்க கொள்கையும்.
இதையெல்லாம் அனுமதிக்கும் அந்த தளத்தின் நோக்கம் என்ன? சீப் பப்ளிசிட்டி தானே.. இது தான் காலம் காலமா நடக்குதே.. பெயர் தெரியாதவனெல்லாம் ஃபேமஸாகனும்னா தலைவரை திட்றது தானே குறுக்கு வழி?
என்ன செய்ய... பழுத்த மரம் தானே கல்லடிபடும்.... அப்படியாவது அந்த கட்டுரையாளரின் அல்ப சந்தோசம் நிறைவேறினால் சரி தான். அப்படியாவது அந்த தளத்தை நிறைய பேர் பார்வையிட்டுவிட்டு போகட்டும். நம் தலைவரை நன்கு அறிந்தவர்களுக்கு தெரியும்.. வழக்கம் போல இந்த முறையும் இவர்களை போன்றவர்களை அவர் மன்னித்து விடுவார். அது தான் அவரின் உயர்ந்த உள்ளம்.
மலையை பார்த்து எதுவோ என்னவோ செய்தால் அது மலைக்கு இழிவு இல்லை.. நம் அண்ணாமலைக்கு இழிவு இல்லை...
ஆயிரம் கைகள் மறைத்து நின்றாலும் சூரியன் மறைவதில்லை.. ஒரே சூரியன். ஒரே சந்திரன். ஒரே சூப்பர் ஸ்டார்.
அந்த தளத்தின் பெயரையும் கட்டுரைக்கான வலை முகவரியையும் வெளியிட்டால், அது கூட அவர்களுக்கு தேவையற்ற விளம்பரமாகிவிடும். தலைவரின் ரசிகர்களாகிய நாம், இவர்களை போன்றவர்களை முற்றிலும் புறக்கணிப்பது தான் நாம் அவர்களுக்கு தரும் சரியான பாடமாக இருக்கும்.

Tollywood second best grosser Super Star Rajnikanth's 'Robo' has recently completed 50 days run. The movie collected 37 Crores share in its full run in A.P. and stands as the second biggest hit of A.P.
People may expect this record hit movie could have run 50 days in many centers. But this is not a Tollywood star hero's movie and also the producer is not interested in the long run. So, it was lifted out from many theaters across the state even before completing 50 days.
In Vizag city the movie ran just for 46 days, but it got 80+ lakhs of huge share in the city. As per the reports the movie ran 50 days in just 70+ centers in Andhra Pradesh.

சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் கலாநிதி மாறன் பிரம்மாண்ட தயாரிப்பில் பிரம்மாண்ட இயக்குனர் ஷங்கர் இயக்கிய சூப்பர் ஸ்டாரின் எந்திரன் திரைப்படம் உலகம் முழுக்க 50 நாட்களை கடந்து வெற்றி நடைபோடுகிறது. கடந்த அக்டோபர் 1-ம் தேதி உலகம் முழுக்க 3000 திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகி வசூலில் புதிய சரித்திரம் படைத்தது. உள்நாடு, வெளிநாடு இரண்டிலும் சேர்த்து இந்தப் படத்தின் மொத்த வசூல் ரூ 350 கோடி என அறிவிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
இந்தியாவிலேயே அதிக பொருட்செலவில் தயாரான படம் மட்டுமல்ல... இந்தியாவிலேயே அதிக வசூலைக் குவித்த படமும் எந்திரனே. தெலுங்கில் புதிய வசூல் சாதனை நிகழ்த்தியுள்ள ரோபோ, இன்னும் பல திரையரங்குகளில் ஓடிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது. ஆந்திராவில் மகதீரா படத்தின் வசூல் சாதனையை முறியடித்துள்ளது ரோபோ. குஜராத், ஹரியானா போன்ற வெளி மாநிலங்கள், பிரிட்டன், அமெரிக்கா உள்ளிட்ட வெளிநாடுகளிலும் சில குறிப்பிட்ட திரையரங்குகளில் மட்டும் இந்தப் படம் 50 நாட்களைக் கடந்து ஓடிக் கொண்டிருப்பதாக சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் தரப்பில் தெரிவிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
விரைவில் எந்திரன் படத்தை ஜப்பானில் வெளியிடும் முயற்சிகளில் உள்ளது சன் பிக்சர்ஸ்.
அரிமா அரிமா பாடலில் ரஜினியை வைரமுத்து சிலிக்கான் சிங்கம் என எழுதியுள்ளார். இந்த சிலிக்கான் சிங்கத்திற்கு ஓய்வு கிடையாது என்பதை எந்திரன் நிரூபித்துள்ள

Robot
A mega budget movie, 'Robot' can easily be called the most exciting film of the year. A super duper success, 'Robot' stands on the able shoulders of the mega star Rajinikanth. Aishwarya provides the glamour. There was another star in the film, the breath-taking special effects.

