Feature Request: Telugu Speech-to-Text Transcription in Premiere Pro

I would like to request native Telugu speech-to-text transcription support in Adobe Premiere Pro.

Currently, Telugu is not available as a transcription language in the Speech-to-Text feature. This creates a significant gap in my editing workflow, as I regularly create content in Telugu and rely heavily on captions for accessibility and audience engagement.

At the moment, I am forced to use external AI tools to generate Telugu subtitles and then import them back into Premiere Pro as SRT files. This breaks the workflow, increases editing time, and reduces overall efficiency. It also feels limiting as a paying subscriber, since AI-powered features are expected to streamline the editing process within the software itself.

India has a rapidly growing creator ecosystem, and Telugu is one of the most widely spoken languages. Providing native support for Telugu transcription would not only improve productivity for existing users but also attract more creators to the Adobe ecosystem.

Additionally, many third-party AI tools already provide accurate Telugu transcription, which highlights the demand and feasibility of this feature.

I strongly request Adobe to consider adding Telugu speech-to-text support in upcoming updates to improve usability and workflow efficiency.
