South Indians should do a movie mocking cringe Bollywood

[Smidr]

You can take Hey Ram as an example written and directed by Kamal Haasan. All the main actors are from the same ethnicity of their characters except Mahatma Gandhi because to symbolically say he's beyond that. And all those parts of India shown in that movie was represented as rooted as possible to the culture and to that specific time period.

[manashpratimborah]

And North Eastern don't even get to feature in 99% bollywood movies 😂

[ayushs]

Literally every character from a different culture/state is stereotyped in bollywood not just south indians.
All Punjabis are chicken and beer loving loud people that randomly say Burrraahhh!!
All Bengalis are artists and love macchi(fish).
All Goans are Parsi and love their cars.
All Nepalis work as a watchmen.

[vishnu.bharadwaj]

India should be allowed atleast 3 movies for International language movie for Oscars.. !! 😭
Polish, Danish, German and Dutch get individual entries.. !!
Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Assamese, Hindi, Bhojpuri etc all get one entry altogether..!!

There was one depiction of a South Indian, that kind of hurt me, was in the movie Airlift... Where a South Indian was shown as an trouble-maker during the crisis. While in the real life scenario, one South Indian was one of the main supports for helping those strangled in the crisis... 🤷‍♀️

Well the movie was superb. But this was not fair, I felt... 🙏

[aeroshuvankar]

For a longest time Bengalis were represented in an extremely stereotypical way but that changed because of Bengali Directors in Bollywood like Sujoy Ghosh, Soojit Sircar, Anurag Basu and Pradeep Sarkar. Even in olden days Hrishikesh Mukherjee Bimal Roy did the same.

I have never seen north indian portrayed ridiculosly in our movies.why these northies getting insecure and defending these in comments?

[TheRealKogul]

The issue with South Indian representation in bollywood is not that they are caricatures, it is that they are tasteless and crass. Many caricatures of North Indian/Marwaris/Sardars (but not as bad ) exist in Tamil but these movies are not marketed outside Tamil Nadu. The problem is that bollywood is ambitious & it wants money from all of India, hence needs to be more responsible and not portray only caricatures. That's why I loved Family Man and Farzi as they portrayed Tamil & Telugu speaking characters who code switch as per the situation (which is what you will expect in real life). It required OTT and South Indian origin creators to fix this...

[rummy]

They also dont know the difference between South Indians. For them, all are Tamil

[shestyles]

Tamil people are more than what other region people think ❤

[MinisterOfAffairs]

It is a fact that Bollywood has been mocking other woods for a long time and have gotten away with it but have been caught now with their lungis down, thanks to the internet, youtube, OTT etc.

Over the past 5 odd years all of India got opportunities to watch each other's language movies due to youtube and OTT, further accelerated by the pandemic. In particular, a lot of the Hindi speaking audience got exposed to movies from other languages and started to appreciate their actors, directors and movies. They also discovered the sheer volume of remakes made in Bollywood and how most of the originals were more grounded and better. *The Hindi audience are not idiots* They got fed up of Bollywood and are demanding higher quality of content, acting etc. especially when other language industries are making them. BTW, regional language movies (including Malayalam) also have shitty movies that are mega flops. *Summary* - Gone are the days of language barriers and quality of the content rules.

Bollywood makes fun of everyone, not only South Indians.
Punjabi
Bihari
Bhojpuri and the list goes on.

[normanmadray]

Try watching Humhe Rahi Pyar ke released in 1993 starring Amir Khan and Juhi Chawla. You will notice that Juhi Chawla, who plays a tamil girl actually does justice to the character she plays, and speaks tamil very well. Very refreshing from the stereotyping I have seen.

[viksjolt]

that's how bollywood depicts bengalis, punjabis, nepalis and pretty much everybody else except for marathis for obvious reasons.

[nanditameenakshi]

Whatever said and done...I think most people even from other northern states would agree on Bollywood stereotypes of Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengalis, UP people and so on... I'm not talking about good Hindi cinema but in the name of doing commercial movies...the portrayal is so shitty.. being the sooo called second largest film industry... Bollywood should become wayyy more responsible...even if you point a few films where south Indians cosplay North Indian...I'm sorry to say the list is higher when it comes to Bollywood...every freaking time it's a Tamil Brahmin in every goddamn movie with a bunch of kathakali dancers in the background

[authoenthu]

That's how Bollywood shows even foreign or English characters also stereotypes 😂

[NileshKumar-nrvj]

What happened to Bombay Talkies, part 3 and 4 ?

[kavinanil]

We should all stop learning about human societies through Films, movies or entertainment industry. If one wants to study about people, social history and anthropology needs to be studied. Movies are not the way to learning about a human culture and societies...!!

[yucku]

South films ridiculing North Indians and North Indian culture are very rare (compared to the opposite). Yes, there exist a few but very very less (compared to the opposite).
Mani-Ratnam made a Tamil movie "Mouna Raagam" in the 80s, filmed mostly in Delhi, and yet North Indians & their culture were shown with a lot of respect and true to their form (with minimal ridicule). Yet to see a mainstream Bollywood film that did the same for South Indians and their culture.
This particular stereotyping doesn't sell much in South India. This is probably because there's insane amount of diversity in a very small area in South India (very different languages, different cuisines, different dance-forms - all in a relatively small land area). So acceptance of different Indian cultures - as they are - comes naturally.
By comparison, North India is much more homogeneous, linguistically (again by comparison to the South), so not being able to speak/understand their primary language (Hindi) is tantamount to not being Indian, while in South, not being able to speak their local language is not strange at all.
