Darbar is a complete action thriller: Rajinikanth

Superstar Rajinikanth is confident that his upcoming release ‘Darbar’ will be liked by all sections of audiences. This is not a serious movie, it is a paisa vasool entertainer, he said. He graced the film’s pre-release event that was held at Shilpakala Vedika in Hyderabad on Friday evening.

As he took the mike to speak, Superstar Rajinikanth was greeted with loud cheers from fans.

Rajini said, “It was in 1976 that ‘Anthuleni Katha’ released in Telugu. 99 percent of those who are here today were not even born then. The Telugus love me as much as the Tamil people. My movies have done very well in Telugu not just because of me. During the making of a film, some magic has to happen. But that’s not in our hands. ‘Darbar’ felt like magic during the making stage. I had been wanting to work with Murugadoss for years. It finally happened with this film.”

Rajinikanth also praised the producer Subaskaran saying he is a very good friend. 

He further continued, “a subject like ‘Darbar’ is not easy to make. The story treatment, the technical elements have given life. The Ram-Lakshman duo is like Yogis. They are not ordinary. I have done 160 movies. ‘Darbar’ will be special. Suneil Shetty and others have done a very good job.”

‘Darbar’ is directed by Murugadoss. Presented by Subaskaran of Lyca Productions, the film will be released by NV Prasad in the Telugu States. The film will hit the screens on January 9.
