Vettaiyan: Prakash Raj’s voice for Amitabh Bachchan to be replaced with AI



A few days back, the makers of Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan released the movie’s prevue, which gave an idea of what to expect from the film. As we reported earlier, Vettaiyan is about fake encounters, and the movie will explore the judiciary, police, and entrepreneurial systems. TJ Gnanavel, who earlier directed Jai Bhim, is helming this action drama. The movie will be out in theatres on 10th October. Amitabh Bachchan is playing a crucial role.

In the prevue released, Prakash Raj dubbed for Amitabh Bachchan, and this wasn’t liked by many. Prakash Raj is a prominent actor in the country, and hence, his dubbing for Bollywood Shahenshah looked odd. Netizens felt Amitabh’s character wouldn’t make the desired impact if the dubbing issue persisted. The team has taken note of this constructive feedback and came up with a smart move.

We will be hearing Amitabh’s voice for all language versions of Vettaiyan in theatres. Amitabh’s voice was enhanced in all versions with the help of AI, and hence, we can expect much better quality in the final cut. We will get more clarity on this once the trailer is out.

The technological advancements are creating wonders, and we have seen its impact in films like Indian 2 and The GOAT, where the late legends are brought on screen using AI. Let’s see how well Vettaiyan team makes use of the technology. Lyca Productions bankrolled this biggie.
