Sharad Kelkar Gives Voice To Prabhas' Character In Adipurush

Mumbai, October 1 - SS Rajamouli's Baahubali The Conclusion became a massive blockbuster in the Hindi languages, and the movie established Prabhas as one of the biggest superstars in the country. While the movie was shot in Telugu, it was actor Sharad Kelkar who gave his voice to Prabhas' Baahubali, and this played a massive role in the film's huge success. ## After "Baahubali" Prabhas dubbed his own Hindi voice in his next two films' "Saaho" and "Radhe Shyam" and this didn't go well with the Hindi audience. "Saaho" still became a hit at the Hindi box office but "Radhe Shayam" completely washed out in Hindi. And now, the makers of his next "Adipurush" are trying to apply the Baahubali formula with Prabhas. ## According to Pinkvilla, Sharad Kelkar has returned to give his voice for Prabahs' character in "Adipurush", which is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023. Prabhas plays the role of Lord Rama in the movie which will showcase Ram's warrior side. "Sharad Kelkar has dubbed for the Hindi version of Adipurush. He will be the voice of Prabhas in the film, and ones who have heard the dub are already going berserk over the quality of dubbing", says the report. ## The teaser of "Adipurush" will be launched on October 2 in Ayodhya and it is believed to be spectacular. The teaser will be launched at 7:11 PM while it will be digitally released via T-Series' YouTube channel. "The teaser launch will be followed by special Dussehra celebrations in Delhi, wherein Prabhas will burn the Ravan Effigy at the Lav Kush Ram Leela in Delhi", the report further said.## "Adipurush" is directed by Om Raut and also stars Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan, and Sunny Singh, among many others in key roles. It is produced by T-Series and Retrophiles.## Stay tuned...

PS-1 Review: Moviegoers React To Mani Ratnam's Epic Period Action Drama Film

Chennai, September 30 - Maverick filmmaker Mani Ratnam's highly-anticipated epic period action film Ponniyin Selvan: I has been released in theaters today. Mounted on a big budget and scale, the movie is based on Kalki Krishnamurthy's 1955 novel of the same name. ## Produced by Madras Talkies and Lyca Productions, "PS-1" tells the story of the early life of Arulmozhivarman, who would become the great Chola emperor Rajaraja I (947–1014). The film stars an ensemble cast of Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, Trisha, Aishwarya Lekshmi, and Sobhita Dhulipala among others. ## The movie has been receiving mostly positive responses from critics and the general audience. While the film is being praised for Mani Ratnam's direction and keeping the story true to the Novel along with solid performances by the primary cast and solid BGM by AR Rehman, it is getting criticism for lacking wow moments. ## Have a look at some of the reactions to the movie by movergeros - ## Damn! He's really done it. #ManiRatnam's #PonniyinSelvan1 is a spectacular adaptation that superbly captures the intrigue, thrills and page-turning quality of #Kalki's books.
