Actor and filmmaker Manish Raisinghani believes that compelling storytelling transcends geographical and cultural boundaries. He emphasizes that stories rooted in genuine emotions have a broad international appeal. Raisinghani highlights the universality of cinema, noting that emotions naturally surpass language barriers.
In today’s world, language differences are less significant due to the widespread availability of subtitles and dubbing, according to Raisinghani. He observes a growing openness among audiences towards consuming international content.

Raisinghani also mentions the enduring popularity of films like “Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge” starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol across various regions. He emphasizes that storytelling is fundamentally about perspective, as audiences are interested in the unique viewpoints of filmmakers. Raisinghani praises filmmakers like Rajkumar Hirani for emotional storytelling, S. S. Rajamouli for imaginative narratives, Anurag Kashyap for realism, and Aditya Dhar for intense storytelling.
Manish Raisinghani, known for his roles in shows like “Sasural Simar Ka,” “Kaahin Kissii Roz,” and “Kahiin to Hoga,” has ventured into vertical storytelling formats with projects such as “Fake Boyfriend Ka Funda” and “Jallad CEO.”
