Hansika Motwani: Regional films are a concept that only exists in India
The regional films label, according to actress Hansika Motwani, only widens the gap between the diverse content being churned out in the Indian entertainment industry.
“I’ve noticed that while the concept of ‘Regional’ movies exists within our country, the rest of the world sees our films as ‘Indian Movies.’” “The scenario has completely changed now, especially after the remarkable success of certain films from the South,” Motwani says.
“The pan-Indian culture, which encompasses the collaboration of actors and technicians across the country, has opened up a new market,” she continues.
As an example, the 30-year-old cites the remake trend to demonstrate how content has always bridged regional divides.
“There has always been a mutual exchange among the regional industries through remakes, even before this culture (of pan-India films) arose.” When a concept, idea, or story receives a lot of positive feedback, it’s time to remake it. It’s encouraging to see that, in every region with red carpets, people are now accepting films. It’s a positive sign, as it raises the profile of Indian cinema on the international stage,” says the actor, who works primarily in Tamil and Telugu films.
“There have been many instances where international films were available at film festivals for limited audiences,” Motwani continues, “but today, we are finding Korean and Japanese films released in movie theatres.” Our superstar Rajinikanth’s films, on the other hand, became box office hits in Japan during the 1990s. You can now see Baahubali’s and RRR’s box office figures.”
On the small screen, the actor made her debut with Shaka Laka Boom Boom, followed by Des Mein Niklla Hoga Chand, Koi… Mil Gaya, and Aap Kaa Surroor. Engeyum Kadhal, Velayudham, Oru Kal Oru Kannadi, Theeya Velai Seiyyanum Kumaru and Singam II, and Aranmanai helped her establish a strong base in other regions.
Her transition from Hindi to another language was seamless, with no stereotypes or prejudices to contend with.
“Female actors have always been supported and respected in every industry, be it Hindi or other regional domains.” In any industry, there are advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I’ve always received a great deal of respect, love, and support from everyone in the industry. “I’ve never experienced stereotypes or prejudices as a child actor or as a female lead actress,” she concludes.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”
In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
