Outrage among Tollywood fans over Netflix documentary on Rajamouli
It has drawn severe criticism for Netflix's handling of Telugu language content
Furious fans demand removal of the poorly dubbed version of trailer
Netflix’s latest offering, Modern Masters: SS Rajamouli, directed by Raghav Khanna, has sparked outrage among Tollywood fans. The 74-minute docu-film, intended to celebrate the genius of SS Rajamouli, has instead drawn severe criticism for its handling of the Telugu language content.
The controversy erupted following the release of the English trailer, which left fans questioning the availability of a Telugu version. Netflix eventually released a Telugu trailer, but fans were appalled to find it featured subpar dubbing instead of the original voices of the Telugu-speaking celebrities. Except for James Cameron, all key personalities in the film – including SS Rajamouli, Prabhas, Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Rama Rajamouli, and MM Keeravaani – are native Telugu speakers. The poor quality of the dubbing has left fans outraged, with many expressing their disgust at hearing their favorite stars’ voices replaced by inferior dubs.
Taking to social media, furious Tollywood fans have condemned Netflix, demanding the removal of the poorly dubbed version. They view this as a disrespectful move towards the stars and the Telugu-speaking audience, questioning how the celebrities consented to this presentation.
Produced by Sameer Nair, Deepak Segal, and Anupama Chopra, Modern Masters: SS Rajamouli finds itself under intense scrutiny as the backlash continues to mount.
