Simbu dubs for Abhishek
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,April 01 2010]
There were reports that Mani Ratnam has roped in Silambarasan for his forthcoming film and the actor called on the ace director to discuss the project. While one part of the news is true, the other part seems to be the product of a guessing game.
If sources are to be believed, Silambarasan recently met Mani, not to discuss any future project, but to dub for Abhishek Bachchan in ÂRaavanÂ, the filmmakerÂs magnum opus. ÂSince Mani found SilambarasanÂs voice apt for Abhishek, he requested the actor to dub for the Junior Bachchan, for which the latter responded positively, sources say.
This is not the first time for Silambarasan to dub for another actor. He was the one who gave voice for the protagonist of ÂSlumdog MillionaireÂ, when the Oscar-winning Danny Boyle film was dubbed in Tamil as ÂNanum KotteeswaranÂ.
An actor by profession, Silambarasan is also a director and singer. Fresh from the success of ÂVinnaithandi VaruvayaÂ, he is currently busy with the works of ÂVaalibanÂ, his directorial venture in which he also plays the lead role.
