crab, nickraman and vasanth_luv, this is the first time i'm talking to you and i hate myself for that. but please, you guys have had varying degrees of success in tanking the other discussion. i request you to please stay off this one at least, if your sole agenda in life is to get frustrated at rajnikant's continuing success and cutting sorry figures in front of others. you can carry your good work in other threads, please.

"but the problem is that present-day rajnikant is a much bigger star than what bachchan was during the end of his hero days//

1)proof? for bachan's image smaller in his end-hero days??

1a)if so why wasnt CM released all over india?

2)is he being bigger a PROBLEM? i thought u will think the otherway. he he"

proof - bachchan's flops after his comeback as hero:
mrityudaata, kohraam, suryavamsham, laal badshah, major saab, aks, boom and more. the only hit as hero has been bade miyan chote miyan, that too largely for the david dhawan - govinda draw. i'm talking about the movies where he played hero, before he moved to character roles.

CM was not released all over india because there is no solid audience for south indian movies in the north. because it was not dubed, because it wasn't made as a bilingual, because the producers didn't want it to probably... what's the point? when i say rajni is a bigger star than bachchan after his comeback, i mean to say amitabh CANNOT ensure an initial pull for his solo starrers in any part of india similar to the one which is guaranteed for a rajni movie in the south. this is in no ways to discredit bachchan, who acording to me is the greatest star-actor this country has ever seen.

he being a bigger star is INDEED a problem for him as an actor. unlike kerala, where mohanlal and mammootty can experiment with their roles and still rake in the money, rajnikant is at a disadvantage being in tamil nadu where he's expected to tread a particular route time and again. bachchan could move to better, performance-oriented roles 'coz he was smart enough to realise that his days as angry young man were over and he made a quite shift. and it paid off. rajnikant's days as the formulaic hero are far from over, as the mega success of CM proves. you get the drift?
