Episode 33: Enthiran
BOOM BOOM ROBO DA ROBO DA.
In this episode, probably our last of the summer, we look at the 2010 Kollywood film Enthiran starring the Tamilnator himself, Superstar Rajini. Enthiran is one of the highest budget/highest grossing Indian films of all time, so we see if it’s worthy of your three hours or whether it should be left on the scrap heap. Also in this episode, we talk about buffed superheroes, and even more buffed super heroines, a low budget filmmaking legend, and more!
