Sivaji The BOSS
Quick, Guess what the word BOSS stands for: Bachelor Of Social Services.

Now, here’s for my verdict.
Shreya is Nice to Look (yeah Babe! sweeeeeeeeeettt).
The movie, with much trepidation on my part, is wait for it, is in my humble opinion, not one of Rajnikanth’s best movies. It has it’s funny moments, a typical ingredient for his movies. That made me laugh. His movies always deliver a social message. Which is good, as he is trying to show people that if you want change, YOU have to personally make it happen. As for his comedy in this movie, I really liked the part where he was trying to get Shreya. It was hilarious!
I also liked the part towards the end where he appears ‘botak!’ yeah man. He looks pretty good being a ‘Mottai’ BOSS (pardon the spelling).
The songs are not bad. I really like the ‘Baillelaka’ song. The next song I liked best was the one that had the following phrase ‘Oru Kudai Sun Light’. That entire song and the first few minutes before and after, parodied the so called predilection of SOME Indians who want to marry a FAIR Indian. Hey, nothing wrong with being a dark person and certainly nothing wrong being a fair person. But hey, being dark is better
So despite saying all of that. Why I don’t like it? It just doesn’t have the ‘OOMPH’. I prefer Padaiyappa and Arunachalam more than his later movies. His later movies were good, but not as good as the previous ones. But that is my humble opinion.
And heard from the Grapevine that this movies is being shown without subtitles(though this may be subject to change) in Northen India. Wow!!! Way to go Rajni!
So, Go and see it. Make your own judgement. You may or may not share the same sentiments as me.Enjoy the movie and I hope you enjoy some of the moments I highlighted above. And do remember to come back to this blog and share your view about the movie.

Hey Jun. Yup, I ‘rented’ it for free if you get what I mean
. get it from a Tamil Torrent Site. But just make sure their copy is a good quality. The movie I watched was reasonabl (quality wise). Wished better quality versions would come out like dvd rip, then it would be even better to watch. Enjoy the movie!!!
