Relying Too Much on Rajinikanth ?
Despite the star power and Rajinikanth's prolonged appearance, the film has not received much attention, owing to its odd genre—a sports drama addressing religious concerns rather than a typical commercial picture. The trailer, while competent, lacks broad appeal and resembles sanctimonious flicks from the 1990s. Concerns are raised regarding Rajinikanth's role being featured yet having limited screen time or effect, thus disappointing the audience.
"Lal Salaam" movie marks Aishwarya's comeback to feature film director after an eight-year absence. Historically, her films have resonated with a specialized audience rather than the general public, which explains her first two films' dismal box office performances. Lal Salaam, backed by Lyca Productions, is set to be released this week on february 9.
