Huma Qureshi Says It Is a ‘Great Time’ for Indian Talent to Reach Global Audiences
Mumbai — Bollywood actress Huma Qureshi, who attended the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, said the current entertainment landscape is creating more opportunities for Indian talent to collaborate across borders.
“This is such a great time for Indian talent to sort of like cross pollinate and do stuff together in a more meaningful way. We’re truly in the age of like territory agnostic content,” Qureshi said in a statement.
“And I’m just here to be part of that wonderful ride.”
Qureshi’s Emmy week included an appearance at Gold House’s third annual One House Toast to the Emmys, an event celebrating multicultural achievement in television and media.
She also attended the Motion Picture and Television Fund’s 20th annual Evening Before pre-Emmy benefit at the Pacific Design Center, along with other international entertainment industry events.
Qureshi recently made her debut as a producer with “Baby Do Die Do,” in which she also played the lead role of Baby Karmarkar.
The action thriller follows Karmarkar, a deaf and mute contract killer in Mumbai who seeks revenge for the murder of her twin sister and confronts trauma from her childhood.
Qureshi was later seen in the Yash-starrer “Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups,” directed by Geetu Mohandas. The film also stars Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Tara Sutaria and Rukmini Vasanth.
The movie was reportedly made on a budget of ₹500 crore to ₹1,000 crore, making it one of the most expensive Indian films ever produced.
Despite becoming the third highest-grossing Indian film of 2026 so far, the film was reported to have underperformed relative to its production costs.
Set in an earlier era, the story unfolds in Goa, where a powerful drug cartel operates behind the facade of the coastal region’s beaches and nightlife. (Source: IANS)
