Endhiran
Shankar gets it right all the time, stills of his movies grab eyeballs, just like in Sivaji. But, this time the magic doesn’t seem to have worked. The opening still of Endhiran has gone almost unnoticed. Some said that they couldn’t recognize that it was the Superstar, others said it looked more like an English movie. The calculations on the new look seems to have gone a bit off track. The Kuselan debacle and the Hogenakkal bitterness seem to have played a part in the dull response. However, the leaked stills from the shooting spot were able to generate vibes.

Jaggubhai
For a movie that was never made, the stills of Jaggubhai received great response. It came at a time when the announcement for a Superstar movie was being long awaited. The hooded Superstar with a visible stubble, and a machine gun by his side had raised curiosity levels. The KSR factor too was a big plus.

Sivaji
One of the best Rajini stills to have ever come out. The white shirt, blue jean and swank coolers sat perfect on Superstar. The bottom angle cut was just the foil that Rajinikanth’s larger than life image needed, it was an instant hit with everyone. ‘The Boss’ tagline too was one of the catchiest ever and the Superstar-Shankar combo was one of the biggest ever.

Baba
3 years after Padaiyappa, nothing was heard of a Superstar movie. Then Baba was announced. The nonchalant stance, looking back at one’s raised foot, in a way only Rajini can pass off as style or the unforgettable ‘Baba’ mudra, the Baba posters were a rage the moment they were pasted on city walls.

Muthu
After the political excitement at the Baasha victory celebration, a lot was expected in terms of political overtones in Rajinikanth’s next movie and when the announcement and stills of Muthu came along, a wave of euphoria took over all Superstar fans.

A Superstar movie is always a celebration for his fans. The excitement and euphoria starts as soon as the movie is launched. We take a look back at the Superstar films of the last two decades and see which are the ones that triggered huge reactions right from the word go- the first stills and posters that were special.
Thalapathi
The first time that the poster of a Rajini film looked different, in terms of an experiment with the style and font. Mani Ratnam was always known for his unique ways and his combination with the Superstar was the biggest thing in the industry at that time.
