Smrity Sinha, an actress who has worked in both Bhojpuri and Marathi cinema, shared her insights on the differences between the two film industries. With a strong presence in Bhojpuri cinema, Sinha has also explored Marathi films, giving her a unique perspective on their workings. She recently discussed her experiences, comparing the working methods, promotional strategies, and overall environments of Bhojpuri and Marathi filmmaking.
Sinha pointed out that Marathi cinema involves the entire cast throughout the filmmaking process, from production to promotion. This differs from the practice in some other industries where only the leading actors are promoted. She noted that Marathi actors comfortably use their native language, even during promotions, unlike some Bhojpuri actors who may avoid using Bhojpuri. She believes that this unity and pride in the Marathi language contribute to the success of the Marathi film industry.
Sinha emphasized the importance of unity and a team spirit in Marathi films. She contrasted this with some negative observations within the Bhojpuri film industry. She believes that the Bhojpuri film industry must work towards fostering a collaborative atmosphere. She also spoke on the value of workshops, which is a common practice in Marathi films, involving both new and veteran actors.