Yahoo! India Year in Review 2010 : Why Rajini is Boss?
2010-Dec-03
When Rajini says the sun revolves around the earth, you don’t question him – you take his words as gospel. Because he is the ‘Boss’ and can split a bullet in two and aim it at two different people. So when Robot Chitti shoots a million bullets and brings an entire city to a halt, you don’t get surprised – you just accept it. Yes, we are talking about ‘Endhiran/Robot’, where Superstar Rajinikanth enthralled audiences across the world in 2010.
We need to thank not just Shankar but a host of other artists who opted out of the movie – Kamal Haasan, Shahrukh Khan, to name two; else, we wouldn’t have been able to see The Boss in this movie. If Apple is considered the most fanatically followed brand in the world, we have one right here in India which can give even Apple a run for its money on its best day, and that’s Brand Rajini.
The pre-release hype for 'Endhiran/Robot lasted almost a year. It’s the costliest film ever made in Indian cinema. But when the film released, it broke all records. In Chennai, fans queued up as early as five in the morning to get tickets to the superstar’s flick. Now we all know Rajini is a global phenomenon. In USA, the film’s premiere show tickets were sold for $40. The fanfare doesn't stop at buying tickets, though. Rajinikanth's worshippers even climbed as many as 500 stairs to temples to pray for the success of the film. Advance booking usually opens three days before a big release in India, but, in this case, it opened a good 10 days prior to the movie’s release.
After crippling losses with his earlier films like 'Baba', Rajnikanth appears in 'Endhiran' sans a lot of his trademark gimmickry, something that made him much less an actor than what he probably is capable of. As scientist Vaseegaran - engaged in a decade-long struggle to create an android robot that will not only look exactly like him, but also feel the most basic human emotions, such as love, anger and revenge - Rajnikanth impresses to a great degree.
The film did have Shankar’s touch with excellent graphics and brilliant cinematography by Rathnavelu, but the film’s talking point was clearly Rajini’s performance as Chitti –The Robot. Rajini steals the show as Chitti, goofy in the beginning and exuding menace with his expressive body language and eyes in the second half. We all know that when it is a Rajini flick, it is a complete movie-watching experience.
Wikipedia says the film collected an unprecedented amount of Rs 62 crore in its opening week, becoming the highest-grossing Tamil film and the second highest-grossing Indian film of all time. Rajinikanth’s movies have always been a runaway success in the south, but this was the first time when Bollywood saw fans across India going to theatres to catch a glimpse of "Namma Thalaivar".
After 'Endhiran', we know Rajni can now build an Eiffel Tower in paltry seconds. So when Rajini decides to grace the silver screen in a new venture, you know you just have to bow and meekly pay the price of a ticket.

எந்திரன்… பிரபலங்களின் பார்வையில்
2010-Dec-03
சமீப காலமாக ஒவ்வொரு பிரஸ் மீட் அல்லது சினிமா நிகழ்ச்சி முடிவிலும் பிரபலங்களிடம் நாம் தவறாமல் கேட்கும் கேள்வி:
ரஜினியின் எந்திரன் பார்த்துவிட்டீர்களா… உங்கள் கருத்தென்ன?
கிட்டத்தட்ட 1 மாதத்துக்கும் மேல் நாம் கேட்டுப் பெற்ற அந்த கருத்துக்களின் தொகுப்பு இது.
நடிகர் வடிவேலு:
என்னன்னு சொல்லச் சொல்றீங்க… நம்ம ஆயுசுல இந்த மாதிரி ஒரு படத்தை தமிழ்ல பாப்போமான்னு ஏங்கிட்டு இருந்தோம்னே. அண்ணன் சூப்பர் ஸ்டாரும், ஷங்கர் சாரும், நம்ம கலாநிதி மாறனும் அதை நடத்திக் காட்டியிருக்காங்க.
என்னா படம், என்னா ஒரு நடிப்பு… என்ன ஒரு பிரமாண்டம்… அந்த சிட்டியா வராறே அண்ணன்… மிரட்டிட்டார்னே. கேமரா முன்னாடி வர்ற வரைக்கும் பசு மாதிரி ஒண்ணும் தெரியாதவர் மாதிரிதான் இருப்பார். ஆனா வந்துட்டார்னா… 100 அடி பாயுற புலின்னே அவர்… அவருக்கு நிகரான ஒரு நடிகரே கிடையாது போங்கண்ணே…!
-சொன்னா நம்புங்க… இதை ஒரே மூச்சில் சொல்லி நிறுத்தி சிரித்தார் வைகைப் புயல்!
நடிகர் சிம்பு:
நான் அடிப்படையில ரஜினி சார் பேன். ஸ்கூல் புக்ஸை படிச்சதைவிட அவர் படத்தைத்தான் அதிகமா பார்த்தேன். அவரோட அத்தனை படங்களின் பெயர்களையும் என்னால வரிசையா சொல்ல முடியும். ஸ்கிரீன்ல அவர் வந்து நின்னாலே, ஒரு வைப்ரேஷன் வந்துடும். நடிகர் என்பதற்கு மேல… ரசிகர்கள் அவரை கடவுளா பார்க்குறாங்கன்னா அது சும்மா இல்லை… நிஜமான பீல் அது.
அவதார் பார்த்துட்டு பிரமிச்சுப் போய் நின்னேன். அதே உணர்வுதான் எந்திரன் முடிஞ்ச பிறகு எனக்கு வந்தது.
ரஜினி சார் – ஷங்கர் சார்… சூப்பர் சார்!!
நடிகர் விவேக்:
கலைஞனுக்கு வயசில்லை என்று சொல்வார்கள். அதை ஒவ்வொரு முறையும் நிரூபிக்கிறார் நம்ம சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினி சார். எந்திரன் படத்தை இந்திய சினிமாவின் உச்சம்னு தைரியமா, தாராளமா, உரக்க சத்தம்போட்டுச் சொல்லலாம்… சொல்லணும்.
கலாம் ஐயா சொன்னமாதி, பெரிசா கனவு கண்டு, காத்திருந்து அதை நிஜமாக்கியிருக்காரு ஷங்கர். ரொம்ப பெரிய சாதனை இது.
இயக்குநர் ராம நாராயணன்:
இது ஒரு மிகச் சிறந்த படைப்பு. உயர்ந்த தொழில்நுட்பத்தையும் கருத்தையும் ஒரு உயர்வான கலைஞனை வைத்து வெளிப்படுத்தியிருக்கிறார் இயக்குநர் ஷங்கர்.
இந்தியாவிலேயே மிகச் சிறந்த படம் என ஒரு தமிழ்ப் படம் பாராட்டப்படுவதை மகிழ்ச்சியோடு பார்க்கிறோம். அருமை நண்பரும் இந்திய சூப்பர் ஸ்டாராக இருந்து உலக சூப்பர் ஸ்டாராக மாறியிருப்பவருமான ரஜினிக்கு வாழ்த்துக்களைத் தெரிவித்துக் கொள்கிறேன். தமிழ் சினிமாவை தலை நிமிர வைத்திருக்கிறார்கள் ரஜினியும் ஷங்கரும்.
இயக்குநர் கே பாக்யராஜ்:
ரஜினி என் பெஸ்ட் ஃபிரண்ட். மேம்போக்கா பாத்தா, அவர் பெருசா திட்டம் போடாத மாதிரியும், அப்படியே சாதாரணமா இருக்கிற மாதிரியும்தான் தெரியும். ஆனா உண்மை அதல்ல… அவர் ஒவ்வொண்ணையும் பக்காவா திட்டமிட்டு வெற்றிகரமாக செய்யக் கூடிய மனிதர். ஒரு வெற்றிகரமான மனிதர், தன்னை வெளிப்படையா அப்படி காமிச்சிக்கமாட்டாங்களாம். அவங்கதான் புத்திசாலியும் கூட. ரஜினி சார் அப்படித்தான்.
நான் லேட்டா வந்தாலும் லேட்டஸ்டா வருவேன்- னு அவரோட ஒரு வசனம் இருக்கும். எனக்கென்னமோ அது எழுதிக் கொடுத்துப் பேசின வசனமாவே தெரியல!
இந்த எந்திரன் படத்தை ஒரு இயக்குநரா பெருமையா பாக்குறேன். அதே நேரம் ஒரு இயக்குநர் ஆட்டுவிச்சமாதிரியெல்லாம் ஆடிய ரஜினி சாரை புது மரியாதையோட பாக்குறேன். இன்னிக்கு இருக்கிற ஆர்ட்டிஸ்டுங்க அத்தனைபேரும் ரஜினி சாரைப் பாத்து, ஒரு இயக்குநரை எப்படி மதிக்கணும்னு கத்துக்கணும்.
இந்த மனுசன் நினைச்சிருந்தா… இதெல்லாம் வேணாம்யா.. எதுக்கு ரிஸ்குன்னு சொல்லிட்டுப் போயிருப்பார். ஆனா, ஒரு 25 வயசு ஹீரோ கூட செய்ய தயங்கற பல ஸ்டன்ட் காட்சிகளை தானே வலியப் போய், கஷ்டத்தை அனுபவிச்சுகிட்டு நடிச்சிருக்கார். இதுதான் சினிமா தொழிலுக்கே பெருமை சேர்க்குது.
ரஜினி செய்ற ஒவ்வொண்ணும் நம்மாளுங்களுக்கும் நம்ம சினிமாவுக்கும் பெருமைதான்!
அவ்ளோதானான்னு கேக்கறது புரியுது… கொஞ்சம் ப்ரேக்… சாயங்காலம் மீதி!

