\r\nTollywood filmmakers overuse of Hindu Gods decreasing interest. The sensation of Karthikeya 2 and Hanu-Man at the national level made Tollywood filmmakers look up to the new beginning. From then on they started using Hindu sentiments and dieties in their films and many feel that this resulted in overuse and in the end movie lovers started losing their interest.\r\nThe latest example being Balakrishna\'s Akhanda2. A top producer says &ldquo;We are clearly going overboard and need to take a break,&rdquo; He adds &ldquo;The depiction of Hindu gods during fight sequences draws whistles in theatres, and that temptation is pushing stars and directors to overstep. But this trend needs to be curtailed.&rdquo;\r\nHe pointed out \"Prabhas appeared in Kannappa, Pawan Kalyan played a godly character in Gopala Gopala, while Jr NTR portrayed Lord Rama as a child artist in Bala Ramayanam. Playing a mythological role once in a while is fine, but almost every other Telugu film today has a god connection. Perhaps it&rsquo;s an attempt to appeal to Hindi-speaking audiences, but that strategy has its own limitations,&rdquo;\r\nPrashanth Varma is coming up with a film Mahankali in which Bhoomi Shetty is playing the role of Goddess Mahakali. In Rajamouli\'s Varanasi, Mahesh Babu is playing the role of Lord Ram. Rishab Shetty is playing the role of Lord Hanuman in Jai Hanuman.\r\nThe producer says &ldquo;Telugu filmmakers are certainly capable of delivering compelling socio-fantasies and there are around five to six films on floors,&rdquo; He concludes &ldquo;But they must explore a wider range of subjects. If every film leans on gods, audience fatigue is inevitable.&rdquo;\r\n

Rajamouli reviews Avatar3, Cameron interested in Varanasi. James Cameron and Rajamouli's bonhomie increased eversince Rajamouli captured the imagination of all with his magnum opus RRR.

It is known that James Cameron's most awaited film Avatar-Fire and Ash is releasing onnn 19 December 2025. Ahead of the film release, Rajamouli reviewed the film.

He interacted with James Cameron and said &ldquo;I would like to thank you because you made me the first person, or probably the only person, amongst 1.45 billion Indians to watch Avatar: Fire and Ash. That feels very special.&rdquo;

He continued &ldquo;Watching Fire and Ash was an absolute pleasure. Hats off to you for creating those complex sequences, visuals and characters. I can go on and on. I was like a child in the theatre watching the Wind Traders, the Ash People, the new characters. Varang was absolutely stunning,&rdquo;

Continuing his review, he said &ldquo;But I thought, for me, after I come back from the theatre, it wouldn&rsquo;t leave my mind. What really got me hooked was Jake&rsquo;s moral dilemma. I thought the first Avatar had it; it was so strong. I thought, can he ever beat it? But I think in this, it is much stronger.&rdquo;

He went on to add &ldquo;Two of the beautiful conflicts in the film were between Miles and Jake, and also, of course, between Neytiri and Varang. In the first film, I clearly hate Miles. But in Fire and Ash, I want to hate him, but I can&rsquo;t. I want to side with him, I want to love him, but I can&rsquo;t. The conversations between Jake and Miles were beautifully written; there was a lot of angst to them.&rdquo;

After this interaction, James Cameon expressed his desire to vist the sets of Rajamouli's upcoming entertainer Varanasi which stars Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra in the lead roles. He said &ldquo;So, I think you're shooting for a while, right, on the new film Varanasi?&rdquo;

He said &ldquo;Okay, plenty of time. Well, tell me when you're doing something fun. I don't know, something with tigers,&rdquo; said Cameron, adding, &ldquo;May I come to your set sometime and watch you create your magic?&rdquo;.

Cameron quipped, &ldquo;Call me when you are shooting something fun&mdash;something with tigers,&rdquo; He also said &ldquo;I&rsquo;m going to come to your set. You can give me a camera, and I&rsquo;ll operate it. I can even give you a few shots like a second unit director,&rdquo;


&nbsp;



Rajamouli said, &ldquo;Sir, you&rsquo;re putting me on the moon. I&rsquo;ll somehow hold you to that promise and bring you to Hyderabad to my film sets. I can&rsquo;t wait.&rdquo;
