I am a die hard fan of the Super Star Rajnikanth and an equally ardent fan of the real Rajnikanth too .
Though My heart is not coming to terms to write anything negative about this film "Lingaa" , it took me almost 24 hours to vehemently write this .
"Lingaa" is a big let down for his fans but if you can soothe yourself for being able to see his charishma on screen after 3 long years because that part of you is not willing to see your superstar fail you .
The movie starts with an engineer inspecting the dam (which you saw in the trailers) and the next scene you see him get killed by Jagapathi Babu . The engineer while on the run from the rowdies , throws a Rudraksh into the temple near the dam and the rudraksh falls right in the Trishul . Well , Rudraksh is regular in Rajnikanth's movies and this rudraksh plays an important role in all the movies where this rudraksh appears . Arunachalam being one good example . Now the engineer tells K. Vishwanath (The same director of erstwhile good films of telugu) that if he wants to save the village then he should open the temple . I forgot to tell you that the temple had been remained closed for the past 70 years . K. Vishwanath sir wants someone of the King Lingaa's lineage to open the temple and he reveals that there is one grandson of King Lingaa and sends everyone in search for the same .
Enters Lingaa and Anushka and his gang of thieves . Now the rest of the story is whether this grandson Lingaa comes to the village and finds the mystery of the temple and if he does then how he does it .
There is evidently a long flashback by K. Vishwanath to the entire village about King Lingaa and how he sacrificed his entire wealth to build the dam . The entire film is about how the dam is built amidst lots of problems and how both the rajnikanth's save it .
The saving factors of the film are Rajnikanth , the dialogues , the two action sequences specially the train fight . That's it and nothing else will impress you . Not the songs , not Sonakshi nor the supporting cast and neither the villain . The chemistry between Anushka and Rajni is good but the same cannot be said about Sonakshi with Rajni . The fights are very well choreographed but its very visble that a dupe has been used in lot of the shots . cannot complain though considering that Rajnikanth's age is 64 by now . The songs are also a big let down but Rajni's presence make them watchable a little . Indiane song is good among the lot .
The climax is very funny . It seems as if the producer and the director along with Rajnikanth have taken Rajnikanth jokes on the internet very seriously and choreographed the climax in the same lines . It is very very funny and trust me you will crackle up watching just the climax .
Watch it with your family once to relish the onscreen charishma of The living phenomenon and the Superstar of the Millennium .. our own Thalaivar .. The one and only .. Rajnikanth :)
