Rajini the marketing wizard | Babaのサントラの売り方 |
The multinational marketing managers can take a lesson or two from the Superstar. The Baba audio cassette launch is on July 15. But one can’t walk into the neighbourhood music shop and pick up a cassette. The fans have to go designated 110 cinema halls in Tamilnadu, pay the money in advance, collect a reservation coupon and exchange it for a cassette. Even the audio dealers have to approach the theatres to get the cassettes. |
ラジニの新作のサウンドトラックのカセットテープは、7/15発売だが、町のミュージックショップでの販売ではなく、なんとタミルナドゥ州の110の映画館で、前払いの予約により販売することに。(こういう販売方法は初めてらしく、注目されている)
とはいえ、この文を書いている7/20現在、まだ発売されていない模様。(Rajnidotcomより) |

Gossips! | 映画内の印象的な台詞 |
Rajinikanth was very careful in not allowing others to smell anything about his ‘punch’ dialogues in “Baba”. To realize this design, as and when the camera started shooting, he simply made lip moements silently, without vocally delivering his dialogue! So, the film unit people themselves were kept in the dark as to what transpired from Rajini’s mouth. Yet, what we have gathered, through our sources, as to what could be his punching dialogues, let us present the following list of samples:

ラジニは、人々に彼の『Baba』における「パンチ」 のある台詞に関して事前に情報が漏れないように非常に注意を払い、撮影が始まると、メディアの前で沈黙を守っていた。 しかし、私たちの情報源を通じて私たちが集めた、彼のパンチのある台詞について、サンプルのリストを紹介しましょう: (以下タミル語なので、分かったときに訳は載せます) |

Rajnikanth film fetches 8 crore in Japan | ムンバイでも何か、勘違い… |
With the rights of the Tamil film Baba starring Rajnikanth-Manisha Koirala reportedly being sold for a record Rs 8 crore in Japan, the overseas market seems to be picking up after a fall a while ago.
Rajnikanths previous films Muthu and Baasha were big hits in Japan with Muthu making around Rs 24 crore. This has resulted in the southern starbecoming very popular in that country. So much so, that one of Rajnikanths duplicates has even shifted base to Japan to rake in the moolah. Vinod Mirani, editor and trade analyst of Box Office, says that Devdas is expected to make around Rs 30-40 crore in the international market. The film is big and hence there are many expectations. K3G was also very big abroad, but the makers preferred to distribute the films themselves. Today Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are big draws in the overseas market. The overseas rights of K3G were distributed by the producer Yash Johar himself. Ditto for Asoka, The Legend of Bhagat Singh, and all Yashraj films among others. Many producers prefer to distribute the overseas rights oftheir films themselves. In Japan, Rajnikanth seems to have outdone his Hindi counterparts despite In the past, Rishi Kapoor was probably the first whose films Bobby, Laila Majnu and Hum Kisise Kum Nahin earned a crore each. Amitabh Bachchan was next and others followed soon after as the markets expanded. Talking of overseas popularity, Raj Kapoor became an icon in Russia. Mithun Chakraborthy, too, had a portion of Kapoors luck in the country. By the way, if you go to Japan today and are introduced as an Indian, people ask, Do you know Rajnikanth? But, to date when one visits Egypt, the first question asked to an Indian is How is Amitabh Bachchan? |
ラジニとマニーシャーが主演するタミル映画『Baba』の権利が、日本においてなんと8000万ルピーで売られていると伝えられている。
ラジニの以前の出演作『Muthu』および『Baasha』は日本で大ヒットし、『ムトゥ』においては2億4,000万ルピーもの興行収入を稼ぎ出しました。南インドのスターは日本で有名になりました。 Vinod Mirani(売上げのエディターおよび貿易アナリスト)は、大作『Devdas』(シャー・ルク・カーン、アイシュワリヤー・ラーイ出演。7月現在大ヒット公開中。)は国際市場で3~4億ルピーぐらいで売れるのでは?と言います。 さらに、『K3G(Kabhi Kushi Kabhie Gham…)』は外国でビッグヒットでしたが、制作者たちは、映画を自身で配給することを好みました。今日、アーミル・カーン、サルマン・カーンやシャー・ルク・カーンは、海外市場でも大ヒットをもたらします。 所変わって、エジプトを訪れたならまず、「アミターブ・バッチャンはどうですか?」と質問されるのです。 |

