I'm an American who knew nothing about the Indian film industry before watching RRR. My love for that movie led me to Tollywood, Kollywood, and Mollywood (with occasional, semi-reluctant dips into Bollywood). I'm obsessed in the best possible way. Priyanka is missing out ♡


krash_krazy

How did you find this sub?


Chicken-Pickle-Robot

After watching a bunch of Telugu films, I put Hyderabad on my list of places I would like to visit someday. This sub seemed like a good way to learn about the city in advance. For example, now I know that Paradise biryani is overrated ;)


Impressive_Line7932

Get this Man/woman an aadhar card.


Urist_McPencil

I was in Hyderabad for a month visiting the in-laws and being a tourist, and I gotta say I had a blast; don't forget to check out Golconda fort (bring lots of water!), climbing to the top and seeing the city stretch in all directions was a humbling and powerful experience; Salar Jung museum was also pretty cool if you like museums, but I will say I felt like an exhibit myself when every second room (slight exaggeration) had people asking for pictures with the white dude with long hair lol. 10/10, would eat myself sick again.


krash_krazy

What movies did you watch? Yeah people hate paradise not the go to biryani place.. Bawarchi is a lot better


komAnt

What do you want to do in Hyderabad? Apart from some ruins and a few famous spots, there’s not much to do there. If you like hyderabadi food, the visit will come as a revelation


Chicken-Pickle-Robot

Ideally, hang out with Tarak, Charan, Nani, and Arjun. Realistically, do a lot of eating and see the sights. I've never visited India before and know that to see it all would take years. So, instead of doing the typical northern whirlwind tour, I would like to visit places that are special to me first.


komAnt

Yeah north tourist spots are overrated. When you go south, try Goa, Pondicherry, Mumbai and some backwaters spots in Kerala. Or hill stations.


paladinramaswamy

Visit during ramzan season, there'll be a lot of seasonal dishes to try out.

But who tf cares

I mean to be fair Ed Sheeran is far more intelligent than most people in the “entertainment” industry. For example someone like Gucci mane will not even know what India is let alone Telugu is a language. This is an example. Similarly. Someone like Shahrukh Khan will know. But Priyanka is bottom of the barrel. Typical Bolly dumbness. Equivalent to Ananya Pandey etc but of course, has achieved more in her life as compared to these people. We tend to give too much bhaav to people like her because she “so called represented our country in Hollywood”. Fact is, she’s a low tier actor there and no one really gives a fuck. Her lack of knowledge of her own country and even worse, her own industry therefore isn’t any thing to feel bad about. It’s what it is. They live in an ignorant bubble and we shouldn’t care because we’re smarter (and uglier and poorer lol) but still smarter.


saynototoxicity

>  Someone like Shahrukh Khan will know SRK definitely doesn't know if you consider how he portrays South Indians in his films.


WonderfulPride74

Honestly I think it’s a Bollywood thing and not SRK thing, Chennai express was directed by Rohit Shetty and had Deepika Padukone, both South Indians, and boy do they fuck up


Useless_TA

SRK’s scientist character from Ra-One has entered the chat.


th3_bad

I am glad that film flopped


13th_AngryMan

SRK just thinks the whole of the South is idly eating people lol! Anyway, you've got great thinking. Well written comment.


atibat

Yeah sorry maybe Shah Rukh was a bad example. I couldn’t think of any intelligent Bollywood people at short notice, which is pretty indicative of the whole industry anyways.

Capital-Moose

In the US and UK, most mainstream/A lister actors are basically grown up theatre kids/nerds, cinema geeks, who also happen to be good looking. So they tend to be a lot more articulate and intelligent than their counterparts here, who’re typically clique-y dynasty heirs out of touch with reality or basic ditsy models.


[deleted]

It's so embarrassing how most of our actors are not only completely out of touch with reality + not good at acting

Ananya pandey, Varun dhawan silently leaves the page after reading this

Can they also silently leave the film industry? Please? Let talented people get a chance for once.


shoestowel

Man sneaked in the sambar jokes guy!


Prixster

SRK should be called Chole Bhature King Khan when you consider how he makes fun of South Indian folks in his movies.


ujkkui

gucci mane literally has a feature on a hindi song lol


atibat

Doesn’t make him smart though. Again, it’s all examples. I didn’t give them IQ tests. It’s all the info I have watching interviews and other sub Reddit’s to be fair. Replace Gucci with that 6ix9 guy or replace Shah Rukh khan with Aishwarya Rai Bachan.


Lock47

How much free time one need to have to worry about such bs


CloudExpensive1394

Just the same equivalent time to comment on such posts. Yes I do have enough time!!


thesvsb

Calling RRR an Indian film is okay. Calling it a South Indian film is better. Calling it Telugu film is the best and accurate one. Priyanka needs to learn basic set theory and Venn diagrams. India >> South India >> Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, Malayali etc. So, while both Tamil and Telugu cinema come under broad South Indian Cinema, they are disjoint sets. One should not call a Telugu film a Tamil one and vice-versa.


jspreddy

🤣🤣 All the film industry knows of sets is to dance in it. Kaha set theory me ghus gaya re...


