Rai ka tadka!
Ash will dub for the Punjabi version of Provoked
Subhash K Jha
February 23, 2007 is a red-letter day for Aishwarya Rai. Her film
Provoked, featuring her as the real-life battered wife Kiranjit
Ahluwalia who murdered her husband, will be released in six different
languages. And the icing on the cake is that Ash will dub for the Hindi
and Punjabi versions herself.
Producer Dr J Murli Manohar,
who flew down from London this week to oversee the release plans
reveals, "We aren't just releasing the film in its original English
language, we're also dubbing the film into Hindi, Tamil, Telugu,
Punjabi and Spanish, and possibly a seventh language, French as well,"
he says.
Other languages will be done by dubbing artistes on her
behalf. "To expect Ash to dub in Tamil or Spanish is unrealistic. But
she's very enthusiastic about speaking in Punjabi for the first time,"
says Dr Murli.
The linguistic blitzkrieg isn't random. The producer says, "Domestic
violence isn't just an Asian phenomenon. We want the message to reach
every corner of the world."
He
intends to fly down the film's distinguished British cast for the
premiere in February. "Miranda Richardson and Robbie Coltrane are
expected to join Ash for the Mumbai premiere. And of course the real
Kiranjit Ahluwalia will attend. We'll also have a lavish premiere at
Leicester Square in London," says Dr Murli.