Shanthi-Madhan! | Babaの次の作品は… |
Madan, looks like the heat around ‘Baba’ is increasing as days go by. What do you think? Now that the shooting has ended, people are curious to find out if Rajini will continue acting. Friends from the industry tell us that he will be back after a holiday break. There is also news that Simran is going about telling everybody that she’s going to be the heroine of Rajini’s next film. What an imagination! Simran with Rajini? Quit that.You would have seen ‘Panchatantram’ by now. ~ |
モーハン、『Baba』をめぐる話が日に日にヒートアップしてるね。
何?撮影はもう終わったんだよ。 業界の友人から聞いたんだけど、休暇を取ったらラジニは戻ってくるだろうって。 止めてくれよ。『Panchathanthiram』(カマル+シムラン)を観たかい? |

Hot News! | Babaのメイキングビデオ |
‘Nakkeeran’ Gopal had hinted during an interview that the ruling party is targeting Rajini. A 30 minute long phone call from Rajini followed. After the conversation, Rajini had said that it wouldn’t be a smart move to antagonize the ruling party just when his ‘Baba’ is about to get released. ‘Baba’s shooting has ended. On one hand, Rajini and Suresh Krishna are busily involved with the editing works of the film. On the other hand, ‘baba’s baby, Aishwarya is busily involved on her part with ‘The Making of ‘Baba’. Most probably, this would be telecasted on Sun TV. |
『Baba』の撮影は終了した。ラジニと監督のスレーシュ・クリシュナーは、映画の音入れ等で現在忙しい。 一方で、ラジニの娘のアイシュワリヤーは、【メイキング・オブ・Baba】を制作中で忙しい。 恐らくは、これはサンTVで放送されるだろう。 |

Gossips! | ラジニの冷戦 |
The cold war between the captain and superstar had reached the peak when the latter had called for a Press meet on the same day that captain did. The captain had been cribbing to his friends, ‘why does he want to compete with me in this too?’ Since his new film has turned out very well, he wants to now risk another head on clash with the super by releasing his film on the same day. Bravo! Excellent competition. |
【キャプテン】ヴィジャイヤカーントと【スーパースター】ラジニカーントの冷戦がピークに達している。 ラジニがヴィジャイヤカーントの記者会見と同じ日に記者会見を要求したのだ。 キャプテンは友人に「なぜ彼は、私とまたこんなふうに張り合いたがるんだ。」とこぼしている。 いいぞ!この競争は見物だ。 |

Baba ready for battle | Babaの戦闘態勢は準備万端 |
Trust Rajnikanth to get his timing right.
The man, who is an ardent Raghavendra and Thiruvannamalai Arunachaleshwar devotee, “It was planned that way,” he says with his usual economy of words. The film is slated to hit the screens on Independence Day and the cassettes on July 15. But the question uppermost in most people’s mind in Tamil Nadu is what is the film all about. Does it contain politics? Is it a comedy? Adds the film’s director Suresh Krissna: Suresh Krissna should know. He has given three mega hits with Rajnikanth before. Baba has been shot in Chennai, Mysore and Switzerland. There is a galaxy of artistes in the film. Starting with Manisha Koirala, The last named in fact stole the thunder from Rajni himself in Padayappa. There is a strong rumour in the state that this is Rajni’s last movie. After that what? Well, reports have it that he may get into spirutuality or politics. A definitive word is expected on the issue during the cassette release of the film. So all eyes are on July 15. |
ラジニが正しいタイミングを掴むのを信じよう。
彼のブロックバスター・Babaの撮影が先週の木曜日に終了し、後は映画への音入れが 映画は7月15日にカセット発売、独立記念日(8月15日)に封切る予定です。 政治的な内容を含むのか? スレーシュ・クリシュナが付け加える: スレーシュ・クリシュナは知っているに違いない。 彼は、かつてラジニと組んで3つのメガ・ヒット『Veera』、『アンナーマライ』、『バーシャ!』を世に送りだした。 『Baba』はチェンナイ、マイソールおよびスイスで撮影された。 この映画はアーティストの銀河のように大挙して出演している。 最後に指名されたラミヤーは、実際、『パダヤッパ』の中で主役のラジニを喰う勢いだった。 これがRajniの最後の映画であるという根強い噂がある。 決定的な発言は映画のカセット・リリースの7月15日に期待され、注目が集まる。 |

