Is It True Manisha Koirala's Tamil Film Career Got Flop By Superstar Rajinikanth?

Manisha Koirala co-starred with Rajinikanth in the 2002 Tamil film 'Baba,' which was a box office flop. It was Manisha's last film in Kollywood, and she was never seen in another Tamil film after that. Manisha Koirala recently revealed in an interview that she had high hopes for Rajinikanth's 'Baba,' but it was a flop. Koirala stated that she never received offers from the Tamil film industry after her flop film. Manisha stated about her flop career in Tamil cinema, "Baba was probably my last big Tamil film. It flopped so badly in those days. It was a huge disaster."

She added, "Lot of expectations were on the film, and when it flopped, I thought my career in south films was gone completely, and it did in a way. After Baba flopped, I stopped getting offers. Strangely, the film turned out to be a hit when it was re-released, which is unheard of. Rajini sir can never give a flop. He is such a kind man to work with." Remarkably, 'Baba' was re-released last year on Rajinikanth's birthday, and the film succeeded.
