Shankar & Rajini – missing in action



Director Shankar is always known to be highly optimistic about his movies, and Sivaji is no exception. In fact the director was bold enough to admit that he is extremely satisfied with the outcome. But then, Sivaji is no ordinary movie. It is a movie where the most powerful name in Kollywood – the Badshah of Style - superstar Rajini is involved. Obviously it qualifies as a must see film even before its release.

Theatre owners are having a tough time, as the pressure mounts with the release date nearing, as people from all walks of life are expected to take time off from their hectic schedules to watch The Boss in action. Generally Shankar goes on a vacation with his family only after his movie hits the screens. But this time, the director, to cool is heels off has advanced his vacation two weeks earlier. Even Rajini, who has flown down to the Himalayas, will return only two weeks after the movie is screened in theatres.

With their conspicuous absence, both the director and the superstar will miss out the real life action. Looks like Sivaji's mammoth success will welcome them both on their return to Kollywood.
