69. Question 1
In the 1970s, a magazine published an article raising a doubt over the crowd-pulling
capacity of senior actors considering the rise of new stars.
This irked a certain senior actor who immediately shot a movie X with himself in the
lead roles. He completed X's shooting within 2 months and released it against another
film Y to prove his hold on box office.
Y was an ensemble of all the new-age stars of that generation and was an adaptation of
the same epic as X.
The result was that X went on to become a huge blockbuster whereas Y fared mediocre
at box office. X is often listed as one of the greatest films made in Tollywood.
Identify X and Y.
71. Question 2
2014 was said to be the lowest point of X's career where at a time it went stagnant.
Added to this professional damage, X was also affected personally at the same time. This
personal damage and a previous tragic incident which happened led X to incorporate a
certain thing in X’s movies from then till present. X’s family member, who is also an
actor, started incorporating this in his movies too. Recently X was invited for a
conference where a new initiative was launched to spread importance on golden hour
treatment.

72. Answer
X - Jr. NTR
At the start of his movies he speaks
about the importance of traffic safety
as a disclaimer and then the movie
begins.
73. Question 3
The co-producer of this recent film said that, nearly 70% of the story is based on the
happenings of his life. His story had a happy ending; he married the woman of his
dreams which was not the case in the movie. A lot of his experiences have gone into the
story, and the rest are dramatized. A chunk of dramatization was in the antagonist's
part.
For creating the required environment, the film was shot in a village of Andhra Pradesh,
and an earthy colour palette was chosen for the visuals.
ID the film and what happened to hero and heroine at the end of the movie?
75. Question 4
This award winning Tollywood movie X, released in the 1980s and lead by actress
Vijayashanti, takes after a certain unforgettable scene from Indian mythology. The
humiliation faced by this person in the epic is reflected in the movie as well, with the
film character facing a similar situation, albeit without the miracle that saved the
character in the old tale.
Quite fittingly, the lyricist of the movie wrote a song including references to the epic,
comparing the sorrow of the two characters.
ID X and the song.
77. Question 5
This director tried something different in the movie X, where he introduced a few
concepts that were unique to the Telugu audience.
This is seen in X in the form of a living entity that is present at different times in the
movie. We once see it near some helicopter blades, and one time on a glass door. It is also
present in other forms.
It is used to illustrate a certain theory, that is a favorite of the villain, and the hero, who
uses said theory to explain how he defeated the villain.
What are we talking about? Also explain how the hero uses this entity to defeat the
villain.
78. Answer
Butterfly effect (Chaos theory also works)
He uses a painting of a butterfly to spy on the villain’s password and then steal his
money.
X - Nannaku Prematho
79. Question 6
Towards the end of the last decade, X dropped a poster from the movie about the teaser
official release date. In this poster he was seen in a certain look which gathered
countless compliments and hype for his upcoming film. At the same time, it even
received flak from netizens that X was copying Y’s style from Y’s movie which was
released a couple of months before this poster was released. Ironically, in both the
movies, X and Y were seen in this look in a similar setting.
ID the look.
80. Answer

the time was questioned on the similarities between that movie poster and a French
film’s poster. Irritated after being asked this question many times during various
interviews X stated that it was not them who had copied it rather it had been copied.
Moreover, X also said that, Y, one of the biggest hits of his life was copied into a movie
which later went on to win an Oscar Eight years later.
It is also said that X had to practice for a few days for a single scene in Y as it was
something X was usually good at but had to act like a novice. The plot of both the movies
are somewhat similar which makes this claim understandable.
ID X, Y and the movie which was said to be inspired by Y.
86. Answer

Y- Swati Mutyam
Kamal Haasan’s
allegation that Forrest
Gump was based on Swati
Mutyam.
87. Question 10
The controversy that folk songs are plagiarized in movies is currently trending in the
industry. This case actually brought up even more cases of such plagiarism into popular
songs which never would have come into light.
One such case is with X which is a 40-year-old song which was actually featured in a
1986 movie. This song X was actually used in a very famous director’s blockbuster film Y.
Back in 1986 this song was written during the famous Srikakulam armed struggle four
decades prior and had been misused to portray an obscene duet in the film. The
protestors said that the song was used without the permission of the writer and that the
depiction defeated the very purpose of the song, which was written in a revolutionary
spirit.
