She talked about how voicing the character in a cartoon is very different from the Bollywood dubbing that she is used to. She was fascinated, she said, by how the character’s expressions mimicked her own. What’s more, she said she had decided from the very beginning that she would not do an Indian accent the way that it is portrayed in movies across the world but would instead use her own accent. Thank God for that!
