+When the honest autorickshaw driver
+Manickam (Rajnikant) falls for Priya (Naghma),
+daughter of the diamond smuggler Keshavan,
+the father recognises Manickam as the dreaded
+Bombay gangster Manik Badshah. In Bombay,
+Badsha ran a criminal gang mainly to fight arch
+rival Mark Anthony (Raghuvaran), who had
+killed his friend Anwar. After Badsha kills
+Anthony, he stages his own ‘death’ and finds
+himself a new identity. Badsha’s past catches
+up with him when his own brother Siva, a
+policeman, reopens the old police file, and
+further when Keshavan, Anthony’s former
+cashier, kills Anthony’s wife and steals his
+wealth and his daughter Priya. Badsha
+eventually kills Keshavan and marries Priya.
+This enormous hit, along with Annamalai
+(1992) by the same director, was seen as the
+Tamil megastar’s entry into state politics with
+numerous rhetorical devices announcing his
+opposition to the ruling AIADMK government
+(eg. lines like ‘It is not important how we fight,
+what is more important is who we fight
+against’).
