Shreyas Talpade Reveals Unique Trick to Dub Allu Arjun's Voice in Pushpa 2: Cotton in His Mouth!
December 9, 2024: Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule continues to dominate the North Indian box office, with its Hindi version setting new records and surpassing even Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan. Amid this unprecedented success, Bollywood actor Shreyas Talpade, who lent his voice to Allu Arjun’s iconic Pushparaj character in the Hindi version, revealed intriguing details about his dubbing process for the sequel.
In a recent interview, Shreyas Talpade opened up about the challenges of maintaining Pushparaj’s swagger and aggression in Pushpa 2. Unlike the first installment, where Pushpa was on a journey to rise, the sequel portrays him as a confident ruler commanding his world. This transformation required Shreyas to carefully modulate his voice to reflect Pushpa’s grit, charisma, and subtle emotions.
Shreyas described the heightened complexity of the character, saying, “This time, the character has more swag. In the first part, he was rising. Now, he’s confident. This is his rule, and that rule had to be felt. The voice needed to match his body language.”
To replicate the rugged tone required for Pushparaj, Shreyas employed an unusual yet effective trick—placing cotton in his mouth while dubbing. He explained, “In this sequel, Pushpa is often seen drinking, chewing tobacco, or smoking. To match that rough texture in the voice, I placed cotton in my mouth during the dubbing sessions. It helped bring out the ruggedness and authenticity of his character.”
Shreyas also shared how Pushpa’s unique mannerisms and subtle nuances, such as the character’s mix of aggression and emotional vulnerability, were challenging yet rewarding to capture in the voiceover.
Pushpa 2: The Rule has cemented Allu Arjun’s status as a pan-India superstar, with his performance garnering praise from all corners. The film’s Hindi version owes part of its success to Shreyas Talpade’s voice, which has seamlessly connected audiences across regions.
The blend of Allu Arjun’s compelling screen presence and Shreyas Talpade’s meticulous dubbing efforts has turned Pushpa 2 into a phenomenon, creating benchmarks for Indian cinema and redefining the role of voice artists in regional crossovers.
