kitschking

standard kolliwood scene has a bunch of sweaty thugs, all rushing at the heavily powdered, respected and adored rajnikanth. before they have a go at him with choppers, cycle chains, medieval clubs, swords and the odd country made pistol, THE BOSS waves them to a stunned halt and declares -"pigs always come in groups. but the lion roams alone."

predictably he proceeds to decimate the pigs, swallowing bullets and dodging sword swooshes all the while finding the time to mouth more cult classic dialogues.from bus conductor to record breaking marquee fame - basha, the boss, padiyappa, the names are many, but the truth is one. as 'lavanya auto stand friends' will swear, there is no other like rajni."sollitte!"