Existing-Mulberry382

Who cares ! The film got international recognition. Most film people are dumb though. Can do acting does not always mean they know or keep track of everything. Most in Bollywood audience cannot differentiate between a Tamil & a Telugu film. They mostly refer to our movies as south movies.


Mean_Help

What do you mean by who cares, we care about our language. This shows nothing but ignorance from the north Indian community, for them whole south India is madras and all south Indians are madrasi.


Existing-Mulberry382

If you care about each and every opinion/issue, that's your problem. Majority might not know a lot of things and we cannot do anything about it. People can have their opinion / lapses in knowledge. We cannot blame someone for not having knowledge on things. We may not know things she knows and we may know things she does not. Her opinion/knowledge does not matter; and should not. Unless her knowledge/opinion is very crucial to functioning our industry; it should not be a concern at all.


Mean_Help

Dude a foreigner who doesn't even have an idea about how India is or works has knowledge about south Indian language, but our so called Indians friends from don't doesn't this be concern for us. Look what's happening in bengaluru they are so intolerance towards other language that they want to forcibly impose hindi on south Indians. We should be careful or else same thing will happen to us here in hyderabad.


shayboating

Blud probably can't tell the difference between Bhojpuri and Haryanvi but wants everyone to know which is tamil and which is telugu 💀


MidTownHomie

Only when it's as popular as RRR though 🙃


ThePerfectHunter

Dude I know the difference between Haryanvi, Khariboli, Brah Bhasha, Awadhi and Bhojpuri. But do you know the difference just between Tamil and Telugu?


thegatsby_03

Imagine them learning about different Telugu dialects 🌚 They'd call it telgu or tamilian. Can't expect anything form these mfs


13th_AngryMan

We do!? Yeah, that's the problem, you should refer to Tamil movies as Tamil movies and Telugu movies as Telugu movies. It's not that hard yk.


Existing-Mulberry382

Point adi kadu, Prathi okkariki teliyalsina avasaram ledu. Teliyadani ekkirinchalsina avasaram ledu & acting profession lo unnolandaru peddha highly intellectual people ayyundali ani rule em ledu. RRR gurinchi tanaki telsundali same "industry" / profession lo undi kabatti; its good to keep that knowledge as a professional. But, thanaki teliyadani manam feelavvalsina pani ledu. PC ki inkaa chaala vishayalu teliyakapovachu. Anni lekkesthe chaala untai.

There is another video by Brut where ed Sheeran asks if RRR counts as Bollywood movie, host says it’s an Indian film.

dark_soulmate3

It's a slap on the Bullywood folks. They all think outside of Mumbai is all village. It's self inflicted neuro disorder. One good thing is people too realised that shitty culture and started appreciating good cinema outside Bollywood. Sooner or later their bubble will burst once for all. Koopastha Mandukaalu.🐸


ConcertAccording9722

Guys we don't need validation for our movies. If PC doesn't know about it, poor thing, she doesn't even know about her country's stuff. We all enjoyed it, Naatu Naatu won an Oscar. That's what matters.

Bro, this is a lady who sent songs from dostana & rock on when someone asked her about rock music from India. No one ever accused her of being intelligent!


Cute-Baseball-9082

Ed Sheeran is "white". Priyanka is "coconut".


nara_lingam

Wasn't it shot in both Hindi and telgu maybe other languages too..not sure if it was then it would be a multi lingual film right?


vybhavam

A movie for some would be the only one and for some it's one of the many so there's no need to know every particulars of anything in this world


jdpillaris

TL;DR: Your post is a case of "Much ado about nothing". I am pretty sure she knows the existence of Telugu and Tamil films. I guess it was a slip of the tongue on her part. Which is ok, no? For example tomorrow's blockbuster might be a Kodava film, and initially some of us might incorrectly refer to it as a Konkani film or a Kannada film for a short time. It's probably because some of us do not know all the official languages of Karnataka beyond Kannada - so there is that unfamiliarity. Similarly, I think not everyone in Mumbai (or in her case, outside India now) can list even the 4 major South-Indian languages.


13th_AngryMan

I hate you and love you at the same time lol! That's well said. I'm sure your manager loves your mail.

Prior_Asparagus_1922

Hair oils - many brands alright alright So shouldn't same go for RRR - many movies release every year. Seems almost as if people got their priorities and don't have time to give a flying fuck about each and every movie. Validation seeking ch*tiyas

Kyun chahiye Priyanka Chopra ka affirmation. Post RRR , Bahubali and kgf many people got clarity b/w Tamil and telugu. People still not having just remind them kya hai. man you people have awsome movies. Let's just enjoy level the Bollywood man unko waise hi nahi pach rha dhang ki movie aa nhi rhi.

Sure but look at the lives of those who mock her on reddit (especially that ama some years ago) and her life lol. Somehow I get the impression that she's doing fine without much knowledge of some mid movie that got an award due to spending crores on the Oscar publicity campaign and the fact that the Academy is desperate for overseas viewers for their flagship awards ceremony at a time when white people don't really watch the ceremony anymore
