Most of us dont know the names of southern stars

So it is applicable vice versa

He must have heard aamir khan in the news but he just doesnt care enough to remember some star whose movies he doesnt watch

And most Indian in offline world dont give a damn about oscars anyway

This is blunt truth and reality 😆 all this stars amitabh , srk , sallu, ak etc. are stars in hindi speaking region or where people understand hindi well. In south they are having their own industry own star. kerala , karnataka, tamil, andhra have their own star own movie world. Just like we hardly knew about rajnikanth but in tamil industry he is god, in south he is more than these hindi movie stars. His one movie generate 150 crore in a small territory.

So all these star worship as projected is not the reality in all over india. Just hype, pr, media etc. Regarding oscar they just promote their movie , but are they oscar worthy , no . just like some movies jeans, akalavya etc.

The film made on a budget of Rs. 132 crore raked in the moolah big time in the domestic and international market. According to market estimates, the film grossed a gargantuan Rs. 375 crore. Sun TV network's net profit rose 48 per cent to Rs. 225 crore in the third quarter of 2010-11 thanks to the film Robot.

The film was released on 1400 screens in Tamil Nadu and across 2400 screens globally. It has grossed Rs. 117 crore at the box office in its first week, according to Ajay Vidyasagar, COO, Sun TV Network. It was also the top 'fastest rising' search query, a few days prior to the release of the film. Eros Entertainment [in association with Ayngaran International] was originally supposed to produce the film but backed out at the last moment because of the global economic recession.

I don't know about people from Tamil Nadu but the people in Hyderabad definitely watch bollywood movies. The Hindi movies there are as popular as regional movies if not more popular.

Hyderabad have mix of language where some use hindi , urdu etc. the demographic profile is little bit different . But i think they were not as popular as like cheeranjeevi , nagarjurna, NTR junior and what ever star movies. Normally in every metro there is a small audience for hindi movie, due to migratory or multiplex movie halls.
