of
that.

(1991)

time
in
the
film

audiences
grabbed
the
chance
to
watch
two
big
superstars
together
on
the
screen.
The
film
was
a
big
hit
at
the
Kerala
box
office.
Baasha
(1995)
Baasha
was
and
still
is
a
sensation.
The
trademark
dialogue
of
the
film

Thadave
Sonna
Maathiri'
caught
the
attention
of
Malayali
filmgoers
and

film
did
set
a
trend
back
then.
Arunachalam
(1997)
Arunachalam,
which
released
in
the
year
1997
had
a
dream
run
in
certain
centres
in
Kerala.
The
film
did
go
on
to
complete
100
days
of
run
in
selected
centres.
Films
like
Aniyathipravu
were
released
at
the
same
time,
still
the
movie
had
a
fascinating
run.
Padayappa
(1999)
Padayappa
had
the
style
and
substance
required
for
a
Rajinikanth
movie.
This
factor
particularly
attracted
the
audiences
of
Kerala
and
the
film
had
set
the
cash
registers
ringing
at
the
Kerala
box
office.
Sivaji
(2007)

to
be
the

release
of
Rajinikanth
in
Kerala.
The
film
is
all
set
to
be
released
in
306
theatres
across
Kerala.
Mohanlal
and
Antony
Perumbavoor
have
grabbed
the
Kerala
distribution
rights
for
the
film.
According
to
the
experts,
the
movie
is
all
set
to
rewrite
many
box-office
collection
records
in
Kerala.
Going
by
the
huge
hype
and
the
excellent
advance
booking
status,
Kabali
has
all
chances
to
break
the
existing
Day

collection
records
at
