* '''Support''' Tamil films like Enthiran/Robo, I, Indian, Singham, Shivaji ... were shot simultaneously in both Tamil and Telugu but, being considered as Tamil films. In all Telugu versions of the above films, no where you will find letters in Tamil but you will find them in Telugu only. Some portions of these movies are re-shoot to suit Telugu audience. Similarly, Bahubali - The Beginning is a Telugu film only and some portions are re-shoot to suit Tamil audience. If we add the gross earnings from all the versions including dubbed languages, how can we give a particular film a Tamil only or Telugu only film. Either we need to include a single language from where it has originated like Bahubali from Telugu language or include all the languages in which the movie was released including dubbed languages [http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jul/12/baahubali-the-beginning-review-fantastic-bang-for-your-buck-in-most-expensive-'indian-movie-ever-made The Guardian].

* '''Support''' Certainly it is a telugu movie and not telugu and tamil. The movie is shot primarily by telugu and for global audience. Due to the market similarities, and for revenue making purposes some shots were shot twice while rest is dubbed. This is a common practice and even tamil films are shot twice for lip sync purposes or add specific scenes with telugu or the target market actros to make it more marketable. For example, I or Robo have added mixed tracks and that doesnt mean they are telugu films. [[User:Srikrishnak|srikrishnak]] ([[User talk:Srikrishnak|talk]]) 07:20, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

* '''Support''' It is primarily a Telugu movie and shot with few scenes in tamil that doesn't mean it is a tamil movie. Here bilingualism is not the issue. '''while mentioning in the grossing list you should consider production and from which language the film originated not bilingualism.''' '''I have 4 instances to classify it as a Telugu movie and remove from the tamil list. The production is from a Telugu production house and not even single from tamil is involved in it. The story, script, direction, music, cinematography etc... almost entire crew is from Telugu film industry including cast. If we look at the release almost 75% released in Telugu version and (Hindi dubbed version(from Telugu)) and the rest is from others. In the collections almost 80% is from Telugu and Hindi dubbed version. Also only some scenes were shot in tamil for tamil audience and the rest is dubbed in Tamil.'''

But to classify it as a tamil film they have only one instance ie. stating it as a bilingual film which is actually not as Tamil version has some dubbed scenes.

'''For all those who are mentioning baahubali as a bilingual i'm asking is the story, script and direction is from both telugu and tamil directors? not at all It's only from Telugu director and writer alone. Is the production house is from tamil? If you check the gross collections then look how much tamil version has collected nearly 15%. Then why are you including the movie in tamil list by adding other version collections 80% into it although it is not primarily a tamil movie. simply don't state bilingual as a reason.'''

In the gross box office list, will you look at the language or the production and collections?

In Hollywood if an English movie is also shot in French it is regarded as an hollywood movie not french movie. In the collections it will be listed in english list not in the french list similarly is the case of baahubali it should be included only in telugu list not in tamil. So remove it from tamil list.

* ''[[Baahubali: The Beginning]]'' was shot in both the Tamil and Telugu languages and then dubbed in various other languages. There is no disputing that amongst the sources. Rather than trying to figure out how much of a film constitutes a Tamil/Telugu (or Hindi or Punjabi)-"industry" film (based on actors/directors/producers/location shot), since it was shot in both Tamil and Telugu originally (and then dubbed elsewhere) it should be listed as both Tamil and Telugu language film. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 11:44, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

'''Comment'''

I don't know what to say. But, as per the trade is concerned, the Tamil version is lacking behind when compared to the remaining two major releases (Telugu and Hindi). If you want me to classify which language ''Baahubali'' belongs to, i would opt for a Telugu-Tamil bilingual. Because, the film's director [[S. S. Rajamouli]] told [[Indo-Asian News Service|IANS]] {{mdash}} {{xt|Given the budget of the film, it’s impossible to recover the cost involved if we release in one language. '''Right from the start, the plan was to make it as a Tamil-Telugu bilingual.''' Hence, we cast actors who are popular in both the industries.}} Here is the [http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/regional/baahubali-is-tribute-to-indian-epic-mahabharat-filmmaker-s-s-rajamouli/ reference] for the same.

