With the Twitter feud between Ajay Devgn and Sudeep raging, the netizens were quick to point out the dependence of Bollywood on the Southern film industries. Just last week we saw the release of the Hindi remake of Nani’s Jersey.
Bollywood is a pale shadow of its former self and is completely dependent on Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada films. As many as 25 Bollywood remakes are lined up in the coming days. Ajay Devgn’s statement of Hindi being the national language carries no merit at all.
Films like Baahubali and KGF series, RRR and Pushpa have already established the box-office supremacy of southern films.
From Tamil, films like Vikram Vedha, Sorrrai Pottru, Kaithi, Aniyan, Aruvi, and Master are some of the films confirmed for Bollywood remakes.
Coming to Telugu, Ala Vaikunthapurramulo, Chatrapathi, Naandi, and F2 are some of the confirmed remake projects with many more on the way.
Many critically acclaimed Malayalam movies like Drishya, Ayyapannum Koshiyum, Hridayam and many more will be remade while U-Turn from Kannada is confirmed as of now.
With so many southern films being remade in Hindi, it is safe to say that Bollywood is now completely dependent on South cinema and it’s no longer the numero uno industry.