‘Endhiran’ releases in Fiji Islands
IndiaGlitz [Thursday, December 09, 2010]
The fine run of ‘Endhiran’ is not over yet. The trumpet blast over the film released in October is still heard loud and of late in Fiji Islands.
An Indo-UK based production house High Ground Enterprise has released the Hindi version of ‘Endhiran’ ‘Robot’ in the Fiji Islands. The film was released to full houses in four theatres, they said.
The Fiji Islands, situated to the east of New Zealand, have a significant population of Indian origin consisting of ethnic Tamilians and mainly North Indians.
High Ground has stated that the local government authorities were present at the first show of the movie to show their support and appreciation.
Here is yet another land conquered by the phenomenon of Rajinikanth.

Yesterday night i got a chance to watch Enthiran(7th time in theater) with my roommate .. this time i watched the film very closely.. by that time i noticed some small mistakes/carelessness/editing.. அவற்றுள் சில:
1. Metro train stunt: சிட்டிக்கு battery low வந்து, அப்புறம் திரும்ப recharge பண்ணி, ஓடி வருவாரு.. அப்போ opposite -ல ஒரு train வரும்.. அது மேலையும் ஏறி round அடிச்சு ஓடுவாரு..அப்போ பார்தீங்கனா, aish இருக்கும் metro ஒரே ஒரு shot -ல மட்டும் Rose கலர்-ல வரும்..
2. Chitti chasing: நம்ம சிட்டி சனாவ கடத்தி கார்-ல(TN09 BB 11) கூட்டிகிட்டு போகும் போது, chasing -ஓட starting -ல ஒரு accident(அட ரெண்டு காரும் dishum-dishum) ஆகும்.. அப்போ காரோட நம்பர் plate ரெண்டா உடஞ்சி பாதி மட்டும் இருக்கும்.. next shot -ல இருந்து நம்பர் plate, as usual fresh-a இருக்கும்..
3. Chitti song: பூம் பூம் ரோபோ song -ல, வளைகாப்பு function -ல நம்ம சிட்டி சமையல் பண்ணி முடிச்சதும் ஒரு Red கலர் குடைமிளகாய்-a போட்டு finish பண்ணுவாரு..next shot -ல அது kitchen -ல, எங்கையுமே இருக்காது..
இவ்வளவு பெரிய படத்துல, சின்ன சின்ன mistakes இருக்குறது சகஜம் தான்.. இருந்தாலும் சொல்லணும்-னு தோணிச்சு.. அதான்..
Really a great work done by the team.. njoyed d film very much.. hats off to u.. source:shankar blog

Got the DVD (official), nice 3-Dish cover and calender inside. But content was disappointing. No Extras But I guess, to add extras like making off might require additional DVD and more cost. Our folks here don't mind paying hundreds for that overrated bourbon, but no way they are going to pay extra ten or twenty bucks for additional DVD.
Films works okay on smaller screen, but the poor CG parts still looks poor.

Wow!! with the black pyjama, Rajini looks astonishing (that silky hair)!!. I thought it was from some old movies where he acted as a villain, Aadu Puli Aattam, Moondru Mudichu, Mangudi minor, Gayathri... I can't forget those movies...

