When he said Bollywood can't afford me, he is not speaking about money, he is speaking about his stardom and his essence of the movie. Northern people of India may not understand his inside jokes and local punches which he is comfortable with. That's what he meant.
He never said anything bad, he was addressing the journalist as sir ,so humble, straight forward ,no sugar coating. I think people are getting triggered very easily nowadays because I didn't find anything that he said disrespectful.

Not every actor dies for a chance to act in Bollywood movies. And when he made a decision to not to act in bollywood, its purely his love for telugu movies. Its as simple as that. And people respect him for how humble he is.
He doesn't have to work in bollywood but he didn't need to say bollywood can't afford him. He himself said that his statement may come off as arrogant.
@@fabtins1993 He knows his statement does not sit well with people who believe bollywood is far better than remaining industries, which is clearly not the case. They are getting the recognition they deserve. And now "Indian Cinema" title was not entitled to bollywood itself.
@@pavaniganisetti1803 Any industry will take offence when some actor says that the said industry can't afford him so naturally the statement didn't sit well, prejudice or otherwise. I have seen several southern films as they are watched a lot in north India. And in most of the films I saw there were stupid unrealistic scenes that pass off as hilarious. I liked Bahubali even though that too had some unrealistic scenes. Bollywood comparatively does better in that department. Recently some good movies have come out of southern film industries though. Bollywood isn't remotely the best nor are all bollywood movies good. A lot of them can be crap. Recently bollywood has just become a copy cat of south films and movies like Kabir Singh show declining bollywood standards although few good movies still come out of bollywood like gully boy. But bollywood used to be better than how it is currently about 10 years ago.
I have also watched many Hindi movies and was awe struck for how talented the actors are, and also there were other scenarios where I didn't like their acting. I don't see any problem with him expressing his thoughts on his debut in bollywood. If it doesn't sit well with few, they may stop watching his movies. He has huge fandom who loves him for his acting and also for the person he is.
Too honest. When i watched complete video i came to know that he didnt insult anyone. Just stated what he wanted. Love from audience. And respect from industry. Audience love is available everywhere but the respect from industry is not available in bollywood for south stars thats his point.
He is clear about his choice he wants to make films for all india from Hyderabad itself as there is no need to go to bollywood to make good films nowadays
an actor never reject a good offer for any role, for any language..... Because this will stop the producer to reach him, He can make his dialogue in Telugu, if he is not comfortable, Like Ajay devgan, I really don't know why he say no only, Actor need a good script which can be come from any language.🙏
@@aman-no5te Because he have tremendous fan base and stardom in TS/AP. And if his movie fail or success. These audience will go and watch his upcoming movies. That's why he love Telugu film industry more than anything else. And he said "No" to bollywood many times in past also. And you aware this before Baahubali no body cares about south cinemas in north. Now everything changed. South movies have tremendous market all over India. So why he comes to bollywood leave his fans and his audience? This doesn't make any sense for him. For his fans too...
Afford = not only payment ....he said like love by audience, because bollywood love for hype time like a dialogue of a film popular at any time but after 2 3 moth no one talk about
He's standing up and showcasing the pride of Telugu cinema, please don't steal him away from us. You can hear how much he respects and looks up to Telugu cinema in his answers.
@@113uineo For a change why don't you act different and show... everyone has become critic.. try something different in ur life or job and see. It's easy to comment
@NMA 55 NIDHIN JOBI what do you know about acting? Do you know Prabhas and Allu Arjun are average actors but when dubbed in Hindi you guys thought they are very good. Language matters. Listen to his dialogs and see his sync of body language when you understand the language. You know nothing about acting. Most actors do not go overboard with unnatural over the top expressions and emotions. Mahesh babu is such actor. He does subtle acting in style and with strong impact.
People: Arguing about hindi, telugu films blahs blah Me: Thinking how respectful he is. The way he give respect to the reporters and answered their question was beautiful.
@@Arjun-jt8hl But due to his humbleness you can't justify his endorsement of pan masala... He is doing the same thing which these bollywood people are doing... Promoting cancer... What's the difference??
I'm fed up of how the reporters ask all the South Indian actors whether they would work in Bollywood if given an option but the people in Bollywood will not be asked this question of working in other industries often.
@iam legend jayesh bhai jordar first weekend collection 11cr starring ranver Singh sarkaruvaripataaa first weekend collection starring Mahesh babu 135cr. Who is making big money here? . And its not about the marketing. Its about the movie content and most importantly fans and the audience. Here in South, heros are treated like demigods . And even before bahubali we have many 100cr grosser movies and even now some stars like Mahesh Babu Pawan kalyan etc have 250 cr grossing films by releasing only in Telugu regional language.
My language is Hindi but the questioning is just absurd. Telugu films are Indian Cinema....I don't understand where is the problem? Is Hindi films only Indian Cinema? Would you take Hindi heroines...wtf is this question? Are Bhojpuri films, Keralite films, Punjabi films etc.. not Indian Cinema? Only some trash idiots sitting in Mumbai can decide what is Indian Cinema? What is this stupidity....seriously...

