My Days with Baasha: The Rajnikanth Phenomenon

The magnetic appeal of Rajnikanth, the Superstar, needs no elaboration. But how many of his admirers know Rajnikanth, the thorough professional, the unassuming actor, the committed human being or the diehard humorist in real life? As one who has directed three of Rajnikanth’s megahits, Annamalai, Veera and Baasha, Suresh Krissna throws light on these and other engaging facets of the Superstar, whom he had observed at close quarters. He takes readers on a journey through the making of these films, right from the conception to the shooting of those ingenious scenes and dialogue that have become part of cinematic history.
