Muthu

We kick off Indian Cinema Month this year to coincide with launch of the Bollywood Cinema Club, our first all Indian cinema biweekly podcast, with a look at a Tamil classic: Muthu. Starring superstar Rajnikanth as the titular Muthu, it follows him as he is tasked with babysitting his boss' fiancee which causes him to learn the truth about his entire life. It's a story that's Shakespearean in scope but also happens to feature Hong Kong-style action, musical numbers, and a chariot chase for the ages.The Projection Booth's Mike White and Mondo Heather's Heather Drain join Chris to talk about Rajnikanth, his expansive career, and that wild chariot chase scene.