When the director himself admits that ''Baahubali'' is a bilingual, i think that should be valued more than anything else. And, for all those who are concerned that Telugu cinema isn't getting its due recognition, i want to cite the case of ''[[Eega]]''. That film, also a bilingual directed by Rajamouli, received acclaim mostly for its Telugu version. National Film Awards, Filmfare Awards South and all notable awards were received by the Telugu version only. In the case of ''Baahubali'', Telugu cinema is being praised by the International media and fortunately, the same can be placed in the article and summarised in the lead provided the content is written neutrally.

So, i suggest this option {{mdash}} Specify ''Baahubali'' as an Indian bilingual simultaneously shot in Telugu and Tamil. Next, specify in the poroduction section that Rajamouli planned it as a bilingual only to recover the cost involved which he found impossible if released in only one language. For all who are concerned for Telugu cinema recognition, please write the content from International magazines in a neutral way in the "Legacy" section. As per [[WP:LEAD]] the same would be summarised in the lead section where we can see a statement similar to "Due to the success of ''Baahubali'', Telugu film industry was noted and praised by International magazines such as Forbes and The Guardian". Any one who does or does not support this may explain their arguments below. [[User:Pavanjandhyala|Pavanjandhyala]] ([[User talk:Pavanjandhyala|talk]]) 08:46, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

:: You clearly don't have objective criteria here. What do you mean that by "the Tamil version is lacking"? We aren't removing it from the Tamil language just because you personally don't think it was the best version, that's a nonsensical way to categorize things. And it's not about whether the Tamil industry "deserves" or doesn't recognition, it's about a single film and what's the best way to classify the films on this page (I'm starting to learn towards a delete all the subtables and just list films approach). And if you care about more about praising Telugu cinema than anything else, [[WP:RGW|you're here for the wrong reasons]].

:::I appreciate Pavanjandhyala presenting reliable sources to qualify their statements, and they are certainly right in re-asserting that the film is bilingual, but I too share your sentiment regarding the mindset that a certain industry 'deserves praise'. This page is not for 'praising' a certain 'industry'. This isn't the scope of the page. This page has absolutely nothing to do with a film's industry.

::::If that is the case, then here is my explanation. ''Baahubali'' is a bilingual simultaneously shot in Telugu & Tamil and dubbed into Hindi in order to recover the making costs which is confirmed by its director in an interaction to IANS. There is no need to project it as only a Telugu film for the acclaim Telugu version has received because that shall not change just because the film is a bilingual. So i suggest that the film (includes both the parts) be mentioned as a bilingual one in the lead and mention in the Production section that this film was made as a bilingual to recover the making costs.

No, that's not a solution as it entirely ignores the other language it was made in. Further, arguing about the ''reason'' a film was made in various language (again without providing sources) as a justification for how it should be categorized is again [[WP:OR|original research]] as if certain reasons (budget, financing, marketing) are good while others are not. The film was made in two languages. We should not be coming back here when the next film make in two languages (or three) [made, not dubbed that seems clear] to debate about what reasons it was made in those various languages, whether one language makes it "more" acclaimed than another or "more" amazing or whatever that accomplishes nothing here in terms of consistency and is just people here picking and choosing based on their personal interests. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 09:39, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

With this, i can prove that ''Baahubali'' is a bilingual film. Coming to the acclaim problem, many websites such as Forbes and all mentioned the Telugu version of ''Baahubali'' in particular. This and the box office success of the film "as a whole" (i mean together in all languages) made a few quote that ''Baahubali'' is only a Telugu film.

If Bahubali is included in the list of highest grossing Tamil movies list, then why wasn't Eega movie included in Tamil list as it was also produced in Tamil along with Telugu version simultaneously? Because it is not in the top of the list? And why was [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Award_for_Best_Feature_Film_in_Telugu Eega ] movie got National Award for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Award_for_Best_Feature_Film_in_Telugu Best Feature Film in Telugu] only even though it was produced simultaneously in Tamil and the content of both the movies are same? It is because Indian film awards are given only for the language in which the movie is originally made. Since Eega was not an original Tamil movie, it didn't get any award in Tamil language category. Same is the case with Bahubali. It's a original Telugu movie and when it receives any awards, it will receive the awards only in the category of Telugu language and not for Tamil language.

