Talk:NOTA (film)

Telugu CBFC Certificate

@Ab207 and Cyphoidbomb: After watching this film on Prime in Telugu [1]. The CBFC certificate for the film shows that it is not dubbed into Telugu (As they usually would for a dubbed film). This makes me come to the conclusion that some bits were also shot in Telugu. I would like to get your guys' input on this. SP013 (talk) 05:35, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

@SP013: We have multiple reliable sources saying that the film is bilingual. Unclear why was it not mentioned in the first place. [2], [3], [4],[5] -- Ab207 (talk) 09:53, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Ab207, I think it was unclear due to the fact that the film when being dubbed seemed that the entire film was shot in Tamil and then dubbed into Telugu (Like Mahanati was) but however the CBFC Certificate proves that this film was bilingual. SP013 (talk) 14:27, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

@Kailash29792:@Ab207: This is only partially reshot in Telugu, meaning that most of it is dubbed.

• However, the Telugu audience would be in for a shock to find out that NOTA is merely a Tamil-dubbed film
• Nota is a Tamil film dubbed in Telugu
• But it is funny that the movie was promoted as a bilingual; it was clearly shot only in Tamil.
• the movie is actually a Tamil movie dubbed into Telugu. DareshMohan (talk) 06:52, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

Proposed change

NOTA (transl. None of the above) is a 2018 Indian political thriller film directed by Anand Shankar. → NOTA (transl. None of the above) is a 2018 Indian Tamil-language political thriller film directed by Anand Shankar.

Include this sentence in the Production section:

• The film was partially reshot in Telugu.

@SP013: Which bits were reshot? (can't find it) DareshMohan (talk) 07:35, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

@DareshMohan Sorry for the late reply but I genuinely do not know. From what I know is that the CBFC distinguished the Telugu version as not being dubbed so with that we went with that it was made in both languages. SP013 (talk) 00:50, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
