Telugu films have once again been drubbed at the National Awards. 59th National Awards were announced on Wednesday (March 7, 2012) and Byari, the first film in the Beary language spoken in coastal Kannada, and Marathi film Deool shared the award for Best Feature Film. No Telugu film is given a single award in any category, not even in the Regional Best Film (Telugu) category, a category in which only Telugu films compete. While 18 Telugu films including Bapu's Sri Ramarajyam and Nagarjuna starrer Rajanna were sent for consideration in various categories, the National Awards Jury didn't even consider them for the Regional Best Film in Telugu language.
