== Can we now say Baahubali is a Telugu movie only? ==

Last year, there was a big hue and cry in wikipedia discussion when Baahublai was listed as a Tamil movie (to be specific Kollywood industry) although the production house is based in Hyderabad and the director-hero are popular only with Telugu audience (the main actresses are known in both Telugu and Tamil movie industries, however). The film was made in Tamil too and hence Baahubali was given a shared status of Tamil and Telugu by moderators. But as many pointed out this idea of just making a movie in a language does not necessarily mean the movie belongs to that specific movie industry. One must take into account various other factors like - production house location, director, actor etc. The moderators who are usually ignorant of the nuances of differences about Indian movie industries, stick to some notions that may be sensible elsewhere, but not in India where a director-actor association with a specific movie industry is pretty strong. During the last year's discussion, one of the commentators who insisted on Baahubali being only a Telugu film (or to be specific Tollywood industry), predicted that Baahubali would not be nominated for any award in Tamil. Lo and behold, his/her prediction came true: Baahubali has not been represented at all in Tamil Filmfare nomination for 2016. Of course the argument would be given that perhaps Baahubali was not worth for any award in Tamil movie industry - but I think a better argument is they didn't even consider it to be a Tamil film to begin with. So if Filmfare, which is officially the "Oscars" for India, along with most of the Indian audience who have good knowledge of Indian movie industry rightfully treat Baahubali as only Telugu film, why do moderators here think differently? I am surprised that someone can be a moderator on wikipedia without much understanding of the field upon which they are moderating. <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/69.147.191.11|69.147.191.11]] ([[User talk:69.147.191.11|talk]]) 13:37, 13 June 2016 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Consensus has already been reached on this issue, and the decision was arrived at by regular editors, not by "moderators". You can thank the dishonest editors who resorted to antics like [[WP:SOCKPUPPETRY|sockpuppetry]] for polluting the conversation with their petulant behavior. Nowhere else but in Indian cinema articles do we find this drive to attribute a film to an ''ethnic industry'' rather than uncontroversially indicating the languages the film was recorded in. Tollywood is [[Baahubali: The Beginning#Production|clearly indicated]] in the main article. This list article is focused on the highest grossing films of India organized by language, not by ethnic film industry.

* Agreed. It was a [[Talk:List_of_highest-grossing_Indian_films/Archive_6#RfC:_How_should_we_classify_Baahubali|many month long lengthy discussion]] with every possible conceivable angle discussed and nothing new here has been presented. Everyone else has moved on as frankly no one should care. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 19:44, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

== Merger proposal ==

I propose that [[List of highest-grossing Indian films in overseas markets]] be merged into [[List of highest-grossing Indian films]]. We don't need a separate page just for overseas figures. - [[User:Managerarc|<font face="serif"><span style="color:dark blue;text-grey 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em"><font size="2">Managerarc</font></span></font>]]™[[User talk:Managerarc|<span style="color:green">^{<small> talk</small>}</span>]] 20:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

: {{u|Managerarc}} I don't think we need to keep a unique tally of grosses domestically vs. grosses internationally. Maybe discussing whether the overseas article should be deleted is in order. [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb|talk]]) 15:53, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

:Merging is appropriate. A totally unnecessary list. See the [[List of highest-grossing films]] (FL), gross when adjusted for inflation, films by year, franchise films are all listed in that single page. Likewise, the [[List of highest-grossing Indian films in overseas markets]] is not an independent topic, and [[List of highest-grossing Indian films]] shows worldwide gross, not the domestic. --[[User:Charles Turing|Charles Turing]] ([[User talk:Charles Turing|talk]]) 11:34, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

== Mungaru Male gross ==

In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_highest-grossing_Indian_films&diff=730274919&oldid=730253098 this edit] I reverted {{u|Honor bee}}'s resubmission of a 75 crore total for Mungaru Male. Filmibeat is not considered a reliable source by [[WP:ICTF]]. Mybangalore.com looks like a blog to me, and thus would be unsuitable per [[WP:UGC]]. The final reference, [http://www.dnaindia.com/entertainment/report-ganesh-bal-the-outsider-on-the-inside-1678970 dnaindia.com], attributes the information to the film's lead actor, which would mean that we're using [[WP:PRIMARY|a primary source]] for controversial information. A primary source would absolutely have a reason to fudge the financial numbers of a film, for instance he might inflate it to make it more of an attractive spectacle for potential viewers, or he might deflate it to reduce the film's entertainment tax liability, or an actor might inflate it to make himself more marketable as an actor. There are all sorts of reasons why it is a bad idea to use a primary source for controversial data. Oh, and the information was also previously submitted by a [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_highest-grossing_Indian_films&diff=726335703&oldid=726298461 disruptive troll] who is not welcome to edit at Wikipedia, which should raise some questions about motive and appropriateness of the submission.

== Regarding Kabali collections ==

The producer uttered some words in the media about the Kabali collections as Rs 250 crores in Day 1, which is highly impossible according to number of screens, occupancy rate and ticket rates. It seems to be a marketing gimmick to attract more people to the cinema halls. The reference given for the Kabali collections http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/rajinikanths-kabali-smashes-all-box-office-records-earns-rs-250-crore-in-india-on-first-day/articleshow/53354457.cms itself contradicts in another reference by showing Day 1 collection as over 40 crores http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/rajinikanths-kabali-smashes-all-box-office-records-collects-over-rs-40-crore/articleshow/53347794.cms. So, please update the Kabali collections according to a consistent reference source like as given in http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/kabali-rajinikanth-second-day-box-office-collection-sultan-vedalam-review/1/722537.html <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/27.49.83.78|27.49.83.78]] ([[User talk:27.49.83.78|talk]]) 07:50, 24 July 2016 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
