Nagarjuna Explains the Northern Success of ‘Pushpa’ and ‘KGF

Mumbai: Famous South Indian actor Nagarjuna recently shared his thoughts on why movies like “Pushpa” and “KGF” are so popular in northern India. He said that people there love to watch big heroes who can do amazing things. For example, Allu Arjun’s character in “Pushpa,” a man who goes from being a laborer to a smuggler, really excited audiences in places like Bihar, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh. “Pushpa” made more money in Hindi than in Telugu, which surprised many people.

Nagarjuna explained that stories like those in “Pushpa” and “KGF” are not new to Telugu audiences, but they really connect with the people in the North. He believes that when people are stressed in their everyday lives, they want to escape and see something magical on screen.

The actor also talked about the importance of being true to your roots. For example, director Rajamouli made “Baahubali” feel like a Telugu film, and that’s why it became a huge success worldwide. Nagarjuna joined other actors like Karthi, Anupam Kher, and Kushboo Sundar at a big film event called the World Audio Visual and Entertainment Summit.

Actor Karthi noted that Allu Arjun didn’t become famous overnight. He already had a big following because of films like “Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo,” which people loved even during the COVID times. Karthi also mentioned that people in places like Maharashtra knew about Telugu actors because they had been watching dubbed versions of their movies.

Kushboo Sundar shared that many men relate to the strong characters in these films. They like seeing heroes who can fight and protect their families, even if it seems a little exaggerated.

Anupam Kher added that honesty in storytelling is very important. He said that movie makers need to be real instead of trying too hard to be cool. If they tell honest stories, people will connect with them.