Jaishankar co-starred with Villain Rajini only once - Gayathri. The still could very well be from that film but for the beard. I have only seen 'vaazhvE maayamaa' from Gayathri and he was not sporting a beard.
Other films with Jaishankar, AFAIK:
1. Murattu Kaalai
2. Garjanai (Havent seen)
3. Thanikattu Raja
4. Maveeran
5. Thalapathi
6. Adutha vaarisu
7. Paayum Puli

ரஜினியுடன் நடித்தது வாழ்நாள் பெருமை! – ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய்
என் வாழ்நாளில் மறக்க முடியாத ஹீரோ ரஜினிதான். அவருடன் இணைந்து நடித்தது எனது வாழ்நாள் பெருமை, என்றார் ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய்.
சென்னையில் நடந்த நிகழ்ச்சி ஒன்றில் கலந்து கொள்வதற்காக ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய் வந்தார். அவரைப் பார்த்ததும் ரசிகர்கள் சூழ்ந்து கொண்டனர். சேர்ந்து போட்டோ எடுக்கவும், ஆட்டோகிராப் வாங்கவும் போட்டி் போட்டனர்.
ரசிகர்களின் அந்த அன்பில் நெகிழ்ந்த ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய், நீண்ட நேரம் அவர்களுடன் செலவழித்தார். ஆட்டோகிராப் போட்டுத் தந்தார்.
நிருபர்களுக்கும் பேட்டியளித்தார். கடந்த ஆண்டு அவருக்கு அமைந்த ஒரே ஹிட் எந்திரன்தான். அதுபற்றி கேட்டபோது, “ரஜினியுடன் ‘எந்திரன்’ படத்தில் நடித்த வாய்ப்பை என் வாழ்நாள் பெருமையாகக் கருதுகிறேன். இதற்கு முன்பும் சில முறை அவருடன் இணைந்து நடிக்க சந்தர்ப்பம் வந்து, நடக்காமல் போனது. அது இப்படியொரு பெருமை எனக்குக் கிடைக்க வேண்டும் என்பதற்காகத்தான் போலிருக்கிறது.
தமிழக ரசிகர்கள் என் மீது பேரன்பு காட்டுகின்றனர். இதை பார்க்கும்போது சந்தோஷமாக இருக்கிறது.
ரஜினி ஒரு நிஜமான சூப்பர் ஸ்டார். ஒரு சர்வதேச கலைஞர். அவரை மொழி, நாடு கடந்து எல்லோரும் விரும்புகின்றனர். அவரைப் போன்ற திறமையான நடிகரை நான் பார்த்ததில்லை. மிகுந்த அர்ப்பணிப்போடு தனது பணியைச் செய்பவர் அவர். படப்பிடிப்பு அரங்கில் அவர் நடவடிக்கைகளை பார்த்து வியந்து இருக்கிறேன். மிகப்பெரிய நடிகர் என்பதை அவர் எப்போதும் காட்டிக் கொண்டதே இல்லை. எளிமையாக பழகுவார்.
ரஜினியோடு நடித்தபோது எனக்குக் கிடைத்த அனுபவங்கள் மறக்க முடியாதவை. மிகவும் பயனுள்ளவை. நடிப்பில் என்னை மெருகுபடுத்திக் கொள்ளவும், செய்யும் வேலையை நேசிக்கவும் அவரிடம் கற்றுக் கொண்டேன். இதனை என் ஆயுளில் மறக்கமாட்டேன். இப்படி ஒரு வாய்ப்பை எனக்குத் தந்த சூப்பர்ஸ்டாருக்கும் ஷங்கருக்கும், என்னை இந்த அளவு மரியாதையோடு நடத்தும் தமிழ் மக்களுக்கும் நான் எப்படி நன்றி கூறுவேன்!”, என்றார்.

From rediff's top 5 actors for 2010:
http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-s...0/20101214.htmIs there anything left to be said about a man who, at 61, still manages to star in one of the most successful films of the year, not just in the south, but across India? Superstar Rajni once again proved that he is the actor with the Midas touch with the sci-fi flick Endhiran, where he played an ambitious scientist, a na ve robot and an evil android bent on destroying the world.
He did it with such aplomb that he's been the talk of the town for months. He might do one film in two years, but when he does, he pulls out all the stops.

பிரபல ஃபோர்ப்ஸ் இந்தியா இதழின் 2010-ம் ஆண்டின் சிறந்த மனிதர்களுள் ஒருவராக சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினிகாந்த் தேர்வு செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளார்.
சர்வதேச அளவில் மிகப் புகழ்பெற்ற பத்திரிகை ஃபோர்ப்ஸ். வர்த்தக உலகின் மிக முக்கியமாகப் பார்க்கப்படுகின்றது. இந்த பத்திரிகையின் இந்தியப் பதிப்பின் 2010 -ம் ஆண்டு சிறப்பிதழ் வெளியாகியுள்ளது.
இதில் தொழிலதிபர் ஆனந்த் மஹிந்திரா, பீகாரின் சாதனை முதல்வர் நிதீஷ்குமார், மத்திய அமைச்சர் அமைச்சர் ஜெய்ராம் ரமேஷ், 3 இடியட்ஸ் தந்த ராஜ்குமார் ஹிராணி என 2010-ம் ஆண்டில் பல துறைகளில் சாதனைப் படைத்தவர்களின் பெயர்கள் அடங்கிய பட்டியல் வெளியாகியுள்ளது. அந்தப் பட்டியலில் எந்திரன் மூலம் சாதனை படைத்த ரஜினியின் பெயரும் இடம்பெற்றுள்ளது.
மேலும் தனது கட்டுரையில், 'இருபது ஆண்டுகள் கழித்து மீண்டும் வந்தார்... பாலிவுட்டை வென்றார்', என்று புகழாரம் சூட்டியுள்ளது.
அதுமட்டுமல்ல, இந்திய அளவில் வசூலில் முதலிடம் எந்தப் படம் என்பதையும் தெளிவாக்கியுள்ளது இந்த பத்திரிகை. இதுவரை வசூலில் முதலிடத்தில் இருந்த ராஜ்குமார் ஹிரானியின் 3 இடியட்ஸ் படத்தை, ரஜினியின் எந்திரன் இரண்டாம் இடத்துக்குத் தள்ளிவிட்டதாக குறிப்பிட்டுள்ளனர்

