Baasha

I am amazed that not one of Superstar Rajinikanth's millions of fans in the whole wide world has bothered to write a review of what is arguably his greatest hit and possibly his best entertainer. Like legions of his fans, I cannot find a single flaw in this superb flick. It's like a Bond movie; everything's possible because 007 is in charge. Rajini as Manickam and Badsha is simply scintillating; he gives his most impressive Bond-like performance to date. Actually I think Superstar should have quit films and entered politics after Badsha - he would have left in a blaze of glory and cemented his place in film and political history. There are many unforgettable scenes - when he speaks to the college principal for his sister's admission, the fight with Anandaraj ("ULLE PO"), all his scenes with Raghuvaran. I can go on and on. Instead I'll go and watch Badsha again. Maybe you should, if you haven't already.

A movie that gave a new definition for Character Underplay and subsequent Stylish (violent) transformation for the tamil movie goers. Tops the must watch list of all thalaivar fans and more than a decent entertainer for anyone who prefer an intense story said with a commercial sugar coating. This is the movie that exploited the brand RAJINI to the maximum and expanded his reach among maases to unimaginable proportions thus making RAJINI the undisputed MASS HERO! The movie is not only stylish but has substance too and a trend-setter for future gangster flicks! But unfortunately none could match the magic of the one and only BASHA, nehi nehi maanik BASHA!!!! A complete RAJINI entertainer all the way!

First of all i would like to say this is the best film of Rajinikanth as it turns out to be the perfect plot,stylish acting etc. The film gives you glimpses how stylish was rajini back then. The film is still regarded as one of the best films ever made in tamil cinema. you should have been there in the theaters in jan 1995 then you would have known the response of the film. The style icon rajini followed up with serious block busters which made him an iconic person as he is now.The film had everything love,action,comedy and above all true friendship. The films best part is those conversations between the protagonist and the antagonist played by raguvaran who has done exceptionally well. You wouldn't want to miss this classic do watch this to know about it.This is one of the best made don films in the history.

The movie was excellent with many mass scenes and punch dialogues. The movie was interesting. But some scenes were not logic in the movie. Rajinikanth acted good in the movie and also Raghuvaran is the main highlight in the movie.

This movie was one of the best movie of my life as I have seen it many times and I never got bored. The people who are expecting MASS and COMMERCIAL movies then please don't waste time reading these reviews just go and watch it. The people who are expecting a typical gangster movie like THALAPATHI and NAYAKAN, I would not recommend this film. But for sure you will not get bored watching this film. This film is a gem of TAMIL cinema and a proper COMMERCIAL entertainer.