==== Section break ====

Let me put a small break here. The point is Wikipedia categorizes Indian films by ''language'' not by so-called industry. Evidence can be seen by [[:Category:Indian films by language]]. Now, they could be misinterpreted as the same except we have '''[[English-language Indian films]]'''. The basis for inclusion there is the (primary) language in which the film was shot. There is no English-language Indian film "industry" place/populace whatever that would let us classify other films as in or out of this category other than by simple language. For the same reason, we should be classifying Baahubali as both Tamil and Telugu because it was shot in those language rather than using some personal opinions from editors as to whether a film has "sufficient" amounts of a particular film industry to be classified under that industry. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 23:08, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

It's completely biased editing on part of the administrator Ricky81682|Ricky81682], who is biased to make Bahubali to give Tamil color. Bahubali was maintained as Telugu movie until the gross collections of Bahubali didn't cross the gross collections of highest grossing Tamil movie "Enthiran". When Bahubali grossed more than Enthiran, they made it as both Telugu and Tamil movie. Why no explanations were given for "Eega/Naan Ee" movie, for which I have given lot of explanation above? When "Eega/Naan Ee" was produced simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil but considered Telugu only movie then how come Bahubali will be considered both Telugu and Tamil movie? <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Bhuvannalla|Bhuvannalla]] ([[User talk:Bhuvannalla|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Bhuvannalla|contribs]]) 10:52, 4 August 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

: Please don't [[WP:NPA|attack other editors]]. Has Eega been brought up before? If you can provide a source about Eega, put it in a separate section and we'll list it on both. I don't recall it being listed on the Tamil film list when it was merged here. At to the National Film Award, that is determined by the [[Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (India)]], correct? Does it classify films or are films categorized there and nominated based on the producers submitted it there? I'm just trying to flesh out your rationale for using that as a basis for categorizing films. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 17:59, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

I am sorry to attack personally. For awards, the producer has to submit an entry for the movie. Is it possible for Bahubali to be submitted as an entry for Tamil version. It is not possible. Because "Dubbed/revised/copied version of a film" is out rightly rejected by the awards Jury [http://www.dff.nic.in/writereaddata/62nd%20NFA%20Final%20Regulations%20Approved.pdf] as Tamil version of Bahubali is copied version Telugu Bahubali and Tamil version is not in it's original form. Same has happened with "Eaga/Naan Ee". Producers know that if they submit the Tamil version, it will be out rightly rejected. Eega was eligible for National awards only in Telugu version and not in Tamil version. Same is the case with Bahubali. It is eligible for National awards only in Telugu version. If National awards jury is considering it as a Telugu only movie then how Wikipedia will consider it as both Telugu and Tamil movie. Please remove Bahubali from Tamil list. Otherwise, it will misguide people. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Bhuvannalla|Bhuvannalla]] ([[User talk:Bhuvannalla|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Bhuvannalla|contribs]]) 04:02, 5 August 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

: You're speculating here. Where is this "Tamil version would have been rejected" coming from? You don't have proof of any of this. Is this the same as the "the Tamil version was lacking" argument I've heard before? Ok, the point is it was the producers' choice to list it under Telugu and not Tamil (I doubt they could submit it in two categories) and it was ''not'' like some government agency's choice which would give us some more objective criteria to work off. That's my point. As to Eega again, no one has brought it up before (I don't recall it listed when I merged the separate Tamil article over here) and I mentioned it in the [[#Eega]] section below. I'm assuming you'll support including that in the Tamil section to be consistent. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 06:06, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

There's two separate numbers listed for [[Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja]]: [http://web.archive.org/web/20140201184736/http://movies.ndtv.com/regional/pazhassi-raja-to-be-shown-at-tokyo-film-festival-52284] alleging 20 crore and [http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/regional/news-interviews/Hariharan-MT-Vasudevan-prepare-for-Randamoozham/articleshow/9807050.cms?referral=PM] alleging 49 crore in an off-hand comment. Rather than the note, we should look into it with more detail. It seems like the Times piece may not be reliable for ''this'' citation since that result would make it the third-highest film, something that nothing else seems to agree with. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 10:13, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