ஐஐஎம் கல்வி நிறுவன பாடமாக ரஜினியின் முத்து,
ஐஐஎம் கல்வி நிறுவன பாடமாக ரஜினியின் முத்து, எந்திரன்!!p
சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினி நடித்த எந்திரன் மற்றும் முத்து திரைப்படங்களை அகமதாபாத்தின் புகழ்பெற்ற இந்தியன் இன்ஸ்டிட்யூட் ஆப் மேனேஜ்மெண்ட் (IIM) மாணவர்களுக்கு தனி பாடமாகவே வைத்திருக்கிறார்கள்.
ஐஐஎம் முதுகலைப் பட்ட மாணவர்களுக்கு எலெக்டிவ் கோர்ஸாக 'Contemporary film industry: A business perspective' என்ற பிரிவில் இந்தியத் திரைப்படங்கள் குறித்து ஆராய்ந்து கட்டுரை எழுதவேண்டும். இது ஒரு தனி பாடப் பிரிவாகும்.
இந்தப் பிரிவில் இரண்டு படங்கள் இடம்பெற்றுள்ளன. இந்த இரண்டின் நாயகனும் ரஜினிதான். இந்தப் படங்களில் ஒன்று முத்து. மற்றொன்று எந்திரன் / ரோபோ.
முத்து திரைப்படம் சர்வதேச அளவில் சாதனைப் படைத்த முதல் இந்தியப் படமாகும். டான்சிங் மகாராஜா எனும் பெயரில் இந்தப் படம் ஜப்பானில் வெளியாகி 250 நாட்களுக்கும் மேல் ஓடி பெரும் சாதனைப் படைத்தது. இந்தியப் படங்களுக்கு வெளிநாடுகளில் மார்க்கெட் உள்ளதை நிரூபித்து, புதிய வர்த்தகத்தைக் காட்டிய படம் முத்து. ரஜினியின் நடனமும், ரஹ்மானின் இசையும் சர்வதேச மக்களையும் ஆட்டி வைத்தன.
அடுத்த படமான எந்திரன், ரஜினியை இந்திய சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் என்ற வட்டத்திலிருந்து உலக சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் என்ற உச்சத்துக்குக் கொண்டுபோனது. ரூ 380 கோடி வரை வசூலைக் குவித்து இந்தியாவின் நம்பர் ஒன் படம் என்ற பெருமையைப் பெற்றுள்ளது.
ஒரு படத்தை பொருத்தமான நடிகர்களைக் கொண்டு திட்டமிட்டு தரமாக உருவாக்குதல், சரியாக மார்க்கெட்டிங் செய்தல், வர்த்தகத்தில் முதல் நிலையில் கொண்டுவந்து நிறுத்துதல், இவை அனைத்துக்கும் மேல், இந்தப் படங்களை ரஜினி என்ற சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் வெற்றி பெறச் செய்த விதம் போன்ற பல காரணிகளுக்காக இந்தப் படங்களை முதுகலைப் பட்டதாரிகளுக்கு பாடங்களாக வைத்துள்ளனர்.
ஏற்கெனவே மத்திய அரசின் சிபிஎஸ்ஸி பள்ளி பாடத் திட்டத்திலும் மாணவர்களுக்கு பாடமாக ரஜினியின் வாழ்க்கை வரலாறு வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது நினைவிருக்கலாம்.
இதுவரை எந்த இந்திய நடிகருக்கும் கிடைக்காத பெரும் அங்கீகாரம் இது. ஐஐஎம் என்பது உலக அளவில் வணிக மேலாண்மைப் படிப்புக்கு புகழ்பெற்ற ஒரு கல்வி மையம். இங்கு பிஸினஸ் மேனேஜ்மெண்ட் படிப்பில் சேர கேட் (common admission test) என்ற தனி நுழைவுத் தேர்வு எழுதவேண்டும். இந்த தேர்வில் தேர்ச்சி பெறுவது மிகக் கடினமான ஒன்று

South superstar Rajinikanth`s ‘Robot’ a part of IIM-A curriculum
Ahmedabad: After amusing a generation of fans with his trademark antics - somersaulting cigarette and a pair of shades tricks and romancing female stars onscreen half his age, Rajinikanth’s latest Box Office hit ‘Robot’ is all set to become a part of IIM-Ahmedabad’s syllabus.
Rajinikanth’s ‘Robot’ or ‘Enthiran’ will be a part of an elective course called ‘Contemporary film industry: A business perspective’, which will be offered in the postgraduate programme at IIM-Ahmedabad.
The film will be read as a case study to analyse the success of cinema. The course will also include another Rajinikanth starrer film ‘Muthu’, which was later translated into Japanese as ‘Muthu Odoru Maharaja’ or ‘Muthu: The Dancing Maharaja’.

Enthiran goes to IIM:
The Rajinikanth starrer Enthiran (Robot in Hindi), is all set to go to the laboratory of IIM-Ahmedabad, the premiere business school in Asia.
Students at the business school will take up the movie as a case study to analyse and understand the business of cinema and its success story.
This is part of 'Contemporary film industry: A business perspective'.
Famous Tamil producer Kandaswamy Bharathan who passed out of IIM in 1978 said: "The course content reflects improvement based on what is happening in the industry. There is a need for professional managers who understand the dynamics of film production".

