Is Bollywood Racist & Ignorant? | Shahrukh Khan vs Ram Charan Incident

[@harshilraghavendra]

So, many Indians are upset about the fact that Hollywood uses all kind of stereotypes about india in its shows and movies. But the unfortunate part is that, we Indians are also making same type of stereotypical content when it comes to other states.

2 Sates and Rocky and Rani were far better representations of ethnic characters. A bengali woman does nothing from a different planet to identify herself as a bengali.

Joking within your friends circle in your living room is one thing and making the same joke on your “friend “ at someone else’s party, on the stage, in front of 1000s of people and cameras that will reach millions, is totally another.

Even in tamil nadu, people are a bit racist towards north indians- and they call the north indian as "vadakkans" ("northies").. there are "stereotypes" - such as "northies" being portrayed "chewing paan" etc. this is probably ingrained for many years now... and it would take a few more years to change the perspective.. i must confess, having been living overseas for over 7 years now- sometimes our own people are more racist than even foreigners.. i once had an encounter with a girl from delhi who told me "you people have an indian passport right- then why are you not learning our national language.."- not even realising that language is a sensitive issue for "us people".. every indian who speaks a different language other than hindi- has a linguistic identity as well as a national identity.. it does hurt when people from national capital say such things..

Once I read the comment in which South Indian actors are called as Idli sellers, I was like what the hell yaar, South India is much beyond these stereotypes, despite being from UP, I always rooted for South India, agar South wale itne hi inferior hain to kyun 90s or 2000s mein Priyadarshan or RGV se lekar Sandeep Vanga tak Bollywood par South ke directors dominate karte rahe, kyun aaj ke samay mein North ka koi director blockbuster nahi de paa raha hai or aaj kal ki generation South directors ke zayada naam jante hain. Bollywood people are very very arrogant(because their films have wider reach) and ignorant(the way they portray various cultures) South has great actors from Mohanlal to Kamal Hassan who are living schools of acting. I am tired of these stereotypes towards Southies and North East people also. When I heard about the racism with your Keralite friends so I must say If I make a movie related to Kerala(which is my dream to make) so I would like to present the Malayali culture atleast in an authentic way, I do not like the way people think about Southies, I want to visit South Indian states, I try to tell my mother that whole South is not same but there are 5 states but I can't blame her as it has been a moulded mindset of the Northies about South people. I am fond of Malayalam films and music so my cousin said that get her married to a man named Venkatesh (this name is not even Malayali I feel), and my mother says it's tough for us to get you married to a Southie as "tumhari shaadi mein sabko idli dosa khaana hoga"(shaadiyon ka alag menu hota hai).

Most South Indians feel disconnected from North India. Unfortunately, stereotypes exist for all castes and races. For instance, Bengalis are often termed as practitioners of black magic, while Biharis are stereotyped as uneducated laborers, and so on. The make-up artist's intentions were to create controversy, which she succeeded in doing. If Ram Charan had any issue with it, they could have personally resolved it. Furthermore, the dialogue he recited on stage was from one of his past movies. Chennai Express is hilarious and Lungi dance is equally loved in South and North. We're becoming too sensitive and easily offended.

In reality, intentions and outcomes have nothing to do with each other! You can cause the worst damage with the best of intentions! Intentions aren't enough.

First of all it was a dialogue from a movie and it was said in jest. The only person who is allowed to take offence is Ram Charan himself (who has said nothing on this publicly). His make up artist was probably just looking for her 15mins of fame. Also if he was really called "idli", I really want to understand why would anyone take offence on called by something that is a significant part of their culture. Rohit Sharma is constantly called Vada Pav, he doesn't take offence. The whole of "South India" calls all the people from other states as "Northies", we don't take offence even when we are not from North India. Why as a South Indian person, you will get offended if someone calls you "idli or dosa", shouldn't yoi be proud of your food? I am a Bengali who has been brought up in Jharkhand, I am called a Northie in the South state that I work in. Neither would I ever get offended by being called "macher jhol" nor by "litti chokha".

There's racism against South/East Indians when it comes to language/complexion which can't be denied. You have comedy shows in Pakistan & India showing Bengalis & South Indians with dark complexion makeups which is problematic.
