Superstar Rajnikanth is undoubtedly is the boss of box-office in South India. His charisma and popularity cuts across the languages and regions. He proved his star power constantly with many hits including Narasimha, Basha, Muthu and Chandramukhi. The reigning star of South India is now coming up with Shivaji – The Boss. He joins hands with Shankar, one of the high-profile directors of South India. The prestigious production house AVM made this humongous film shot at Rs 60 Crores and did business around Rs 80 Crores.

Bellamkonda Suresh is acting as producer for Telugu version although all rights are with AVM.

What is it to offer?

Shivaji is Rajnikanth's film all the way. Yet it is shot in Shankar's style – gigantic on screen with a message. Great locales, stunning visuals, mind-boggling action episodes, entertainment, social message, beautiful heroine, rocking music – what not it offers everything one goes to see for a commercial movie.

Plot

Rajinikanth (Shiivaji) plays the role of a NRI software analyst. He returns from USA to India to set up colleges and hospitals. Suman plays a business tycoon who feels threatened by Shivaji's charity plans. So he conspires against Shivaji, ruins his plans and ensures Sivaji is jailed.

Once out of jail Sivaji seeks revenge on Suman who is responsible for his plight. He also unearths crores of black money from various businessmen and makes it white and does it for good cause. He also loves a traditional Telugu girl (Shriya) and marries her. But she initially refuses to marry him fearing he'd die if she marries him, as one astrologer told her.