‘Enthiran’ – A film that everybody rejected
Sharadha Narayanan Express News
CHENNAI:
What would you think of a film that had a storyline that was earlier rejected by several quarters; a film that was struck by economic recession soon after the shooting began; a film that changed producers because of want of funds; and a film that took three years to be completed?
It had all the hallmarks of a box office disaster waiting to happen. But here’s the twist. This jinxed project turned into a blitzkrieg and changed the face of the Indian film industry, as far as sci-fi filmmaking is concerned. That’s the story of ‘Enthiran’.
The numbers say it all: The Rs 200-crore Rajni-Aishwarya starrer, the costliest Indian film ever made, reaped over Rs 300 crore within a fortnight of its release.
It was simultaneously released in the highest number of theatres, a whopping 3,000 screens. In Chennai, ‘Enthiran’ opened to over 200 shows a day.
Casting legends in the film industry - from Rajnikanth to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and AR Rahman — ‘Enthiran’ was meant to display the might of both the actors and the production house, Sun Pictures, who entered film production through it.
In another first, a reported Rs 60 crore was devoted entirely to promote this technically path-breaking film. It helped make the film Indian cinema’s highest grosser. The release of nearly a dozen Tamil films was put off or advanced so as not to compete with the magnum opus.
Rajni never likes promoting his flicks, perhaps one reason why he continues to be an enigma to fans. ‘Enthiran’ changed that for good as he did not miss any opportunity — from the small screen to radio stations — to offer promotional interviews ahead of the release. (((Idhu eppO? I thing he was present in audio launch of all three languages +1 exclusive with Sun TV. That is all))) Rajni shared the spotlight at all occasions with producer Kalanithi Maran.
In an industry where the superstar was seen as bigger than the product itself, ‘Enthiran’ charted a new course. And these efforts more than paid off. ‘Enthiran’ scripted success not only in Tamil, where the superstar reigns supreme, but in Bollywood as well. It beat Aamir Khan’s ‘3 Idiots’ hands down at the box office.
Apart from raising the bar for Tamil films in terms of technical brilliance, ‘Enthiran’ has just crossed another milestone: it was included as a case study for film success in the curriculum of the best B-school in India — IIM Ahmadabad.
Better distribution network
“‘Enthiran’ came as the savior for theatre owners, who had seen only one hit film so far this year in the State, ‘Singam’. ‘Enthiran’ was distributed in such a way that theatre owners did not lose money. We, the theatre owners, are going to convene a meeting in early January to discuss how films next year can be released with similar mechanisms. By regulating the release of films in the future, we want to ensure that screening films remains a profitable venture,” says Sridhar, joint secretary, Tamil Nadu Theatre Owners Association.

The Robot who ruled over Kollywood
CHENNAI: Suriya roared with Singam', Vijay sank without a trace with Sura', Simbhu started calling himself STR and underwent an image change with Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya', and Arya gave us the immortal catch-phrase Nanben Da' in Boss Engira Baskaran'. But one robot towered over them all in 2010. In an age where producers pop the champagne and paste posters all around town celebrating 10 day-runs of their movies, Enthiran', which was released worldwide on October 1, is still bringing in the crowds in many theatres.
In a year which defied all predictions and trends, audiences revelled in the diversity on offer, making movies of many genres successful (see box on Top 5 winners and losers). Among them were Chimbudeven's Irumbu Kottai Murattu Singam', a throwback to the Western costume dramas of the 1950s and 1960s; C S Amudhan's Tamizh Padam', the first spoof to be made in Tamil cinema; Vijay's Madrasapattinam', which took the viewers on a trip down memory lane by showing a love story between a British woman and a washerman in the then Madras province; Lingusamy's Paiyya', a road movie; and Prabusolomon's Mynaa', which faithfully followed the visual and cinematic language of the Madurai-based village romances.
In the midst of such movies, Enthiran' strode like a colossus, transcending barriers of age and gender, caste and class, and north and south, to establish its supremacy at the box office. With this, Superstar' Rajinikanth reiterated his cult status not only in India, but also in other parts of the world. But not counting the box-office draw of Rajini and the musical score by Oscar-winner A R Rahman, there was another reason for the monstrous success of the Shankar-directed magnum opus the visual effects.
Enthiran' was a trailblazer in that it was the first movie in India to have used animatronics (the use of mechanised puppets to simulate living beings, for example the dinosaurs used in Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park') as also the light stage technology' (the realistic face scanning captures how an actor's face looks when lit from every possible direction, which is then used to reproduce the colour, texture and shade of the actor's skin during computer graphics work). It was also only the fourth movie in the world and the first in South Asia to use the light stage' systems after Spiderman-II', The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' and Avataar'.
But the most interesting fact is that all the special effects work was carried out on a budget that was minuscule compared to those of Hollywood biggies. As Srinivas Mohan, who was the visual effects supervisor of Enthiran', says, "Hollywood sci-fi movies are made on budgets of around Rs 1,000 crores, but mine was only about 40% of the whole budget of Enthiran', which was around Rs 160 crores."
Though Hollywood expertise was used the animatronics was handled by the Stan Winston studios, who have worked on movies such as Terminator', Predator', Batman Returns' and Jurassic Park'; and some computer graphics (CG) work was given to companies there almost 60% of the work was handled by Indian Artists. Mohan also outsourced parts of the CG work to Indian companies and freelance experts in all parts of the world, including Hong Kong, the UK, France and Iran.
Another innovation, says Mohan, whose company Indian Artists won the National Award for Special Effects in 2007 for Sivaji' and earlier in 2002 for Magic Magic', was the preparation of a three-dimensional animated storyboard. "Shankar explained the entire story in detail, and how he wanted each scene to be shot. This took us more than six months but once it was ready, the actual shooting process became a lot easier for everyone involved like director Shankar, cinematographer Rathnavelu, art director Sabu Cyril, editor Anthony and even the light boy as we all knew what we were going to do. So there was no wastage of camera stock or time."
Besides showcasing the capabilities of visual effects and CG talent in India, what Enthiran' has also achieved is in creating greater awareness in the film industry and also the public about their work. "Earlier, I used to get calls from directors asking for Matrix-type action sequences in their movies, and that too to be readied in two or three days." But now, there is awareness that such sequences require a lot of planning and background work, he says.
"It has also given the industry and producers in India enough confidence that movies with sci-fi themes and those that involve a lot of special effects can be made here and become successful too. Now there is more willingness to invest in such projects," says Mohan.
To tap into the talent pool available here, companies such as DreamWorks Pictures, Sony Pictures Imageworks and Rhythm & Hues have opened shop and have ramped up recruitment from the country.
But what is lacking is infrastructure and government support for the animation and special effects industry. "In the next three-five years, the industry is poised to grow four to five times than what it is now. Though a lot of outsourcing is happening in this field like in the IT industry, we are not getting any perks that the software sector gets," he says.
If this were to change, who knows the next Avataar' could very well be made in India.

From Sify's top 12 directors:
http://www.sify.com/movies/Top-12-di...g.html#galname
No: 1 - Shankar
Shankar can be called the Showman of South Indian Cinema. What makes him numero uno is that he has an awesome track record and is a big budget survivor.
His joining hands with Rajinikanth has worked big time at the box office with Sivaji and latest Endhiran, which created new collection records.
The filmmaker in him constantly reinvents himself with every film. He understands how to mix the commercial ingredients of a superstar film with the latest in technology to make them work with all classes of audiences across the globe.
How important is he? Well, one of the shrewdest and smartest actors and filmmakers in the country, Aamir Khan, has agreed in principle to do a film with him!

