Previously, there were some directors down South who made Bollywood films but they turned out to be a big name in Indian cinema. Legends like Raghavendra Rao gave some hits in Hindi cinema but did not make it big in Bollywood. Ram Gopal Varma created a unique brand of films in Bollywood but he never made record-breaking cinema. South directors did not make landmark game-changing clicks in Bollywood. But the new generation of South directors are creating history in Indian cinema and making everyone proud.
The first name one should mention is SS Rajamouli. He is an inspiration to many and he is the one who opened the pan-Indian gates to South cinema. He shook the entire nation with ‘Baahubali’ franchise and got international acclaim with ‘RRR’. He brought Oscar to India. He is in a league of his own at the moment. The next guy in the list is Prasanth Neel. He made a Kannada movie which catered to the nationwide audience. The second part earned 1200 crores and created records. His next film ‘Salaar’ is one of the most-awaited projects and buyers in the North are competing for the rights.
Sukumar deserves a special mention for making Allu Arjun and ‘Pushparaj’ character iconic without any kind of promotions. The second part is already making waves and huge offers are coming for this flick which is still in the production stage. Nelson and Lokesh Kanagaraj made super hits like ‘Jailer’ and ‘Vikram’ which got a lot of love from North India as well.
Now, Atlee went to Bollywood and made ‘Jawan’ with Shah Rukh Khan. Atlee is just four films old and the way he presented SRK on the big screen is making the North Indians go crazy in theatres. Sandeep Reddy Vanga created ripples with ‘Kabir Singh’ in Hindi and his ‘Animal’ is one of the biggest projects being made in Bollywood. This shows that the South directors are ruling the roost right now and they are going to shatter many records in the coming days.
