8 Bollywood Celebrities Who Spoke About South Indian Film Industry

There has been a lot of talk about the South film industry taking over Bollywood, especially with films like RRR, Pushpa, and KGF 2.

Nonetheless, substance reigns supreme, and the figures that South films generate in the Hindi marketplace are staggering.

But the debate rages on, and here’s what some Bollywood stars had to say about the Tollywood sector:

1. Nawazuddin Siddiqui

Nawazuddin Siddiqui briefly covered what he would alter in Bollywood. When asked about the South movie craze in Bollywood, he stated,

“One mistake that happened is that we kept doing remakes of South films. The biggest problem here is with the writers and stories, we are not making originals at all, leaving everything up to the remakes. I think we should take a lesson from that mistake and start making original films. That would be better.”

2. Sanjay Dutt

Sanjay Dutt, who is currently enjoying the popularity of KGF 2, spoke about the necessity for significantly bigger gallantry in Bollywood movies, saying,

“I think the Hindi film industry has forgotten the larger-than-life heroism. But the Southern industries didn’t forget heroism. I’m not saying that slice-of-life films or rom-coms are bad. But why have we forgotten our audience from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, and Rajasthan who make up a large section of our audience? I hope that trend comes back in the Hindi film industry. Earlier we had individual producers and financiers which the corporatization of film studios has brought to an end. Corporatization is good but that shouldn’t interfere with our taste in movies.”
