Tollywood films!

Tollywood films - in India can mean "Telegu" films or "Tamil" films - in OUR house it only means TAMIL films!!!  And there is a number one Superstar in "Tollywood" named Rajnikanth.  We like his humble start - he was a bus conductor who was very animated....made people smile and laugh and soon a Tamil (Nadu) director "discovered" him. 

Although Tamil isn't his native tongue - he learned it fluently and became Tamil Nadu's SUPERSTAR!!!  As for his private life - he is married with daughters - he is religious.  His wife is extremely active in charities as is he.  He's a GOOD GUY.

It would be hard to find a "best" film for Rajnikanth.  His most recent is "Endhiran" (Robot) and I have to tell you that the technical aspects of that film are outstanding!!!  Two other great films he's starred in (he's starred in over 100 films) are "Sivaji" and "Padiyappa".

Another great Tollywood (Tamil) actor is R. Madhavan and you can really catch his skills in a film called "Ramji Londonwaley".

A truly inspiring Tamil film is "Aaya", and another called "Anjali" (which approaches the subject of a "special needs" child....believe it or not, this is new territory in Indian cinematography).

Please enjoy!!
