I completely resonate with this. What looks like connectivity planning is beginning to look like a carefully engineered geographical game.
Why route it through Andhra Pradesh when a direct Hyderabad–Mysuru–Bengaluru corridor could have connected Karnataka, followed by Tamil Nadu towards Chennai and onward connectivity to Amaravati?
Instead, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu are merely touched at their capital cities, while the corridor penetrates deep into Andhra Pradesh.
The cleverest part? Karnataka and Tamil Nadu can hardly object when their capitals are included. Meanwhile, Andhra gets the substantial corridor.
As an Odia, I recognise this pattern all too well. Odisha knows what it feels like to be strategically bypassed while everyone else gets connected.
Radhika Apte has opened up about her experience working in Telugu cinema, revealing that she was asked to marry her own cousin in a film.
She also spoke about being paired opposite a much older actor and how her character was killed off halfway through the movie.
The film in question is Legend (2014), starring Nandamuri Balakrishna. But if she had a problem with the storyline or romancing an older actor, wouldn't she have known about the script and the hero before signing the film?
She agreed to do the movie back then, yet is raising these issues years later while calling out patriarchy in the industry.
