RGV's films[edit]

Does anybody have any idea if the films that RGV pumps out on his OTT platform belong here? He already made a few and there are bunch of them lined up. Can they be considered a feature film given their short-than-usual duration. I'm asking because they appear in RGV's filmography. Is their any guideline regarding this?

Comment @Ab207, PK743, TamilMirchi, and Sid95Q: There are some speculations as whether or not they should belong. I mean he releases them through Shreyas ATT which is an online theater and he makes money off of it. With the exception of Powerstar (which he could not release on Shreyas ATT due to some backlash on announcing the film) he released it on rgvworldtheatre. Now there could also be the argument that majority of these films are under 1 hour and that they do not qualify a a feature film but more as a short film.SP013 (talk) 18:17, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SP013: I think platform does not matter but length definitely matters. Just that it looks inconsistent to me that it appears in filmography but not here. -- Ab207 (talk) 18:25, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Ab207: Looking at WP: Notability (films) I do not see any time constraints and just that the film needs to be widely reported and that it should be significantly covered. SP013 (talk) 18:32, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SP013: You are right. Notability of RGV's OTT films can be established per above. Regarding time constraint, one measure can be CBFC's definition of long film which says minimum 72 minutes. -- Ab207 (talk) 18:42, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Ab207: Agree with you, length (duration) should be taken in consideration because RGV earlier films (short) like Meri Beti Sunny Leone Banna Chaahti Hai, God, Sex and Truth which were in the same format did not made to list, if at all wide coverage matters RGV's every film is widely covered for some or the other reasons.

@PK743 and Ab207: From what I understand, RGV has been making content that has been very controversial in both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana starting with Lakshmi's NTR (film on late NTR when he was the CM), Amma Rajyam Lo Kadapa Biddalu (which focuses on current politics and even had a title change from the high court due to political concerns), and Powerstar (which is a film of Pawan Kalyan after he lost the 2019 elections). There have been even more speculations as to who he will make a film on next. These 3 movies are the reason why his movies are widley covered. SP013 (talk) 14:17, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SP013 and PK743: Thanks you for input. I think RGV's short films can be mentioned at List of independent short films or List of short live-action films. If they are more than one hour we can include them here. Powerstar is 37 minutes, so its a short film. I've no idea about his other recent film or upcoming films. -- Ab207 (talk) 14:24, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
