People across the country celebrated India's victory over terrorists when Indian Army and Air Force conducted surgical strikes. Patriotism among people is increasing across the country as Union Government led by PM Modi started giving free hand to the armed forces.
The real life happenings inspired Bollywood to come up with few patriotic films. However, surprisingly Tollywood became a silent spectator. It is known that Tollywood is known to follow a trend and even now following the routine trend of one successful film.
Sometime back Tollywood makers used to make patriotic films. But now it reached zero level. Filmmakers and movie lovers are more interested in coming up with love stories, horror and crime thrillers, rather than patriotic films. They are failing to realize that it is not enough for them to have patriotism but also with their films instill patriotism among people.
Power Star Pawan Kalyan used to include one or the other scene to inspire patriotism among movie lovers with his films. In South films like Major Chandrakanth, Azad, Kalapani, Indian, Khadgam stole the hearts of all. Now the makers are not even thinking in those lines.
Bollywood however came up with films saluting the Kargil war heroes, Uri Attack and surgical strikes and paid rich tributes to soldiers. Now the question is why Tollywood directors who have got the talent to make powerful patriotic films are not thinking in those lines. Recently Uri-The Surgical Strike collected Rs 230 crs nett alone in India and they are now planning sequel after the IAF strikes across Pakistan.
One cannot imagine how much inspiration heroics of Armed Forces give to the people of the country. Wonder why Tollywood filmmakers like RGV, Puri Jagannadh and others are coming up with only satirical routine entertainers.
