Selvaraghavan’s opinion on South films topping Bollywood

Director – Actor Selvaraghavan who is known for delivering many promising films has opined on the current trending topic in Indian cinema: “whether South films are toppling Bollywood”.We all know that many Pan Indian films like Baahubali, RRR, Pushpa and KGF have managed to appeal to the masses.

“I think now every time a good film comes in, it gets appreciated like The Kashmir Files or Gangubai (Kathiawadi) or RRR. I think good content has no language barriers because how long are you going to remember you’re watching a Telugu or Tamil film? I think it’s all about movie-watching experience rather than differentiating them into South or (Bollywood),” Selvaraghavan said.

“Every director’s or every technician’s dream, when we all started and now that we are doing it (is) how we are representing Indian cinema in the world. It should be in one voice rather than seeing like this section or that section. Because we differentiate it here, people start saying, ‘it’s a Tamil film or it is a Telugu film or it is from the north’. I think the time has come for us (that) we all stand together. That’s how I see it. We are all Indians and everybody’s language is special,” he said.

Selvaraghavan was last seen in Saani Kaayidham, which has released on Amazon Prime and has received rave reviews from audiences. The film also stars Keerthy Suresh in the lead, and they play killers with their own sense of justice. He was also seen in Vijay starrer Beast.
