Baashha (1995) – Rajinikanth’s Action Classic Re-Releases This Friday
Prepare for a powerful dose of nostalgia as Baashha, the legendary 1995 Tamil action crime drama, makes a grand return to theatres this Friday! Starring the one and only Superstar Rajinikanth, along with Nagma and Raghuvaran, this re-release is a celebration of one of Indian cinema’s most iconic films.
About the Film
Baashha is a film that redefined Tamil cinema and cemented Rajinikanth’s legacy as a mass entertainer. Directed by Suresh Krissna and produced by R. M. Veerappan, the film first hit theatres on January 12, 1995, and captivated audiences with its gripping storyline, unforgettable dialogues, and powerful music by Deva.
Plot Overview
The story follows Manickam (Rajinikanth), a kind-hearted and non-violent autorickshaw driver who lives a peaceful life with his family. But there’s more to him than meets the eye. Manickam’s past starts to resurface when he crosses paths with dangerous criminals, and the name “Baashha” begins to echo around him.
Who is Baashha? Is Manickam hiding a dark past? Why does he shy away from violence? These questions form the crux of a compelling narrative filled with action, emotion, and intense drama.
The film’s iconic transformation scene—where Manickam turns into the fearless Baashha—remains one of the most celebrated moments in Tamil cinema history.
