Shivaji - The 'Thalaivar' is all set to rock you!!

This is the ‘Hottest’ News in the Tamil film industry, probably the whole of India too and parts of Japan mebbe!! Rajnikanth, the superstar of Tamil cinema has teamed up with Shankar for his next movie ‘Shivaji’ to be produced by AVM. This is supposedly the biggest ever film made in South India. Shankar has started work on the script of the film, which will be released next year.

Check this out…
"Shivaji" will be the AVM's ninth film in which Rajnikanth will be acting. Incidentally it will also be Shankar's ninth directorial venture - a fact Rajni considers as significant as the superstar's lucky number is also said to be 'nine'. Rajini is reported to have told Shankar that 'Nine" would prove lucky for both of them.

Why was the film titled "Shivaji"? Thespian Sivaji Ganesan made his debut in ‘‘Parasakthi’’, which was produced by AVM. So, AVM's 68th film has been named as "Shivaji" in honor of his memory.

Interestingly, the real name of Rajni is Shivaji Rao. Also, it is rumored that Rajini is being paid around 25crores for this movie!! My god, is that money or what?? The screenplay, storyline, lead actress has not been finalized yet. Another ‘news’ states that this film will be released by Nov 2006. So wait and watch people!!

P.s : Thalaivar means Leader
