In World Cinema, there are many genres and genre specific films but when it comes to Telugu Cinema, we have only two genres, masala comercial film and off-beat cinema.
Whatever we do, we try to mix in all the elements of different genres into our commercial films and hence, they are called mass masala entertainers.
Even though there are few and far commercial films that cater to genre specificity, normally, we see only masala films being made 90% of the time.
That has been changing slightly by emergence of new filmmakers and Trivikram Srinivas, Sukumar are seen as more genre specific makers.
Trivikram Srinivas sticks to family entertainers and Sukumar is more cerebral. They make movies that don't really have mass elements for the sake of it.
SS Rajamouli pointed it out and said, "The day when Trivikram Srinivas and Sukumar kind of more clever directors start making masala commercial films, directors like us will have to pack our bags."
Sukumar is now pushing his Rangasthalam as a mass movie and by the looks of it, the movie caters to commercial audience more.
Well, will SS Rajamouli's words come true? We will know the answer in few hours as Rangasthalam is getting ready to release in few more hours.