Biggest hit in Tollywood for 2010.
http://expressbuzz.com/entertainment...10/235159.htmlThe first one to be added to this roster of top five movies of 2010 would definitely be the baap of all movies — ‘Robot’. With people flocking to theatres at Rajni speed, ‘Robot’ harvested Rs 60 crore. Other Telugu films got washed away in Rajni tide, making this movie the highest grosser in Tollywood this year.

If Paramu feels it is a classic for him, it is a classic. Do we have standard definition of classic? Like E=MC square? If not, classic is a POV. thats all.

inda waeld class, classic etc enakku yaarachum esplanason kuduththa puNNiyamA pOgum.
My take is, if it appeals to a large section of people irrespective of being original or inspired and if people talks about it even after 20-30 years, we can call as classic, IRRESPECTIVE of who had acted in that.
Since because a hero who is dubbed or termed as mass / action hero had acted in a movie, there is a tendency to raise questions when their movies are termed as classic.
Intellects (so-called) search the meaning of life.
Common men, live their life.

எந்திரன் குழுவுடன் புத்தாண்டு கொண்டாடியசூப்பர் ஸ்டார்!
2010-ம் ஆண்டை ரஜினியின் ஆண்டாக மாற்றிய எந்திரன் குழுவினரை கவுரவப்படுத்தும் வகையில் இந்தப் புத்தாண்டை அவர்களுடன் கொண்டாடினார் சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினிகாந்த்.
நட்பைப் போற்றுவது, திறமையை மதித்துப் பாராட்டுவது, தன்னை உச்சத்துக்குக் கொண்டு சென்றவர்களை உயரத்தில் வைத்துப் பார்ப்பது…. இந்த உதாரண குணங்களின் இருப்பிடம் நமது சூப்பர் ஸ்டார்.
படம் முடிந்ததா… ஜெயிச்சோமா… அத்துடன் அந்த வெற்றிக்கு உறுதுணையாக இருந்தவர்களை மறந்துவிடுபவர் அல்ல ரஜினி. சந்தர்ப்பம் வாய்க்கும் போதெல்லாம் அவர்களுக்கு சிறப்பு செய்வதில் முதலில் நிற்பவர். அதுதான் அவரை சோதனைகளிலும் மங்காத சாதனையாளராகவே வைத்திருக்கிறது.
எந்திரன் என்ற மிகப்பெரிய வெற்றிப் படத்தைக் கொடுத்த இயக்குநர் ஷங்கர், ஹாலிவுட் கலைஞர்களையும் வியக்க வைத்த ஒளிப்பதிவாளர் ரத்னவேலு, ஸ்டான்வின்ஸ்டன் குழுவினருடன் இணைந்து எந்திரன் விஷுவல் எஃபெக்ட்ஸ் பணிகளை அசத்தலாக செய்த இந்தியன் ஆர்டிஸ்ட் சீனிவாஸ் மோகன் ஆகியோருடன் இணைந்து கேக் வெட்டி புத்தாண்டு தினத்தைக் கொண்டாடினார் சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினி.

Rajinikanth’s Blockbuster Robot in Gemini TV on January 15
South Indian Super Star Rajinikanth, Former Miss World Aishwarya Rai starrer science fiction ‘Robot’ directed by S Shankar is going to be telecasted in Gemini TV on January 15 on the occasion of Sankranthi.
We had been seeing Hindi films being telecasted within 100 days of release in the recent time. Now the trend is spreading to Tollywood and Kollywood.
‘Robot’ was released in Hindi, Telugu and Hindi simultaneously on October 1. It will be touching the 100-day mark on January 8. And, in just a week after it completes the 100-day run, the film is going to be telecasted on small screen.
One main reason behind telecasting the movie so soon is that the TRP ratings of the TV Channel will be more on that day and can reap larger benefits in terms of ad revenues.

You may include the following in the design (make it short and sweet - prefer to be in Tamil) :
a) Our Superstar is the only Indian hero whose movies ran 100 days continuosly in Singapore and they are Chandramukhi, Sivaji and now Endhiran.
b) Join the 100th days celebration at Rex Theater 9pm show.
c) Brought to you by Singapoore Rajini fans (in tamil) with Rajinifans.com logo
Today, i met the Rex theater owner (Mr Narayana) and had a chat with him for 30 mins.
He is so happy about the Endhiran collections and he is proud to make the 100th day celebration even more effectively. Therefore, he has decided to change the 100th celebration to Sat 9pm Rex theater so that more fans can join this celebration. He is going to give a half page ad on sat. He will be using his own design and wording and he may consider our design if necessary. He also informed me that he will be inviting quite number of VIPs from his cinema circle in singapore and also media to cover this event. He is expecting a good crowd and asked us to give full support like 1st day!
Pls join the celebration and we will meet you there at 8pm sat. Make it big!!!

As for AP and Kerala and Blr, enthiran made more money and declared as a bigger hit than boss! Everybody is happy in KL, AP and KA. Better than boss!
But, I think in TN some people (C center theatre owners) lost money because they took a big risk and were greedy
As far as C centers in TN, CM>> Boss> enthiran!
Some theatre owners lost money but not the Sun TV

A pretty old review, but worth reading again
An excerpt:
http://twitchfilm.com/reviews/2010/1...ega-review.phpRajini performs admirably in his three roles, and I have more respect for him because of it. At no point during the film did I ever think that the man under those fabulous costumes and elaborate make-ups was over sixty years old; he still has the energy and appearance of a much younger man, which is one of his great strengths. He has announced that he will no longer be performing in "youth roles", in order to approach characters closer to his own actual age. This is a sad thing, because if Enthiran proves nothing else, it proves that Rajini remains ageless. This film will remain a testament to his awesomeness for all time, for better or for worse.

