I was listening to the Navya Naveli Nanda podcast with Shweta and Jaya Bachchan and they were all talking to each other in English.


Are there any celebs who talk in their native language anymore?


I can understand English being the bridge language for those who have different native languages, for example Ash is Tulu speaking and Abhishek is Hindi speaking. Or in case of Ranveer (Punjabi/Hindi) and Deepika (Kannada).


But I was watching Fabulous lives of Bollywood lives and they all speak in English too. Only with their domestic help they speak in Hindi.


What is the reason for this?

SRK speaks Hindi and English at home/with family members...depends on subject and situation. He easily switches...and when he speaks Hindi, it's rather Hindi-Hindi (not Hinglish).

How does Deepu's background work, exactly? I didn't know she was a Goan, many say she is a South Indian.

She is from Saraswat Brahmin family,based out of coastal village in Udupi. There are many konkani Brahmins and konkani speaking castes in South India especially in Udupi and kerala karnataka border.
