Sivaji Meets Guru By Behindwoods News Bureau.
August 27, 2007 Kollywood is alight with rumors about the
latest meeting of Superstar with Mani Ratnam, the ace director of Indian
cinema. The meeting is said to have lasted for more than two hours. Rumor
mongers have sprung upon this news and have started building up their own
version of the meeting.
However, according to Kollywood sources, the visit was purely a
courtesy call where Superstar met Mani Ratnam to offer his condolences on his
brother's untimely demise. Besides this, Rajnikanth has also reportedly
discussed about Sivaji being dubbed in Hindi and had sought the director's
suggestion on this as he had recently given a blockbuster hit in Hindi in Guru.
The duo was reported to have discussed the upcoming animation film "Sultan the
Warrior" which was followed by Mani Ratnam narrating a couple of stories to the
Superstar.
It is known that Rajini and Mani came together 16 years ago for the super hit
"Thalapathy" which is still considered the best movie of Rajinikanth as an
actor and the bond between them had grown ever since. Even though they have not
worked together from then on, Rajinikanth has always kept him in high regards
as he was the first one to appreciate Mani Ratnam when Roja and Bombay were
released.
Although the reasons attributed for their meeting could only be an extension of
imagination of the media, still the very thought of the Super Director and
Superstar coming together, is certainly the biggest news of the year. If the
two team up again it is bound to be a Diwali time for Kollywood. Let's wait for
official statements.
