Why is Rajinikanth so famous ? https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_confused.gif


He is famous in south, this is what i know https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_wink.gif
After reading above comments & after a google search came to know something about Tamil/Telugu/kannada https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

The most probable reason why local/regional guys are more famous there is language barrier….
I remember a Tamil teacher in my school and Hindi was like alien language to her https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

Mostly all Bollywood movies are in Hindi and outlines North India culture and this is why they can’t connect to their local culture and prefer local movie content against hindi movies https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_smile.gif

Though most of us go to watch a movie only for entertainment, I don’t think anyone will go to a movie to show their moral support. A movie will be successful if it has stuff/entertainment irrespective of where it comes from. Period.

Watched the movie yesterday to find what the hype is all about. Turned out to be an okayish kind of movie. Rajni’s acting was very good though. It was very difficult to get the ticket online. Had to pull some strings to get hold of a ticket offline.

Ahh Magus cool bro cool,
I am not saying bahubali is a great content based flim, you can see my views on bahubali here : http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...

I am not talking about bahubali actually, there are many content based/story based flims in telugu which tamil nadu people never encouraged/supported,
But irrespective of talk(hit or flop) we always support tamil movies…

As said by @vns11
It is like… if we release a good telugu movie in TN, maximum the collection from TN will be not more than 2C, But at the same time we are giving more than 10-20c to a average Tamil movie

official reports is around 100crores on first day .but it did break first day collection records… and moreover to people talking about 120rs tickets, the original ticket prices in chennai were around thousand,and in other places 250 to 1000… but the collection only shows the ticket prices as 120, so is not the original collection. original collection maybe around 100 crores in tamil nadu alone remember it released in 75% of all the theatres in Tamilnadu and 50-75% in some other states

True. Not just Tamil, even Telugu and Hindi people doesn’t encourage Good content based movies. PRDP is one among the highest grosser, but Swades is a flop movie.:-? Mollywood is an exception. Sandalwood is slowly improving.

So called critics here in dd should see film in general not to support regionally..where the hell language barrier comes in?telegu dubbed movies goes well sometimes if the story is good like karthikeya,some mahesh babu movies…
But telegu audience are much used to action rather than content ..ex:1, instead they give some lame tamil movie dubbed in telegu as hits like vishal,karthi,surya movies
Discuss movie in terms of content..
Are u really feel we people support good movies…no..(prem ratan paya 55 crores 1st day collection..do u think that movie worth it?)
Personally i feel bahubali is a great film but not deserves best national film award rather than TALWAR instead rajamouli should have got the best director which isnt
Regarding kabali though hyped by thanu is one of few films which shows the actor rajini in a film rather than superstar like his other movies.DOT
