EXCLUSIVE: Rajesh Khattar’s Elation as Pushpa 2’s Hindi Version Triumphs Over Original – A Monumental Victory!
The Hindi version of “Pushpa 2,” originally a Telugu film starring Allu Arjun, has surpassed the original at the box office. In an exclusive interview, veteran actor Rajesh Khattar, who dubbed Fahadh Faasil’s character into Hindi, discussed the film’s success. Khattar credited the achievement to “teamwork” and emphasized his role in making the film accessible to a broader audience through dubbing. He acknowledged Fahadh Faasil’s impactful performance while noting his contribution to enhancing the film’s reach.
Khattar highlighted the importance of bringing artists’ work to audiences, mentioning how a colleague had informed him of the Hindi version’s superior box office performance compared to the original. He saw this success as a significant win for Allu Arjun, director Sukumar, and their entire team. Reflecting on the first film, Khattar admitted they hadn’t anticipated its massive success initially. However, with the sequel, there were high expectations, which have been met beyond their imagination.
Known for dubbing iconic characters like Iron Man and Captain Jack Sparrow, Khattar was asked if he felt pressure working on the second installment of “Pushpa.” He explained that, during the first film, they experimented without preconceived expectations. For SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat, played by Fahadh Faasil, they creatively mixed Haryanvi and Rajasthani dialects, resonating well with Hindi-speaking audiences. This approach was appreciated, and for the sequel, the primary concern was meeting the established standards of success.
Khattar also shared how a Rajasthani assistant, fluent in Telugu, helped him refine the character’s linguistic nuances. He praised the collaboration, explaining how they ensured the dubs were authentic and aligned well with the character of Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat. Overall, Khattar’s insights underline the importance of adept dubbing in engaging new audiences and enhancing a film’s cross-cultural appeal.
