The social media folks belonging to Kollywood and Tamil film lovers seem to have been hurt by low ratings and negative word-of-mouth for the Telugu version of Mani Ratnam’s “Ponniyan Selvan”.
Forgetting that the subject is unfamiliar to the Telugu audiences, they are insinuating that the Telugu media and Telugu film lovers are envious of Mani Ratnam’s craft.
First and foremost the novel on which the film is based is not popular in the Telugu states.
Mani Ratnam didn't make anything easier for non-Tamilians to comprehend the whiff of the dense plot. So, the negative talk came from the Telugu audiences.
Neither the Telugu media nor Telugu film lovers dislike Mani Ratnam or Tamil films. The Telugu audiences have been embracing all Tamil movies that got dubbed into Telugu for many decades.
But some senseless and enraged Tamil journalists and influencers have started negative trends on upcoming Telugu biggies. They are planning to fail those biggies in Tamilnadu.
But can anyone stop a good film in any language or region?
