Every language has its own essence, charm and cultural history. The fact is universal even for vernacular languages. Be it Hindi, Bengali, Tamil or Ol Chiki – every language has its own significance and thorough prospect.
Post colonial India has a notion of putting a lot of emphasis on the English language. In this very process, sometimes, we Indians tend to forget the significance of our mother tongues and other vernacular languages.
There is a common notion that people who are accomplished English speakers stand a greater chance of getting prestigious jobs than people who are not fluent in English and express themselves mostly in Indian languages.
According to Wikipedia, “The insidious aspects of this linguistic discrimination in various situations can prove detrimental to those students who struggle to learn the English language to be in the race with English speakers.”
But the good news is, times are changing.
The priority of regional languages is increasing day by day, expanding their scope.
On Hindi Diwas, let’s explore some of the bright career opportunities Hindi scholars can opt for.
#1. Screen-play writers:
The students who want to be screen-play writers can benefit from an academic background in Hindi language. If you are interested in Bollywood and wish to make a career out of script-writing for Hindi advertisements, films, documentaries and radio-plays, then the opportunity is worth pursuing.