:'The Times piece may not be reliable for ''this'' citation since that result would make it the third-highest film, something that nothing else seems to agree with.' That's exactly why I put the gross as 20 cr. because that would also support this article [http://www.mathrubhumi.com/movies/malayalam/423355/] which states that Drishyam beat Twenty:20 to become the highest grossing Malayalam film. But if the gross is true, the film would be a 'flop' (27 cr. budget, 20 cr. gross) rather than a 'blockbuster' [http://www.sify.com/movies/boxoffice.php?id=14922085&cid=14625530]. It surely needs a discussion, but as a big grosser, I thought it must feature in the list. [[User:Josephjames.me|Josephjames.me]] ([[User talk:Josephjames.me|talk]]) 12:42, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

== Bahubali should be included in Telugu movies list only ==

{{collapse top|We don't need another discussion section yet again. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 18:13, 4 August 2015 (UTC)}}

Bahubali is a Telugu movie and some portions of the movie are re-shoot to suit the Tamil audience. How can we list it in Highest Grossing Tamil movies list? If you take the case of Enthiran/Robo, I, Shivaji, etc., lot of portions of the movies are re-shoot to suit Telugu audience. Do we need to include those movies in the list of Highest grossing Telugu movies? These movies are not straight away dubbed versions(Telugu) of original movies(Tamil) but modified to suit Telugu audience. Same is the case with Bahubali. Bahubali is originally a Telugu movie and some portions are re-shoot for Tamil audience. Please remove "Bahubali" from Tamil movies list.

Otherwise, if we show total gross earnings from all languages(including dubbed languages), how can we show them separately as Tamil, Telugu, Hindi or Malayalam movies? If that is the case, please include all the languages in which the movie was released originally including dubbed languages.

If Bahubali is included in the list of highest grossing Tamil movies list, then why wasn't Eega movie included in Tamil list as it was also produced in Tamil along with Telugu version simultaneously? Because it is not in the top of the list? Everyone wants to take credit if we are successful. And why was [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Award_for_Best_Feature_Film_in_Telugu Eega ] movie got National Award for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Award_for_Best_Feature_Film_in_Telugu Best Feature Film in Telugu] only even though it is produced simultaneously in Tamil also and content of both the movies are same? So, it is better to include Bahubali only in the Telugu list. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Bhuvannalla|Bhuvannalla]] ([[User talk:Bhuvannalla|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Bhuvannalla|contribs]]) 03:28, 3 August 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Eega ==

As discussed above, the film ''[[Eega]]'' was produced in both Tamil and Teleugu was is classified as bilingual [http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/regional/tamil/news-interviews/Audience-likes-out-of-the-box-subjects-S-S-Rajamouli/articleshow/14467554.cms?referral=PM here]. Any objections to including it on the Tamil chart? I'd suggest we drop Thuppakki so teh chart is limited to a top ten but that's a separate concern. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 18:32, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

: {{ping|Rakesh bg}} Where did you get this text from? Was that an old separate article that got merged here? It'll just make it more accurate if I put that in the edit summary for copyright reasons. I don't think that Indiaglitz (for [[Mungaru Male]] and for one of the sources for [[Maanikya]]) would qualify as a reliable sources but it shouldn't just be me here so let's wait on at least one more person to comment here. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 06:22, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

:: The Hindu [http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/stage-set-for-mungaru-male-sequel/article6630772.ece here] confirms 50 crore for Mungaru Male and that it is the highest Kannada box office collection. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 06:24, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

== ''[[Pazhassi Raja (2009 film)|Pazhassi Raja]]'' ==

As i am from kerala and a regular movie analyst the 2009 movie [[Pazhassi Raja (2009 film)|Pazhassi Raja]] made 49 crores as shown in Times Of India. it was then a record and all media where buzzing about the film collections. 100% sure that the movie grossed 49 crores not 20..

Kindly update the collections
