MUMBAI: After playback singing, renowned singer Sunidhi Chauhan is all set to don the hat of a voiceover artiste for the upcoming 3D animated movie ‘Sons of Ram- Heroes will Rise,’ presented by Amar Chitra Katha.

Chauhan will do the voiceover for the character of Sita in the movie inspired by late Anant Pai’s famous comic ‘Sons of Rama’. The movie is a contemporary tale of brotherhood, courage and adventure, set in the backdrop of the epic Ramayana. The film narrates Luv and Kush’s journey through enchanted forests into the revered land of Ayodhya.

Elaborating her experience of being a voice artiste, Chauhan shared, “Doing a voiceover for an animated character is more difficult than singing as you don't have a ready reference. You need to understand the character and get into the role, that is when you can get your dialogues right. Doing the voiceover for Sita was difficult. She is an idealistic woman and I had to sound matured for the character. I read the dialogues then saw the film, and that is when I got it right. It was loads of fun and I feel now I can do any voiceover after recording for Sita.”

Apart for lending the voice over for the character, Chauhan will also render two songs for the movie which in all boasts four original tracks. Speaking about the movie, Chauhan added, “I am really excited about the release of the movie Sons of Ram.  Kushal offered me two songs first and once I completed it, he asked me if I would be interested in doing the voiceover for the character of Sita. I readily agreed, as I love animation. Doing the voiceover for Sita was great fun.”

The movie will release along with a short film ‘ShikariShambhu and the man eater’ in 3D and 2D on 2 November across 400 theaters in India. The movie animated by Maya Digital studios will be India’s first ever animated film to be converted from 2D to stereoscopic 3D and will be released in three languages Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
