Don't see 'Baahubali' as regional film, urges Kabir Khan.

Filmmaker Kabir Khan, who has released the
teaser of his upcoming film "Tubelight", is
delighted with the phenomenon that
"Baahubali" has emerged to be. He says the
film must not be looked at as a regional
project.
"I really feel good whenever any film does
well. We should not see 'Baahubali' as a
regional film. That's the triumph of
'Baahubali'... The team has successfully
combined south and north market, and for
that, hats off to S.S. Rajamouli. I think he
made a brilliant effort," Kabir said here on
Thursday.
"Baahubali 2: The Conclusion", released last
week, has taken the box office by a storm. It
is doing well pan-India, especially since it
has come out in four languages.
Meanwhile, Kabir launched the teaser of
"Tubelight" on Thursday, and gave a sneak
peek into it with to lead actor Salman Khan's
fans.
He said Salman plays a "different and
challenging kind of role" in the movie, the
story of which is based on the Hollywood
film "Little Boy".
"Salman has just pushed the boundaries in
terms of craft and acting in this film," Kabir
said.
The actor's brother Sohail is also seen with
Salman in posters, and the director reveals
he is doing an important role in the film.
Talking about the chemistry of both the
brothers, Kabir said: "They both are brothers
and obviously they love each other a lot, so it
was easy for me. As a director, if I have to
establish that there is love between two
brothers, then I get to see that very easily
between Sohail and Salman because of their
body language and their reactions with
each other. I really enjoyed working with
both of them."
"Tubelight" will release worldwide on June
23.

I like Kabir Khan. And I appreciate what he's saying here, and he's doing it to give the utmost credit to Baahubali.

But see, the problem is that films coming from industries other than Hindi Film Industry are called Regional Films by National Media, and HIndi/Bollywood as 'India' and never Regional.

This is due to various policies, implementation and promotions.