That's true . Bollywood movies stories are now literally poor as compared to south movies . Even from 2010s , bollywood have always made remake of South movies like wanted , singham ... .
There is one movie, a script, And no one can do this role better then him, if it is in any language, Any actor shall not say no.🙏. A director say you are the only person who can fit then🙏

He is telling the reporter as Sir shows his manners, culture and down to earth nature..he is right bollywood can't afford such a great and a wonderful person ❤️😇
I felt his attitude was wrong , like they can't afford me . Imagine if Salman Khan said Telugu industry cant afford me . Think how much backlash he would have. His point is good, staying for your audience ,but saying other audience cant handle him is not right 😅
He is exactly right. Nobody wants to go to Bollywood lol. Infact Bollywood is trying to be more like South Indian films and also copying alot from there. So why would he move to the inferior industry at this point? That's what he is saying. Bollywood was better in the past but not recently. So he feels happy he made the decision to not do hindi films now
Yes Bollywood people should be jailed for the act of plagiarism. They also copied the fights, the action, the invincible physics from the south industry. 🌚😇
What he said is 100%correct. Jhon Abrahqm said he don't need to act in telugu films as he is with enough money and only actors who needs money choose telugu films to act
Yeah of course because the south never offers hindi heroes a lead role,only cast them as side heroes or Villains or special appearances! Sirf Bollywood hi hai jo south ke actors ko lead role deta h. They are not racist like them you see😏. So why wud any north hero go to south for a side role!
HE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT 💯. I don't understand why he is trolled. His statement has been twisted by Indian media. He will never get the The kind of love & Appreciation from Bollywood compare to Telugu one.
Bcs north audience are arrogant and insecure over their hindi cinema dominance and also bcs bwood loves to ruin images of public figures by making controversy of nothing Mahesh is known as one of the most humbke celebs down south ...and one more thing no really knows the meaning of afford.its simply used as means to provide But stupid people think he is talking about remuneration
I think what he meant by AFFORD was in respect to the stardom and fandom he has in his lingual films vs Hindi films. Many people who only follow Hindi films won't even know who he is and that what his mother tongue. And to respect his love for his people, he chose not to engage in the Hindi cinema and entertain people who do know him or are eager to do so. No offence.✌️
If people truly love him, they can watch him in Telugu movie alongwith subtitles or learn Telugu. Who said to become a pan India star he has to do Bollywood movie? He is already a superstar!! ❤️
I am surprised so many people are taking this in a negative way. He literally said his strength is in Telugu films cuz his stardom is unparalleled there. And that going to bollywood would be like starting from the scratch and would waste his time. What's wrong in that. Lmao u guys are too sensitive.
@@rachelgreene8658 arrogant?lol he is just rejecting bwood since 2011. when bollywood can afford him and also bwood is at great phase then and also now he is rejecting bwood he stood by his word what's arrogance in this?
John Abraham also said the same South industry can't afford me... But the use of words is different..... I request all the media to ask bollywood actors about the entry in South industry, I feel bollywood is not superior every industry is equal so there is nothing wrong in his reply........ 🧐🧐
@@Elamado97 alright bollywood makes the most expensive movies , and what are the collections ? an average telugu movie makes an opening of 40 crores and a first week collection of 100 crores . whislt bollywood gets opening of 10 crores and first week collection of 30 crores. who's bigger again ?
