Baahubali engulfed small films like a supermarket engulfed grocery shops: Joy Mathew
The entire country might be raving over Baahubali 2, but not Joy Mathew. The actor recently took to facebook to express his concern over how a big budget film like Baahubali has literally buried smaller Malayalam films with its massive appeal. Joy Mathew compares Baahubali to the arrival of supermarkets, malls and hypermarkets, which led to the death of small grocery shops.

"While these grocery shops were also meeting points to exchange chit-chat, not of plain business, like in the bigger shops," he writes. "We get everything at one place from a mall, but does that mean we should forget the small shops? Salim Kumar's 'Karutha Joothan' and Pramod's 'Gold Coin' are up for release. They are like the small grocer's shops, full of goodness, and they shouldn't get washed away in the tsunami of the big releases."
Joy Mathew goes on to say that the Kerala Government should impose taxes on other language films, so that it benefits the State as well.
