The
grandeur
of
Kochadaiiyaan
was
disclosed
to
the
world
with
the
movie
bosses
releasing
a
trailer
of
the
Tamil
film
on
Sunday
(March
9).
The
short-video
clipping
clearly
indicates
that
the
Tamil
flick
is
rich,
colourful
and
technically
good
film.
The
trailer
of
Kochadaiiyaan
leaves
you
amazed
and
raises
high
expectations
on
the
film.
The
CGI
works,
dialogues,
characterizations
and
every
other
single
elements
have
been
perfectly
blended
in
the
video
clip.
Inspiring
Story
Rajinikanth
as
the
King
inspires
audience,
who
gives
a
hint
of
his
character's
bravery,
his
swords
and
archery
skills
in
the
Kochadaiiyaan
trailer.
The
highlight
of
the
video-clipping
is
that
the
superstar
has
injected
his
own
style
into
his
role
with
his
mannerisms
and
punch
dialogues.
Industry
Talk
Industry
insiders
are
stunned
by
what
they
have
seen
in
the
Kochadaiiyaan
trailer.
Many
believe
that
a
moment
seems
to
have
arrived
that
will
make
all
Indians
proud.
Especially,
the
Tamil
audience
will
feel
pride
this
development,
as
it
is
a
good
step
in
the
right
direction
to
take
Kollywood
films
to
international
standards.
Worrying
Factor
While
the
fans
of
Rajinikanth
are
celebrating
the
trailer
and
audio
release
and
praising
it
to
heavens,
many
have
expressed
their
doubts
over
the
commercial
prospects
of
the
film.
Question
that
they
are
asking
-
is
our
Tamil
audience
ready
for
such
films?
An
easily
believed
answer
is
that
a
typical
Rajinikanth
fan
will
love
to
see
an
action-packed
film
with
all
the
necessary
commercial
elements.
Endhiran
struck
the
gold
because
audience
could
feel
Rajini
in
the
film.
But
Kochadaiiyaan
is
an
animated
film
and
it
is
not
sure
how
mass
will
embrace
this
superstar.
Let
us
wait
and
see
what
people
will
say
about
it
whe
the
film
hits
the
screens
on
April
11.
Well,
on
the
other
end,
people
have
started
debating
over
the
quality
of
the
film.
There
is
a
mixed
response
over
the
same.
Here,
we
are
bringing
you
some
of
those
comments.

Look
like
cutscenes
from
a
PS1
game.
Japanese
home
videos
have
better
animation
and
they
cost
barely
anything.
Put
more
emphasis
on
the
tech
and
less
on
the
'star
power'.

Ashokan
1/6th
of
an
avg
hollywood
nimation
movie's
budget.
This
is
all
could
be
expected.
And
yes
it
does
look
like
video
game
cinematics
and
not
of
a
movie
quality.
It
is
however
the
step
in
the
right
direction
to
inspire
more
people
to
take
up
the
art
in
India.

The
CGI
looks
like
some
5
year
old
video
game.
Couldn't
they
get
Disney
or
Pixar
to
help?
Nihal

Why
it
has
to
be
deepika
padukone
?
It
can
be
any
normal
girl
for
this
kind
of
animation
..Huge
money
waste
on
the
heroin
character
:(

Love
the
trailer....
To
me,
the
graphiics
look
great.
To
make
a
full
length
movie
like
this
with
complete
motion
capture/animation
is
no
easy
task
for
Indian
film
makers,
who
are
not
as
experienced.
This
is
a
stepping
stone,
like
how
Endhiran
was
a
stepping
stone
in
sci-fi.
I
will
watch
this
for
the
man,
Rajnikanth,
and
ARR's
music.
But
I
will
also
watch
this
for
the
vision
of
Soundarya
and
her
sincere
attempt
to
make
a
film
of
this
scale
and
grandeur.
I
would
give
her
some
pat
on
the
back.

This
is
an
attempt
to
bring
those
wonderful
movies
to
india.
It's
a
indian
movie.
This
is
not
plain
animation
as
you
think
and
the
same
applies
to
the
so
called
movies
around
the
world.
There
is
a
lot
of
work
done
behind
the
scenes.

I'm
not
going
to
compare
with
Avatar
or
Life
of
Pie.
But
compared
to
3D
animated
films
made
in
India
this
is
very
low
in
output
quality.
Even
Media
Dreams
in
90s
gave
better
output.
In
live
action
films
when
we
have
pleasing
CG
in
Endhiran,
Eega
among
others
this
work
is
very
poor.
So
whoever
is
using
words
like
India,
woman,
pride,
effort
think
deeply.
Kewin

Not
satisfied
with
the
graphics
though.
But
it's
ok,
since
it's
the
first
of
its
kind...
Go
Indian
film
industry,
you've
got
a
long
way
to
reach
the
top.
Varun
Techie
Good
effort.
and
don't
compare
with
avatar
or
tintin
avatar
budget
is
mere
1500crores
and
this
movie
is
125
crores
how
can
you
compare
to
them
compare
with
same
budget
movies.
yup
motion
is
bit
jittery
and
facial
expressions
are
not
unto
the
mark
but
this
is
first
Indian
movie
to
use
motion
capture
so
we
have
to
appreciate
for
that.
Naan

I
think
we
can
not
make
our
judgments
simply
based
on
the
trailer
alone.
For
me
it
appears
to
be
a
good
effort
to
make
an
animation
movie.
Hope
you
all
admit
that
even
if
this
an
experimental
attempt,
super
star
Rajini
is
capable
of
shouldering
such
a
massive
project
offering
the
guarantee
that
the
producer
will
at
least
get
back
his
money,
in
case
if
it
does
not
become
a
hit.
No
producer
will
take
the
risk
of
putting
crores
of
rupees
on
an
experimental
project
like
this
on
any
other
actor
other
than
Rajini.
