There are many actresses in Indian cinema who gave priority to acting without caring about their mutual relationships, then they did not even look after their father, son and brother. Here we are telling you about some such heroines who have romanced the father-son pair. That is, the heroine has not only loved the hero on screen but has also romanced his father.

10 years of Prabhas' Baahubali: How SS Rajamouli made the entire country, even PM Narendra Modi, fixate on a million-dollar question
No matter whether you're a fan of the film or not, there's no denying that director SS Rajamouli's Baahubali: The Beginning, which turns 10 today (July 10), propelled Indian cinema to heights it had never imagined. Not only did it break box office records in Telugu and across India, but it also became a global talking point, shining an unprecedented spotlight on Indian cinema and paving the way for the even bigger success of its sequel, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017). While many of its aspects, including the VFX, action choreography, production design, performances, music and cinematography, collectively contributed to Baahubali: The Beginning's phenomenal success, the one element that played the most crucial and towering role was its writing. V Vijayendra Prasad and son Rajamouli, who penned the story and screenplay respectively, not only managed to tick every box required for an epic actioner, but also succeeded in crafting one of the most iconic cliffhangers in Indian cinema, showing by example how to pull off a serialised franchise. Instead of forcing a sequel that they didn't ask for on the audience, Rajamouli made nearly everyone who watched the film yearn to know the answer to the million-dollar question: Why did Kattappa kill Baahubali? Despite the story positioning Karikala Kattappa Nadar (Sathyaraj), the commander of Mahishmati's armed forces, as Amarendra Baahubali's (Prabhas) mentor and confidant — Amarendra even calls him 'Mama' (uncle) — Baahubali: The Beginning ends with Kattappa telling Amarendra's estranged son Sivudu (also played by Prabhas) that he himself was the traitor who murdered the crown prince. 'Who? Who was it (that killed my father)?' Sivudu asks, to which a teary-eyed Kattappa replies, voice choked, 'That traitor was me'. As the audience reeled in shock, Rajamouli ended the film with a now-iconic shot, which looked almost like a painting, of Amarendra Baahubali being stabbed in the back. It's rare for every aspect of a movie to peak in the climax to deliver an experience so powerful, but Rajamouli pulled it off, leaving the question 'Why did Kattappa kill Baahubali?' reverberating across the country. In fact, the cliffhanger's impact was so deep that it even found a mention by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During a 2017 election rally in Uttar Pradesh, he said, 'A film titled Baahubali had released some time back. Baahubalis look good in the film, and their bravura performance also looks good. But in the film, there was a character called Kattappa in the film, who destroyed Baahubali.' Since he didn't know the full context of the scene, Modi added that after the election results, the police baton would take care of the criminals 'like Kattappa did'. Although this climax underscored Rajamouli's mastery of the craft, Prabhas once revealed that the ending initially didn't sit well with Telugu audiences. 'In Telugu, on the first day, there was very bad talk (against the film). People had high expectations because it was Rajamouli and me. Then suddenly Kattappa comes and kills the hero. They didn't like it. It came as a shock. It felt like an abrupt cut as they'd never seen a film like that. They were worried. Till late afternoon and evening, there was very bad talk,' he said in an interview with Film Companion. But the Baahubali fever soon gripped the country, and the film eventually became the second highest-grossing Indian film worldwide at the time of its release. Also starring Anushka Shetty, Rana Daggubati, Ramya Krishnan, Tamannaah Bhatia and Nassar, the film featured cinematography by KK Senthil Kumar, visual effects by V Srinivas Mohan, editing by Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao and music by MM Keeravani. The impact of Baahubali has been such that it introduced the term 'pan-India' into the film vocabulary to describe commercial films that appeal to audiences across regions. After Baahubali, not just that filmmakers began designing mammoth projects, even films that could have been conceived on a smaller scale were inflated, assuming this was 'what the audience wanted'. Although sequels were nothing new in Indian cinema, after the Rajamouli directorial's global success, almost every project touted as 'pan-Indian' was envisioned as a franchise. But where many of these subsequent franchises faltered was that Rajamouli and Vijayendra Prasad genuinely had enough material to split Baahubali into two films in a way that felt organic. In contrast, all that the others did was blindly replicate the Baahubali formula by splitting their stories into multiple parts without having enough content for even a single feature-length film. In a way, it can be said that Rajamouli and the question 'Why did Kattappa kill Baahubali?' succeeded in making audiences wait eagerly for nearly two years to get closure, and ensuring that when it finally came, they felt it was completely worth it, thanks to the sequel's quality, something none of the copycats have managed to achieve since.

‘Mitti' review: Big dreams and ground realities in show about farming
'Modern famine' is a phrase rarely heard in shows on streaming platforms. Amazon MX Player's Mitti might be an inspirational series about a marketing executive who decides to become a farmer. But the Hindi show also smuggles in truths about the problems faced by Indian agriculturists, from debt to unpredictable weather patterns. Raghav (Ishwak Singh) is adept at selling 'Bharat' to urban Indians. But when it's time for an actual return to roots, Raghav finds his presentation skills falling short. Raghav's beloved grandfather Sudarshan (Yogendra Tiku) has accumulated a huge loan on his plot of cultivated land. Memories of happier times spent in the field, the desire to reclaim Sudarshan's honour, and a stubborn need to succeed at farming persuade Raghav to take over Sudarshan's operation. The obstacles include the loan recovery agent Girdhari (Sharat Sonu), who is as nasty as they come. Naysayers scorn Raghav's inexperience. Raghav's girlfriend Stuti (Diksha Juneja) back in the city starts to run out of patience. The weather does its own thing. There are locusts and nilgais to tackle. With the the help of the no-nonsense government official Kritika (Shruti Sharma) and the experience of other farmers, Raghav gains a better understanding of what he needs to do. Kritika's support points to the positive role that committed administrators can play in making farming profitable. The eight-episode show, written by Nikhil Sachan, Akash Chawla and Arunava Joy Sengupta, does a fine job of layering a feel-good premise with ground realities. Especially in the early episodes, Raghav's dilemmas and challenges are within the realm of possibility. In a poignant scene, Raghav's father reminds him of the sacrifices that have been made to ensure a better life beyond the village. Sudarshan too tells Raghav that while ripened fruit gets sent to the city, the tree on which it is grown stays back. Romanticising farming doesn't help Raghav one bit – directors Gangajeet Singh and Alok Kumar Dwivedi ably bring out this truth. Mitti unfolds in unglamorous settings and has welcome detailing about farming culture, from discussions about soil analysis to events where cultivators proudly show off their produce. The show loses some of its rigour in the later episodes, which feel like a PowerPoint presentation by the agriculture ministry. The leap from failure to success via tech hacks seems far too easy. Although the makers succumb to the kind of pep talk given by Raghav in his previous avatar, Mitti distinguishes itself from similarly themed shows simply by picking an unusual theme and following it with curiosity for the most part. Apart from a compelling performance by Ishwak Singh, the show has a fine turn by Alka Amin as Raghav's grandmother. Pranjal Pateriya and Piyush Kumar play Raghav's sidekicks, who are to Mitti what Faisal Malik and Chandan Roy are to Jitendra Kumar in the popular Prime Video series Panchayat. In several ways, Raghav is a foil to Panchayat 's Abhishek, who struggles to fit into a village. Raghav's return journey is more dreamy-eyed, but Mitti manages to make this dream appear within reach.
