As audience, we would always like to see historical and period movies because it gives us an opportunity to travel back in time and know our roots of existence and how our present was shaped. So, if the makers plan for a large canvas, it would help.
That’s what happens in Bollywood and the film Bajirao Mastani is an example. Though the story of the Brahmin king Bajirao was related to Maharashtra it was made on a national level and it got a very good response from the audience. Now, the same is being planned for a Telugu flick.
Megastar Chiranjeevi is reportedly preparing for his 151st and this is slated to be the true story of the freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy. Sources say plans are on to make this on a national canvas as the subject would appeal to pan Indian audience. This would be a very good move then.
