The Bhojpuri film industry, also known as Bhojpuri cinema, has a rich history dating back to the 1960s. With its roots in the Bhojpuri-speaking regions of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, the industry has produced numerous iconic films and actors over the years. However, it wasn't until the 2000s that Bhojpuri cinema started gaining mainstream recognition, with films like "Sasura Bada Taarak" (2005) and "Mauja Hi Mauja" (2007) achieving widespread success.