Suresh Krishna on ‘Baba’ | スレーシュ・クリシュナー監督のコメント |
We started the film on March 24th. We shot for 75 days. We shot the film in Mysore, Hyderabad, Switzerland and Chennai. After Veera, Annamalai and Baasha the expectation from the public is very high. We have politics in the film and lots of graphics done by our own people and some in Australia. Ramya is the surprise element in the film. We have filmed 5 songs and five fight sequences. Audiocassettes will be released on July 15th and the film will hit the screen on August 15th. Manisha Koirala, Sangavi, Delhi Ganesh, Nambiar, Sujatha, Goundamani, Senthil, Ashish Vidyaarthi, Vijayakumar, Radha Ravi, Ramya, Nassar, Seema, Karunas, Vasu Vikram are the artistes. Sayaji Shinde and Amrish Puri play guest roles. For your information there is no Chiranjeevi or Mohan Babu in the film. Rajni reported for shooting at 6 am and worked for 18 hours a day. This made it possible for us to finish before the scheduled date. As for Prakashraj walking out of the film, we did not sign him on. He came on his own and loitered around in the sets and left. |
私たちは3月24日に撮影を開始し、75日で完了するのを目標にしていた。 私たちは、マイソール、ハイデラバード、スイスおよびチェンナイで撮影した。 Veera、AnnamalaiおよびBaashaといった作品の後、周囲の期待が非常に高かった。 ランミャーは、この映画の中でサプライズな要素だ。 Rajniは撮影のために、朝6時から、1日当たり18時間働いたと言っている。 映画を降板したプラカーシュラージについては、契約していなかった。 |

Lawrence and ‘Baba’: A Flashback! | 出世して再会 |
Lawrence, the choreographer-turned-hero, who is to direct the dance sequences of ‘Baba’ has an interesting incident to narrate. During his early days, when he was merely a car driver to stunt-director Super Subbarayan, he had driven his master to the shooting locale of Rajini’s ‘Dharmadurai’. Everyday, Rajini would watch Lawrence clean the car. One day, an assitant told Rajini that Lawrence, the car driver, could dance as well. Rajini, who was surprised, then called Lawrence and asked him to dance before him. He than asked Lawrence to meet him the following Thursday, after the shooting schedule was over. When Lawrence actually met him, he gave him a letter and asked him to go to Choreographers’ Union, give them the letter and tell them that he had sent him. “Take up dancing as your profession,” the superstar had then advised. Today,the same ‘driver-turned-dancer-master’ Lawrence was choreographing |
『Baba』のダンスを振りつけるローレンス(かつて振付師だったが、やがてヒーローを演じる俳優に転じた)には、興味深いエピソードがある。
若い頃、スタント・マスター Super Subbarayanの単なる運転手にすぎなかったとき、 それで驚いたラジニは、ローレンスに電話し、次の木曜日の撮影の後に、自分の前で踊ってみてくれ、と彼に依頼した。 今や、同じ「ドライバーからダンスマスターに出世した」ローレンスは、『Baba』用の「スーパースターから伝説になった」ラジニの振り付けをしていた。 ラジニは椅子から飛び上がるとローレンスを抱きしめ、 |
この月は、監督のコメントがようやくあがってきました。個人的には、ダンスマスター・ローレンスのエピソードがとてもよかったです。
それでは、わなっかん!
