Padayappa Re-Release: Fans Celebrate FDFS on Rajinikanth’s 75th Birthday
1 week ago
The re-release of Padayappa on the occasion of Rajinikanth's 75th birthday, offers a fascinating lens into how much has changed – and how much hasn't – in Tamil cinema over the past 25 years. Director KS Ravikumar's 1999 blockbuster was a cultural phenomenon, minting money and still lives on in everyone's collective memory through memes.
This year is also special for another reason. Padayappa, a film Rajinikanth has written, acted and produced, has completed 25 years. The iconic film is an elusive one since it is not on any OTT platform or YouTube. In a promotional interview, Rajinikanth revealed why he did not sell the digital rights.
