baahubali: here goes my rant.

arjunkapoors:

First of all, if you’re thinking this rant is about the movie. You’re really mistaken. It’s about my overall done-ness with the bullshit Bollywood’s been pulling. And before someone says “oh you’re a bolly blog how can you hate bollywood!1!!!1!!1″ i’m freaking telugu before i’m hindi and i’ll always be. so llsten to the bullshit that comes with being a south indian in a north indian fandom because trust me, it’s really exasperating. 

First things first, the fandom: baahubali is not a bollywood film. period. end all discussion. my word is law. that was a reference if you watched the movie.  Kindly learn the difference between dubbing and remakes. Let’s give you a scenario. If I dub for Anushka Sharma in NH10 for the telugu dubbing, does that make Anushka Sharma telugu? Does Telugu dubbing make NH10 a Telugu movie? No. So kindly learn the difference between dubbing and remakes. Remakes aren’t 100% Bollywood either. If I rewrite the lyrics to a song and keep same tune to a song, does that make it my song? Does that make a 100% my movie and my idea? NO. So like why do you have to watch crappy remakes? I’ve had my share in watching remakes, have I said they’re better than the original? Not once. Because remakes are just that, remakes. So like guys, you do have to branch out sometimes and realize that a remake is….a remake, don’t tag remakes JUST bollywood, tag them bollywood and tollywood/malluwood/kollywood/etc. Thank you. 

second things second, the bwood big guns: I saw a thing today and it said Prabhas and Rana weren’t first choices for Baahubali, it was Hrithik Roshan and John Abraham. YEAH RIGHT! Prabhas was promised this movie freaking 6 years ago. 6 YEARS AGO. You want to tell me that before he even had the idea in his head of the movie, he wanted to cast Hrithik instead? That’s bull freaking shit. Rajeev Masand. Stop reviewing films and calling the avalanche cheap and undressing her a weak link when there’s movies such as Ra.One and Ek Paheli Leela out there. But oh I’m sorry right it’s not like that had anything to do with the story at all right? Just gaining her trust so he can do her job. And Salman Khan, stfu. You did not tell Rana to become an actor. Rana’s been on film sets since the age of 7. He dropped out of school when he was in the 10th grade to pursue film, and you had something to do with that? Nah, nah, nah. If you were really that exponential in his career then he would atleast mention you in KTLVC, one of the biggest interview show of Tollywood. So kindly stop yourself right there. 

summary: basically if there’s a movie getting success out there, you should do the decent respect to treat it like it needs to be. not calling it bollywood when there’s not one hindi actor in the entire movie and telling people you told Rana to become an actor when he’s been on film sets since he was 7.
