displayed its penchant for varied content,
but has also established its supremacy in
more ways than one! South has clearly taken
over Bollywood in 2017 and there are so
many instances to prove that. While
Baahubali: The Conclusion is primarily the
reason for South's grand success, IMDb's
Top Indian movies of 2017 makes us believe
there are other films down south to savour
as well. In a surprising turn of events,
Vikram Vedha dethroned Baahubali to
become the number one film on the list. The
position is well deserved so! Although
Baahubali was a grander and bigger film,
cop gangsta film, Vikram Vedha starring
Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi was the
better film! The movie was hugely praised
for its gripping plot, unexpected twists and
lead duo's crackling chemistry. Based n the
famous folklore of Vikram and Bethaal, the
movie garnered much acclaim form fans and
critics. Also Read: Vikram Vedha movie

As for Baahubali, the film rocked on all
fronts Ever since its release, the film has
been flooded with positive reviews and let's

crore club. SS Rajamouli was lauded for his
grand concept. Prabhas went on to become
a worldwide sensation.
Vikram Vedha won over fans for its
compelling story, Baahubali 2 won them for
its grandeur concept and then there was
Arjun Reddy that won over admirers for its
sheer unconventionality. Arjun Reddy's bold
portrayal of a self destructive medical
student made everyone sit up. The film had
its share of controversies for its
outspokenness but the movie was talked
about nonetheless.

Thalapathy Vijay's Mersal, another
blockbuster of this year that starred the
