Arjun Das shares his experience of dubbing for Kalki 2898

Arjun Das penned a long note and shared a picture from the dubbing session to thank Nag Ashwin. He wrote, “I received a call from Swapna a few weeks ago, and she said that we would like you to dub for Lord Krishna in Kalki. At first, I was a little hesitant but then she went on to say two things that you will be talking to Amitabh Bachchan and just trust us. Being a fan since was little and having tried to mimic his voice in both school and college, I wasn’t sure if I would have it in me to dub. I remember flying into Hyderabad and the moment I reached the studio, I requested the engineer to play Amitabh Sir’s dub.”

Arjun said that it took a while for everything to sink in, “From the moment I heard Bachchan Sir’s voice, it took a while for it to sink in. All I could hear was his iconic dialogues playing in my head. All those days in school saying his dialogues to an audience. And here I am actually listening to his voice and I have to share dialogues with him. Pheww! I took a few minutes to gather myself & started dubbing.”

Arjun thanked everyone including Nag Ashwin, the makers of the film, Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and everyone involved with Kalki 2898 AD for making him part of the magnum opus.

Before concluding, Arjun once again mentioned his idol and said, “As a little kid, I would have never dreamt of saying dialogues to Bachchan Sir. Thank you team Kalki. That kid has a smile on his face for a

lifetime. Bachchan Sir, if anybody ever tells me “mere paas buildinge hai, property hai, bank balance hai bungle hai, gaadi hai, kya hai tumhare paas? I will proudly say “mere paas Bachchan sir ke saath ek dialogue hai.”
