Actor Hrithik Roshan is devoting his days to his upcoming movie ‘Kaabil’. You must know that in this Sanjay Gupta movie, Hrithik plays a blind man. In the movie, this blind man is a dubbing artist, and Hrithik was required to speak many voices. However, it was Hrithik’s rendition of megastar Amitabh Bachchan which impressed everyone to the core.
A source told a leading daily that Hrithik mimicking Big B’s baritone was impeccable. It was reportedly so flawless that everyone on the sets thought that sound engineering is the reason behind it.
“Hrithik was so uncannily close to the original that everyone on the sets assumed that sound designer Resul Pookutty had somehow engineered the voiceover,” the source told the daily.
Speaking on how he nailed Big B’s tone, Hrithik reportedly said that it is because of the deep impact the megastar left on his generation. He also added that hard work bore results in this case.
Hrithik had earlier worked in the remake of Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Agneepath’. Critics had said that he did justice to Big B’s immortal role.
Since Hrithik plays a dubbing artist, he will mimic many other celebrities in the movie. In fact, the makers wanted to bring in a mimic artist for it, but Hrithik convinced them not to.
As it happens, one of many talents of Hrithik is mimicry. So Hrithik and Resul decided to explore the latter’s talents for the movie. The source added that Hrithik’s voice impersonations worked wonders.
‘Kaabil’ will release on 26th January 2017 and stars Yami Gautam as the female lead.
