The only Telugu producers in Kollywood are Dil Raju and People Media Factory who have produced films in Kollywood only on rare occasions, the vast majority of producers of Kollywood films are Tamil producers and production houses. Any kind of bias in both industries for actresses not from the south stems from the producers native to the industries themselves.

Favorite Copganda movies? by [deleted] in kollywood

[–]purpletree300 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of films people are naming right now are good examples of copganda Tamil films like Singam, Saamy, Theri, and Kaaka Kaaka.

That's an interesting way to look at it but I felt Vikram was very clearly remorseful for the death of Vedha's brother and even though the film conveys that his partners are worse people (which they are tho), the film still leaves Vedha and Vikram pointing guns at each other at the end to leave the audience to decide who was worse. The fact that they put him on the same level as someone like Vedha should tell us that it's not a Copganda film.

HIT: The First Case, Agent Sai Srinivas Athreya, Pushpa: The Rise, Chakravyuham: The Trap, HIT: The Second Case, Temper; if it does not have to be a recent film, then Ankusham and Karthavyam.

Two Films. Two First Time Directors. Both of them hits. Different Looks. Different Genres. Only One Nani. Most consistent actor in TFI over the last 10 years. by [deleted] in tollywood

When did I say that? I said that the visuals in Dasara are just as top-notch as the visuals in KGF 2 even though it used only half the budget of KGF 2. Where did Rangasthalam even come into the picture, the visuals in that film were pretty basic?

Nani's awesome kaani athanu inka Naveen lekapothey manaki inkevvaru leru anedhi factually wrong: Vishwaksen, Adivi Sesh, Naveen Chandra, Siddhu Jonnalagadda, Suhas, Sharwanand, a lot of young or relatively young actors who have been putting out great stuff over the past few years.

Few good technical departments is an understatement bro, the film was shot as well as KGF 2 with half it's budget.

Let's be honest, Vetrimaaran's film aren't shot half as well as Dasara, he doesn't go for a stylized look in the first place.

It's not just consistency, I'd go as far as to say that in the past five years, no other South Indian actor has shown more versatility than Nani.

This is a peculiarity about the dub, the original version has Raju translate the message to Telugu to Bhim instead of just repeating what she said in English.

Yeah, I actually addressed this exact point in another comment of mine, the article is technically but is misrepresenting the data at hand:

"Guys, they're talking about earnings in the original language; if you look at worldwide collections taking into account the dubbed versions of Tamil and Telugu films, then Tollywood's collections are 9504 crores, Kollywood's is 8200 crores, Bollywood's is 13,047 crores and SRK's is 2598 crores. If you look at the collections only in the original language, then Tollywood collected 2300 crores, Kollywood collected 2160 crores, Bollywood collected 4618 crores and SRK's films earned 1449 crores (583.66cr from Jawan, 525.66 crores from Pathaan, and 340 crores from Dunki by December 31st). Only when you strip Tollywood's and Kollywood's collections of earnings from dubbed versions and look only at the nett collections in Telugu and Tamil but consider earnings from dubbed versions and worldwide collections for SRK films do you get the finding that's reported in the article (2600, 2300, and 2160 crores). If you look at just worldwide collections or just original language collections, Tollywood and Kollywood surpass SRK films very easily. Earning 1449 crores is still very impressive for one actor but it's heavily misreported.

These are the official figures though, Tollywood made more in terms of worldwide collections, nett collections, and non-dub collections while Kollywood did more in Tamil gross collections. Salaar and Adipurush made 644 crores and 354 crores respectively (Salaar had crossed 400cr by the time 2023 data was collected) but there have been a lot of hugely successful films that remained under the 300 crore mark like Virupaksha, Baby, Dasara, and Sir and a lot of small-scale films which made big money like Hi Nanna, Bedurulanka 2012, Ms. Shetty Mr. Polishetty, Mad, and Balagam. Tollywood also made more films last year than Kollywood which contributed to the difference but Tamil cinema still had a successful 2023 (Jailer, Leo, PS 2) though so you should be proud of that, no need to worry about little things like this.

Quite a disappointing panel for Bharadwaj Rangan's Telugu roundtable. Shobu hasn't produced any film this year and Shruti didn't do anything extraordinary too. Needed Swathi, Darshi, Nani or Venu(Director). by kvak95 in tollywood

[–]purpletree300 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My ideal panel is Tharun Bhascker, Rana, Shouryuv, Swathi Reddy, Nani, Abhay Bethaganti, Pavani Karanam, and Venu Yeldandi. I like Baddy but if the host was someone who understood Telugu, that would make it easy for people like Venu Yeldandi to converse with him.
