Sometimes the double standards being followed National Media houses irritate people in the native states. Especially when it comes to reporting something from the South, especially from Telugu states, National Media Houses show their true colours, says Telugu folks.
At a time when Baahubali 2 went on to become highest grossing Indian movie and shattered the records in Bollywood as well, National Media reported in all possible ways except calling it a Telugu film. Some called it a pan-Indian movie, some said Tamil film and some said it’s made with an intent to click with North audiences. Rarely they called this magnum opus as a “Telugu Movie”.
Now, if we look at National television, surely the name “Telugu Film Industry” “Tollywood” and “Telugu Stars” are doing rounds all the way. This is because some big names from the industry are being heard for receiving notices regarding their drug addiction. Even without any spelling mistake or generalising it as a southern film industry, almost all media houses are specifying that it is Telugu film industry from Hyderabad.
But why such specification missed during reporting of Baahubali 2 and its success is the question now. Yes, it is a ‘positive’ thing we won’t let just one language or one state take the share, but if it is a negative thing then we will credit it to them only. Isn’t this their motto?
