Tiger

About This Movie

So, 'Tiger' from '79 is this interesting blend of action and drama that brings together NTR and Rajinikanth in early roles. You can definitely feel the intensity between Raja and Rashid, their shared history adds a layer of weight to their rivalry. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it gives you time to soak in the atmosphere of the era. And those practical effects, while not always perfect, have this raw charm that feels genuine. Both leads deliver solid performances, and it's fascinating to see them together, especially knowing where their careers would go. There's a certain vibe here that just draws you in, a kind of nostalgia for the golden age of Indian cinema.

Finding 'Tiger' can be a bit of a challenge, especially in good condition. It hasn’t had as many re-releases as some other titles from that era, which adds to its appeal for collectors. Those who appreciate the early works of NTR and Rajinikanth often seek this one out, not just for the performances but also for its place in the evolution of action cinema in India. If you come across a physical copy, it might just be worth adding to your collection.
