Chandramukhi

So last weekend i went to watch Chandramukhi. Thalaivar was awesome....and as usual Thalaivars movie is Thalaivars movie. We were a group of 6...Me,Renga,Shyam,Abbhi,Som and Lavanya. Poor Lavanya ....she expects such high standards of quality from a movie that she has lost/forgotten the art of enjoying a mediocre movie. So the less said about how she liked the movie...the better. Not surprisingly, both me and Renga liked the movie. Shyam was introduced to the world of Rajini worship where anything and everything that Superstar does is awesome. But unlike all the other reports from the US about jam packed theatres and highly vocal followers the theatre i saw the movie in was certainly not jam packed. The Rajini supporters here were subdued. Apart from a few random shouts of Thalaivar vaazhga, it was nothing like watching a Thalaivar movie back home..

As for the movie itself, it was definitely much better than BABA but that isnt saying much is it? The movie was Ok. It could have been made much better with more importance to the central character Jyotika...But then again, how could a Rajini movie give importance to anybody else...I think its time we escape this catch 22. Also, its definitely time he starts taking roles that are his AGE. He definitely looks his age.

Tamil cinema and Vadivelu in particular must at some point or the other stop making such crude and crass jokes that are much more than just suggestive. I didnt find most of Vadivelus attics with the sweeper lady funny at all. In fact i found it repelling. Anyways, i also do realize that , that is change that is not gonna happen overnight..But it needs to.

It would be great to watch a Rajini Kamal movie sometime soon.....Hope they can work something out. And best of all the movie should be a comedy...
