I am currently watching a South Indian movie called 'run Raja run' while watching 'outlander' on Netflix because I need some background noise and there was some other Hindi movie playing earlier which had only mildly caught my attention but now I find myself fully engrossed in the ridiculousness of this Telugu movie because it has so many wtf moment.
The female lead falls in love with her kidnapper.
The male lead makes jokes about impregnating her to her father.
There are some obligatory gravity defying action scenes.
The comedy sequences have a fat friend who is the big butt of all jokes.
Telugu film world is notorious for its patriarchal and utterly female hating outlook with the worst jokes made on their female leads on music launch events for their movies and their sense of understanding and archaic beliefs are broadcasted in full Dolby digital in their movies and it's unbelievable how callously they disseminate their moth eaten axioms and why on earth such intelligent actresses actually acquiesce to such roles and play the objective fiddle? Well, money and fame is a motivation I know but it's sad that no one would come forward, someone who has faced their horrors first hand and speak about it because these are exactly the kind of stories and facts that boost and encourage movements that specifically target such atrocities.
Sighs.
I have digressed, haven't I?
