Best Of Tamil & Telugu

by jaganvaibhav • Created 6 years ago • Modified 6 years ago
Some of the best Tamil & Telugu films made. Most of the movies are from Tamil as they feel RAW & Passionately made. Whereas in Telugu it’s hardly 3-4 movies. (Sorted out by list order because Indian IMDb ratings are clueless where people rate 10/10 even if they just slightly liked it)