ஜெமினி டிவியில் சங்கராந்தி ஸ்பெஷலாக 'ரோபோ'!
சன் குழுமத்தின் தெலுங்குச் சேனலான ஜெமினியில் பொங்கலுக்கு சிறப்புத் திரைப்படமாக சூப்பர்ஸ்டாரின் ரோபோ ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது.
எந்திரன் படத்தின் டப்பிங்தான் ரோபோ என்றாலும், ஒரு நேரடி தெலுங்குப் படம் கூட நினைத்துப் பார்க்க முடியாத பெரும் வசூல் சாதனையைச் செய்தது தெலுங்கு ரோபோ. இன்னும் கூட ஆந்திராவின் ஹைதராபாத், திருப்பதி உள்ளிட்ட இடங்களில் நூறாவது நாளை நோக்கி வெற்றி நடை போடுகிறது எந்திரன்.
இந்த நிலையில், வரும் பொங்கலுக்கு சிறப்புத் திரைப்படமாக ரோபோவை ஒளிபரப்பத் திட்டமிட்டுள்ளது சன் நெட்வொர்க். தெலுங்கின் நம்பர் ஒன் சேனலாகத் திகழும் சன் குழுமத்தின் ஜெமினி டிவியில் வரும் ஜனவரி 15-ம் தேதி மகா சங்கராந்தி ஸ்பெஷலாக ஒளிபரப்புகிறார்கள்.
ஆந்திராவைப் பொறுத்தவரை கடந்த தீபாவளி மட்டுமல்ல... இந்த ஆண்டு பொங்கலும் ரஜினியின் ரோபோ ஸ்பெஷல்தான்!
நாளை மறுதினம் 100வது நாள் காணும் ரோபோ, அடுத்த ஒரே வாரத்தில் டிவியில் ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது.

சன் குழுமத்தின் தெலுங்குச் சேனலான ஜெமினியில் பொங்கலுக்கு சிறப்புத் திரைப்படமாக சூப்பர்ஸ்டாரின் ரோபோ ஒளிபரப்பாகிறது.
இது குறித்த விளம்பரங்கள் இப்போதே தூள் பறக்க ஆரம்பித்துள்ளன ஜெமினி தொலைக்காட்சியில்.
எந்திரன் படத்தின் டப்பிங்தான் ரோபோ என்றாலும், ஒரு நேரடி தெலுங்குப் படம் கூட நினைத்துப் பார்க்க முடியாத பெரும் வசூல் சாதனையைச் செய்தது தெலுங்கு ரோபோ. இன்னும் கூட ஆந்திராவின் ஹைதராபாத், திருப்பதி உள்ளிட்ட இடங்களில் நூறாவது நாளை நோக்கி வெற்றி நடை போடுகிறது எந்திரன்.

இந்தி – தெலுங்குப் பட உலகில் படம் வெளியான சில வாரங்களிலேயே டிவியில் ஒளிபரப்பும் போக்கு தொடர்கிறது. விளம்பர வருவாய் மற்றும் கடும் சேனல் போட்டியைச் சமாளிக்கும் உத்தியாக இதனைப் பயன்படுத்துகிறார்கள். தெலுங்கில் எக்கச்சக்க தொலைக்காட்சிகள் வந்து ஜெமினிக்கு போட்டியை ஏற்படுத்தியுள்ளன. குறிப்பாக சாக்ஷி மற்றும் டிவி 9. இந்தப் போட்டியைச் சமாளித்து டிஆர்பி ரேட்டிங்கில் ஒரே தாவாகத் தாவ ரஜினி என்ற துருப்புச் சீட்டை பயன்படுத்துகிறது சன்!

Regarding Bangaloreதிரும்பி வந்த எந்திரன் தொகை
http://www.tamilcinema.com/CINENEWS/...er/081110d.asp
எந்திரன் ரிலீஸ் நேரத்தில் நேரடியாக திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்களுடன் டீலிங் Endhiranவைத்துக் கொண்டது சன். சிறிதளவு முன் பணம் தந்துவிட்டு படத்தை திரையிட்டுக் கொள்வது. அந்த பணத்தை தாண்டி வருகிற கலெக்ஷனை பர்சன்டேஜ் அடிப்படையில் இருவரும் பிரித்துக் கொள்வது என்பதுதான் அந்த டீலிங். இதை விரும்பாத சில திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள் பெரிய தொகையை நாங்கள் இப்பவே கொடுத்துவிடுகிறோம். கலெக்ஷனில் பங்கு கேட்காதீர்கள் என்ற அடிப்படையிலும் படத்தை வாங்கியிருந்தார்கள்.
ரிலீசுக்கு பிறகு சிறியளவு பணத்தை கொடுத்து சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் சொன்ன டீலிங்கை முடித்திருக்கலாமே என்று வருந்தினார்களாம் அவர்கள். தங்கள் எண்ணத்தை சன்னுக்கு தெரிவிக்க, அதனாலென்ன. அதிகப்படியாக வாங்கிய தொகையை திருப்பி தருகிறோம். கலெக்ஷனில் பர்சன்டேஜ் தந்துவிடுங்கள் என்று கூறி பழைய சலுகையையே அவர்களுக்கு அளிக்க முன் வந்தார்களாம்.

And the too early tweets of Sudish Kamath still stays...Though Enthirans and 3 Idiots have garnered most of the noise, it is Hollywood films that has kept the box office ringing in Bangalore this year....Enthiran is an exceptional case but it still is losing money for distributors in Karnataka,” says a top distributor.

Sathya,
Sakala doesnt say it is a loss.. He accepts it is widely reported, visible and accepted that it has broken all records.. sort of he agrees that too.. Sakala , correct me if I am wrong.
he also says there are some losses [actually it is first posted by Thamiz] in A centres too..
which could be true too.. I dont know.. but the only thing I say is this and all we cant control..these are bound to happen for such a big release where there is heavy competition to get the rights.. some could have been greedy, some could have analysed wrongly etc.. why to talk about those now suddenly? and why to give importance to those? Avatar kuuda sila theater ownersku loss koduthu irukkalam?

Thanks Sakala.. thats what I inferred too..but y talk about those losses.. could have been at some places.. it is notihng to do with the movie, star etc etc.. it has to be only dealt with the respective buyer, seller, consumer at that place only.. let us not get too much into that at the time of 100th day..
