SIVAJI: The BOSS(Review 2)

India’s much awaited and most expensive movie “Sivaji” hit the screens on June 15th.
It’s a typical Shanker brand movie which talks mostly about corruption.
This time he chose ‘black money’ as his plot.
The movie is quite boring in the first half and second half was fine. The director replaced the signature cigar style of Rajni with chewing gum and tossing a rupee coin!

The story is about a NRI, “Sivaji” who returns to India after earning Rs.200 crores.
He reveals his vision of constructing educational institutions for the benefit of the poor students. When he approaches the officials for clearance certificates for his constructions he faces the corrupted Indian administrators. He passes through all these difficulties by bribing all the officials, but finds an obstacle in the form of Suman, (who plays a negative role) who is a highly influential person, forces the government to stop Sivaji’s work.
The plot unfolds in the second half but the basic theme of the movie got diluted. The ‘office’ treatment in the movie was good.
How does Rajni take revenge on the people who have unaccounted money? Will he succeed in his mission? Watch the movie to find out the answers to these questions!!

Rajni was superb. Shreya has done her part really well.
Suman has got the look of a villain but fails to deliver the fundamental characteristics of a villain. The combination of the Super star and Vivek in the comedy scenes did work well!
The music and background score of Rahman stands out! The photography is good. Credit goes to the make-up artists who made Rajni to look so young in the film. He has got 15 different hairstyles in the movie!! Costumes of the heroine were awesome!

If you were to take my suggestion, watch the movie without any huge expectations, else,
You would be highly disappointed!!

Rating : 2.5/5
