Why SS Rajamouli was denied the National Film Award for best director ?

When the National Film Awards announced yesterday, everybody hoped that SS Rajamouli will surely get the best director award for his great work in the epic film Bahubali, which is the biggest Indian film till now. But the award was given to Sanjay Leela Bansali for the film Bajirao Mastani. In social media, people are protesting against this decision by saying that, National award juries always favors Hindi films when it comes to major awards. Malayalam cinema has been victim to these partiality many times and the acting legends from Mollywood like Mammootty, Mohanlal,Thilakan etc had lost many national awards for acting due to this politics from north Indian lobby. The same politics now made SS Rajamouli its victim.

The jury members says that both Bahubali and Bajirao Mastani came to compete in the final round. But according to them Sanjay Leela Bansali did better than Raja Mauli in terms of detailing, bringing out performance and also canning breath taking visual spectacle. That is whay they had picked Sanjay Leela Bansali for the honor. But the question remains that is Bajirao Mastani is better than Bahubali in its making..?

The common people thinks that Bahubali is by far the best made film in Indian cinema in terms of its technical perfection and its standard is close to Hollywood movies. That is why people thinks that the jury had only found some excuses which does not stand, to give award to Sanjay Leela Bansali, only because he is a north Indian director works in Bollywood.

Film lovers also says that Bahubali and SS Rajamouli had already won the awards in their heart and other awards decided by the jury does not have any value before the appreciation that comes from the heart of film lovers. Bahubali even though got the award for best film in India, the question still arises that why the director who had made the best film is not awarded by the honor of the best director. This question was earlier raised by many and popular Indian film Maker Priyadarshan also raised the same question related to the controversy regarding his film Kalapani many years ago.
