Instagram is adding a new feature that lets people translate their Reels into five new Indian languages: Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Marathi.
This feature uses AI to change the voice and even the lip movements to match the new language.
It's like magic!
The feature will be available soon.
Instagram is also adding Indian fonts to its Edits app, so people can style their text in Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, and Assamese.
