Rakul Preet Singh Says Telugu Films Are No Longer 'Hero-Centric.' Example, Baahubali


The actress feels there has been a change in the Telugu film industry as it is no more patriarchal.
Rakul made her acting debut with the Kannada film "Gilli" in 2009. She subsequently made her Telugu debut with "Keratam", later she has starred in Telugu hits like "Venkatadri Express", "Current Theega", "Rough", "Loukyam", "Kick 2", "Sarrainodu", "Nannaku Prematho", "Dhruva", "Spyder" and "Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru".




Asked if she feels the Telugu film industry is hero-centric, Rakul told IANS: "Don't you think the world is male dominated? I would put it that way and I don't think that it is hero-centric anymore. Times are changing and there are good films. If you look at a 'Baahubali' which was such a big film, the whole thing is about Anushka Shetty's character being so strong."

Rakul then praised actresses Nayanthara, Trisha, Kangana Ranaut, Deepika Padukone and Alia Bhatt for doing some "superb" work.

The 28-year-old said the entire Indian film industry is evolving.