I never see his movie... But after that i have huge amount of respect for him.... How humble n sweet he is.. I never saw any artist said SIR to any journalist... ♥️
Actually long back itself clearly he said he wont act in Remake Films then how can he act in Remakewood ??????? We Telugu people always proud of you Sir.... Love you Anna... We need to make bigger films and release all over World.
The problem is that the reporter was asking in Hindi and also kept on telling one thing that he has to do hindi film to go pan india... Both statements were wrong Pushpa is a Pan Indian movie more than Jayeshbhai Zordar.. Not just that in Spiritualism Sadguru is a Pan India guru he doesn't need to speak hindi for that
Major was the first south indian film (telugu) I went to see in theatres.. hindi dubbed one... And i was hella impressed by how good it was. I regret not watching RRR in cinemas now.. anyways Telugu cinema is bigger than bollywood now. So he is right. Bollywood really can't afford him. Bollywood is on a downward spiral right now and its destined to end.
It was not dubbed in Hindi. It was a Bilingual movie (Shot in Telugu and Hindi). Meaning the actors and actresses had to work twice - once for Telugu and the other for Hindi.
Man....these south indian actors are so humble. I always love them. And it's good that you didn't because these bollywood actors don't give respect Unless you are one of them. You chose right man ❤️
I don't know why everyone is only considering the word "afford" only while he said whole length answer addressing everyone there and explained how he felt abt Indian movies and Telugu movies. Do u guys even watch the whole video lol he justified his whole answer in a perfect way and these reporter cut short the whole answer to a single line and tried to throw mud.
The real empowerment for all the languages would be when the movies are not dubbed in Hindi to reach greater audiance. For me movies with original language+subtitles> dubbed movie. The actual flavour is lost when it's dubbed.
Exactly my point. I had facepalm reaction when people ask money heist to be dubbed in Hindi. I understood this when once I tried Japanese anime in English, it was horrible.
If that's the case then South movies would never have been popular in North. Similarly, Marvel films revenue would have dropped by 50% if they are not dubbed
But than some people be bokachoda. They are too lazy to read subtitles and are not used to it , moreover it is quite tough to reach subtitles in cinema that's why dub is preferred. Common sense hai
I speak Hindi but I have watched South movies more than Bollywood movies . I have always been a fan of South movies especially Lucky the racer of Allu Arjun and Son of Satyamurthy is ny favourite
So I see ppl creating ruckus over his statement that bollywood can't afford me which sounded rude in the first place but now watching the video is royal different.. infact He should be appreciated for being clear and honest unlike many stars who prefer their image over their opinion
He said they cannot afford him in Hindi because he is not good in Hindi his very comfortable with his own language ♥️♥️♥️♥️ love him since my childhood mahes babu love you 💙
There will be dubbing artists for him if he is ever planning to take a bollywood project....and his acting skills matters too...unlike Telugu people other industry's audience look forward to acting skills which obviously he lacks.it is his choice anyway.
I dont thibk that he meant and as much i know he must be quite good in hindi as he said in one of interviews his 2nd language in his school was hindi(along with english) when and thats the reason he cannot read and write both telugu and tamil scripts ..bcs he didnt learn them at school Maybe he was in CBSE curriculum He know tamil bcs he lived their from his brith to graduation and he knows telugu bcs its his mither tongue
@@nandanananda7795 He doesn't lack acting skills idiot By all directors of south he has been praised for acting and he has won many awards as best actor
@@vamsid5236 bro they can't afford him means the kind of audience he has south is tremendous where some people worship like God and he can't get that kind of love in Hindi cinema.

