The rise of Telugu films, however, hasn't been powered by star power alone. It is being driven by films transcending geographical boundaries. Small or big budgets, the story has been the same-audiences worldwide have rewarded a good tale.
"What is happening now can be described as a golden period for Telugu movies," said a representative of Telugu film distribution company worldwide who left a big star's movie to pick the rights of a small-budget film.
