Vijay’s name coming up again, ah. Reminds me of that old VCR tape of *Thalapathi* my father kept—still works if you blow on it just right. At the shop, when a new film comes out with that man, the village boys waste half my stock of Limca arguing over who’s the better dancer. I smile, but inside I’m thinking: where is the jadoo of *Mani Ratnam’s* politics in all this gloss? The poor still wait outside the theatre for the last show to drop price. We cheer for heroes while the real chai-wallahs count kharach till midnight.
