If one looks at neighbouring Tamil Nadu, the films there have titles which are Tamil words.
On the other hand, in Telugu, the film-makers don’t go that extra mile to find a suitable Telugu title. If they can get away with it, they go for English titles and they don’t have any qualms about doing that too.
But slowly and steadily, film-makers are realizing the beauty of naming a Telugu film with a Telugu title and one can already see the difference clearly.
Following the success of Attarintiki Daaredi, many heroes have been opting for proper Telugu titles.
For example, Mahesh’s forthcoming films will be called Sreemanthudu and Brahmotsavam.
Earlier, Ram Charan had acted in Govindudu Andari Vaadele and Venkatesh-Mahesh film was called Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu.
Recently, Nagarjuna and family acted in Manam while Venkatesh-Pawan Kalyan’s film was called Gopala Gopala.
Not to be left behind, we have had small films called Dikkulu Choodaku Ramayya, Lakshmi Raave Maa Intiki, etc. Though the titles are catching on, English titles do pop up once in while, but by and large, the trend is towards having proper Telugu titles. Surely, it is a change for good.
