Any criticism of the movie ‘Baahubali’ is being met with shocked silence. It has almost become taboo to say anything even remotely negative against any aspect of the movie. Such has been the orchestrated media campaign.
Baahubali has become the highest ever grosser in the history of Tollywood. It also put Telugu cinema back at the helm as it made India sit up and take notice of its collections.
Now, as with any other movie, there will be people who like Baahubali and those who do not like it. But attempts to express a non-positive opinion on the film are being termed as anti-Telugu.
How can criticizing a movie be termed anti-Telugu? Admittedly, Baahubali has put the focus on Tollywood. There is no doubt about it.Yet, at the end of the day, it is just a movie and one can either like it or not. Therefore, attaching regional or cultural connotations to criticism is highly unfair and uncalled for.
PK does not make the Hindi speaking people superior to other Indians; neither does Baahubali make the Telugus superior to other Indians or Robo, the Tamilians.At the end of the day, we are all Indians, irrespective of our differences and a movie is just that, a movie and nothing more.
