Speaking about the balance between Bollywood and regional cinema, Tamannaah was quoted by The Hindustan Times as saying, "Even when I had three Hindi films happening at the same time. Tamil and Telugu will always be an important industry considering I started my career there. I owe all the name and fame I have earned to regional cinema. Even my Hindi film that did well was Baahubali, which was also from South. My loyalties are definitely there."
