Rajinikanth’s Badsha
was a watershed film as
far as the Tamil industry
is concerned. It reinvented
the MGR image of the do-gooder
from a humble background
thrashing seemingly impenetrable
barriers. Suresh Krishna
was the director of this
film. The film was dubbed
in Telugu where it did well.
The Kannada version had
Vishnuvardhan in the lead
and grossed good revenue.
Now, the film will be remade
in Bangla with Mithun Chakraborthy
as the Badsha. Hope the
has-been poor man’s
Amitabh brings some magic
to the role.
