Thalaivar punch-ey punch...

Singathe konja mudiyathu...
Sivajiya minja mudiyathu..

Kanna....
Aalu rounda iruntha podhathu..
Aatathula all roundera irukkanum...

Amaidhikku Babaji..
Adidhadikku Sivaji!!

Thanneerai Killa Mudiyuma ?
Sivajiya vella mudiyuma?

Paambey patha padaye nadungum....
Indha Sivajiya paathu... pambe nadungum!

Phone adicha ringu...
Indha Sivaji adicha sangu.

==================================

Don't know if this is the real thing, but thalaivar punch-ey punch!

Amit, you understood just one word, since the rest were all in Tamil! Hmmm...

Since this post seems to have mysteriously cropped up on this week's blog mela (I wonder who nominated it, so will just thank Amit), I have to add, for the benefit of all you non Tam readers, that the above is a set of lines, supposedly from Thalaivar's forthcoming movie, Sivaji.

Again FYI, Rajinikanth (or Thalaivar, as he is fondly called) usually has a number of such punch-lines in his movies. Usually one of them gets repeated throughout the movie like this one from Baasha - Indha Baasha oru dharava sonna, nooru dharava sonna maadhiri (A single word from Baasha is as powerful as a hundred words). Or this one from Padaiyappa - En vazhi thani vazhi (My way is unique). Simple and yet, powerful. And their hundred different hidden meanings are totally lost in translation from Tamil to English.

The Superstar (who gives this blog part of it's URL), along with Mithun da in Hindi and Megastar Chiranjeevi in Telugu, forms the Holy Trinity of Indian cinema. Watch their movies, even if you cannot understand a word of that particular language. I guarantee that you will come out feeling contented that it was money well spent on entertainment.

where did u get this?

i still think baba's quotes were better than this.

Hawkeye: Got it as a forward...

Balaji said...

the list is from 'kungumam'.

multiple lines may be good. but i feel boss should still pick 1 line and repeat it for better effect like in 'baasha', 'padaiyappa', etc.

"phone adicha ring-u, sivaji adicha sangu"

Err.. sounds like T. Rajender's dialogue more than thalai's punch line :D. why you ask? look at this.

"Adei Das-u, ini un kadhai close-u"

Padaiyyapa
Muthu
Chandramukhi
Baaba

Thought of writing a blog on Thalaivar's punch dialogues and I find your blog talking about his next movie punch dialogues. I dont know where U find it but true so much meaning, so much power.

His dialogue's are hard to be translated word-to-word in english or for the matter his japanese fans.
