A Quote by Nivin Pauly

Four of my films have been remade in Tamil and Telugu. Although I haven't seen any of these remakes, I do feel happy that I've been a part of good films. It's nice to know that some scripts still leave behind a mark after their theatrical run this way, so I have to admit, it is quite flattering.

Wanted' and 'Rowdy Rathore', which I directed in Hindi, were remakes of Telugu hits. Telugu films have contributed to my growth in a big way.

Telugu and Tamil industries keenly watch Malayalam movies and are appreciative of the content, be it 'Ustad Hotel,' 'Premam' or 'Bangalore Days.' They've also been listening to our music. That's how I was approached for Telugu films.

You can make films, and often, they get released on four screens in the U.K. Although it's been interesting and good for you, if no one's seen it, what's the point?

Shaun Evans

I have been watching all kind of films and I am a bit familiar with Kannada, Telugu and Tamil.

In an old model, the way a film would imprint itself on the public's consciousness is to get a theatrical run. But now there are more documentaries and more films in general being released than ever before. There are weeks when the New York Times is reviewing 15 films, so it's harder to leave an impression on the public. A lot of these films are seeing their financial future on digital platforms. Because viewers aren't hearing as much about films in theatrical release, I think the festival circuit is going to have increasing importance for the life of a film.

In fact, my earliest films were in Tamil and Telugu and since then I have been acting in all languages.

Atul Kulkarni

Bollywood is a different ballgame. I am quite used to Tamil and Telugu films.

Gautham Menon

I am very happy that all my films are getting positive reports in both Telugu and Tamil.

Vijay Antony

I have done films in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada. I don't find any difference.

Mohanlal

As long as I am acting, I will do only Telugu films. I want to take Telugu films to the world. Everyone should talk about our films.

Mahesh Babu

I suppose it's nice that I've made films that some people have heard of and respect. That's great. And it's certainly helpful in some regards, but they're really tough economic prospects. They always have been, and that's not necessarily getting any better. And not just the films, but it's also been a rough 10 years for that independent film market. And so I have stumbled onto this point in the timeline where the kind of stuff that I'm trying to do is not... it was a lot easier to know what to do with it 20 years ago.

Andrew Bujalski

Tamil is almost like my mother tongue and for quite some time, I had been concentrating on Telugu.

Shamna Kasim

Films have been my only passion in life. I have always been proud of making films and will continue taking pride in all my films. I have never made a movie I have not believed in. However, though I love all my films, one tends to get attached to films that do well. But I do not have any regrets about making films that did not really do well at the box office.

Yash Chopra

Some of the films I've been most happy with have been the films that don't see a lot of traction.

Greig Fraser

I mean I like most of the films that I've seen that I've been in. Those are the kind of films that I like to see. Am I getting better at making choices? Well, I think I might be getting better at reading scripts. Does that make any sense?