He is humble in each and every word he speak.
Mr. Mahesh babu sir truly stands his words pretty well..... We are very proud of our Actor and he is our inspiration..... In every way..... Being Happy Making everyone happy.....
All that Mahesh Babu ❤️ said is completely logical.... It's complete waste of time for a superstar to start making film in another language and place where he doesn't have much fan base . l don't understand why media is blaming him to be arrogant... Big fan of Mahesh Babu ❤️..
Before Bahubali Mahesh Babu got lot of bollywood offers (pure Hindi movies )..He meant that producers can't afford him for Hindi movies as his cost is high ...Pure common sense ...media made mess out of it
Taking 1 small sentence from such lengthy & respectful ans by media & blowing up into something else.. for TRP i suppose.. he's been saying this from long tym, he wants to make Telugu cinema big
He said the same thing since many years, he is a superstar from many years.. Even srk, salman talks about him long back... Media taking this in negative way to create hate... northies troll him unnecessarily
He couldn't be more right, why should he make any Hindi films. These days Bollywood is just remaking South movies and then again when they run out of any original ideas they make a shitty sequel to the same movie.

When South Indian movies are dubbed it loses its essence. When movies are dubbed in Hindi, they completely change the sense of dialogue is delivered and they portray South Indians with comic Hindi accent, that is why South Indians are made fun of because that is how the North portrays them. If you really wish to dub movies why not do it right.
@@iam7389 If you look at bharath ane nenu hindi version ..they gave punjabi and bihar/UP accent to some charcters who are party members ..for what??and also in nennokadine hindin version ek ka dum ..the scenes were cut and important dialogues and also dialogues were wrongly dubbed like he saod in telugu whuch meant " veham ka yahi advantage hai /this is the advantage of hallucination " bcs he was schizophrenic in that movie but the hindi versions show " veham me tujhe advantage milta tha " ....which totally change the meaning like according to hindi version this dialogue implies that he already know he isnt hallucinating but in telugu version the character thought he is hallucinating And also in his movie khaleja which is dubbed as jigar kaleja are dubbed in a such b grade manner and his dialogue delivery was totally ruined in the dubbed version and also they said mumbai instead of hyderabad and they totally ruin the story when they show he was in actually in a village of rajasthan in 2nd half of movies when originally he first goes to rajasthan and rest goes in an amdhra village ...there was no need to change these things ,this make many things confusing in hindi version at lot of places And unless a south movie isnt getting official dubbing release like bahubali or pushpa ...movies dubbing are pathetic
Mahesh is such a respectful, dignified, sensible & responsible Man. The same reflects in his acting, movie stories, he doesn't like any vulgarity.. he follows ethics/culture in movies also.. Most of Bollywood movies are like B-grade or BF kind.. and Dawood and IsI funding them.. Bollywood can't afford me, he means the kind of movies he makes and the dignity he maintains in movies, Bollywood can't afford them 😊

When someone so handsome, so smart is sitting in front of you, you just forgot everything focuses on that person, that is what is happening with Mahesh Babu.❤❤ You can't move your head away from Mahesh Sir.❤ He is so humble, honest and kind. We want his films in Hindi dubbed but we don't want him to solely work in a Hindi film, I have same expectations with Tom Cruise, his films are dubbed in Hindi but he definitely will never want to do a Hindi film as a lead neither it will suit him.
I found all these journalist coaxing him to let his tongue slip a bit n create controversy which they survive on. Hats off to him for walking the tight line wd grace n decency yet strength but never arrogance. North have a thing or 2 to learn from north.
I myself knew when I saw M...mass and don no. 1 in childhood and got to know more movies of actors like ntr, Ravi Teja,Mahesh Babu,ram charan,Vijay in later years that south indian movies will come up with masterpieces soon.The actors involved in this industry must be surely knowing it from their initial career years & experiences over the years.
That remake trend of south Indian films is a recent one and bollywood hasn't always been about remaking south films. Bollywood has given a lot of original, critically acclaimed movies.

For the past 10 or 15 years main stream Bollywood people have made nothing but remakes of South movies, and dumb action masala movies. So why would any south actor would want to work in Bollywood when Bollywood is just making remake of the movie the south actor has already worked in?
Even if he has referred to affordability in some different sense, as in unlike positive, its completely fine and there's nothing wrong in it. Bollywood and the so called mega stars that call themselves the baap of the industry don't encourage actual talent nowadays. They're busy promoting and securing their own stardom and behaving as if they own the industry. On the other side, look at these south Industry people, way humble and down to earth. There's a pretty evident fine line between speaking with confidence and speaking while having insecurities.
First of all he said he won't be doing a straight Hindi film. And most importantly he is the highest paid South Indian Actor and also the richest Actor.One thing is sure that Hindi people are so jealousy and scared that he can start ruling Indian Cinema i mean just look at the comments 😲 people say who is Mahesh Babu and still talk bad about him. Just wait for sometime he is doing a pan India Movie with S S Rajamouli and it will be one of the most costliest movie and then Hindi people will get to know what Mahesh Babu stardom is and his acting. And coming to donations he donates 30% of his remuneration to poor people and he has done more than 2500 FREE HEART OPERATIONS to kids and we die hard fans of SUPERSTAR MAHESH BABU are proud to say he is idol and everything.

what I genuinely feel is that apart from the story social media is also playing a big role in success of non Hindi movies, take something from the movie, try to copy it and make it a trend, and others will do the same in order to be up to date on that social media platform
He maybe blunt and genuine with his thinking and decision but he legit has no sort of attitude problem when he articulates his own concept after being such a mega superstar💫
