I think this is a topic which hasn't been explored before on IF. A lot of actresses have ventured out into regional cinema away from their regular Bollywood fanbase. This allows other audiences to discover their talent. Whether Tamil, Marathi, Bengali, etc. there is nothing wrong with exploring your potential. Which actress has made the most impact in regional cinema? Please share your thoughts. 😊

Versatility wise I think it must be Nagma. She had a failed career in BW though she acted with Salman in some movie I think. But she was rather successful in Tamil and worked in all 4 southern languages plus Punjabi and Marathi I think. She is still acting in some other regional cinema I think. She is a very average actress IMO, but the fact that she acted in so many industries and with so wide an audience taste is rather impressive to me.

Though you did not ask, the most versatile BW actor to do regional cinema is shockingly Jaggu dada. 😲 . Apparently he has worked in 8 or 9 languages. I was looking up Tiger 's wiki around the time of his debut and wandered to Jaggu dada's wiki and learned of this interesting titbit.

I think Aishwarya Rai and Sridevi. I never saw sridevi Tamil work ect ect. But I did saw all aish movies. And I think she was brilliant in those movies.
I think she was Great in Jeans, Iruvar, Kandukondain Kandukondain, chokher Bali, Raavanan. But my most fav was Kandukondain and chokher Bali.

And she worked with the best in regional cinema during her era - Shankar, Mani Ratnam, Rajiv Menon, Ritupharno Ghosh, Mani Ratnam. These were all great directors and all the movies did well.
